Tagua Nut Jewelry




It’s been called the “vegetable ivory”— the tagua nut!
Found in palm trees across South America, it can be fashioned into beautiful pieces of jewelry. Crafters spend hours carefully carving each nut to create the desired form.
This weekend, I meet jewelry designer Cindy Vega at the Wynwood Green Market! She is clearly an expert when it comes to sculpting the tagua. She told me that the nut is very hard, resembling an ivory—hence the nickname! 
I fell in love with her designs—and bought two pieces! 
You can see more of her work at her facebook page!

Wynwood Green Market



It’s an “Organic Party”—complete with food, music and of course shopping. Welcome to “Sundays On The Green”—in Wynwood. A vacant lot is transformed into a mini festival of sorts- where eco-friendly vendors, food trucks and musicians set up shop.
The spot is right next to “The Armory”—on Northwest 23rd Street in Miami.  My husband and I found the fair by accident this weekend—while driving through downtown.  We were both very impressed with the effort to create a family friendly environment—in an area that only seemed to have life during Wynwood’s Artwalk.
For more information head over to www.WynwoodGreen.org! The event is every last Sunday of the month—check it out!
