A big thanks to all you blog readers! If you hadn’t been so supportive of this blog, maybe I wouldn’t have continued writing it for over a year<\/a>. If I hadn’t continued, I wouldn’t have written about designer Christian Francis Roth<\/a>. If I hadn’t written about Christian, he wouldn’t have contacted me<\/a>. And if he hadn’t contacted me, I wouldn’t be doing jewelry for his new line.<\/p>\n

Yep, I’m making my first venture into “fashion jewelry<\/a>” to accessorize Christian’s new clothing line, Francis. Christian wants to give the line some combination of our names. I want to call the line “Sam Waterston’s Eyebrows<\/a>” but he doesn’t think that is a good idea. What can I say? Not everyone has refined taste like mine.<\/p>\n

Some of you may have seen shots of Christian’s new line in WWD yesterday<\/a>. My rings were shot, but that photo didn’t make it into the paper. Of course not! WWD only covers me when I do something really, REALLY important<\/a>. Luckily, I brought my own craptastic camera to the shoot on Tuesday, so here’s the news that wasn’t fit to print.<\/p>\n

First, we’ve got two models wearing pieces from Christian’s line. That plaid blazer is so mine! You can count on my wearing that soon. The blonde is wearing my rings on her left hand.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Here are a few more photos.<\/p>\n

Stay tuned for more jewelry designs, plus price information.<\/p>\n

Oh, and one more blog-related fan letter needs to go out to Gnarlitude Jen<\/a>, who put my skull ring on the Urban Outfitters blog<\/a>. Thanks, Jen!<\/p>\n

UPDATED FEBRUARY 2010 TO ADD: It was fun while it lasted, but all good things must come to an end. Click here<\/a> for more information. All the jewelry is still available on my website<\/a>.<\/p>\n
