Do you follow me on Instagram<\/a>? If not, you should, because that’s where you might get a chance to pre-order my newest designs or get an early shot at a sale.<\/p>\n

For instance, I gave a sneak peek of my new SLAY stud earrings on IG last month<\/a> …<\/p>\n

The next SLAY studs will be made to order, so please allow two weeks for delivery. You can order the pair or just one earring, because you know I love those single earrings<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I had been meaning to add SLAY to my collection of word<\/a> and letter<\/a> jewelry for ages, but I had a grand vision of a big, complicated, difficult piece. Then, in February, Beyonc\u00e9 blew me away with her video for the song “Formation,”<\/a> with its repeated “I slay” lyrics.<\/p>\n

After that, I wanted to have my SLAY piece done yesterday, but that wasn’t going to happen with the design I had in mind. That’s when I recalled the wise words of Frank the Pug in Men in Black<\/em>:<\/p>\n

I had also had word studs on my to-do list for a long time. All I had to do was change my SLAY design to stud earrings, and I’d accomplish two goals at once. So that’s what I did. Thanks to Beyonc\u00e9 and Frank the Pug for the inspiration.<\/p>\n
