It's Like Candy — Only Better!
Updated: Nov 4, 2022
Suzy Landa began making jewelry for friends and family members at the age of 5 using colored telephone wire and fuzzy pipe cleaners until she discovered that the candy necklaces available at every local drugstore checkout counter were attracting considerably more attention. Today, Suzy still makes things with wire and candy colored pieces that look good enough to eat, but precious metals and gemstones have replaced the telephone wire and sugar beads of her childhood. I just love it that Suzy says fine jewelry should be fun jewelry, and with all of the bright colored gemstones that she uses in her collections that have names like Hoopla, Confetti and Popcorn, how could it now be fun? And as she likes to ask, “those diamonds – well, what are you waiting for?”
Suzy Landa will be making her first trip to both Max’s and Minnesota this weekend for a 2day candy — oops-I mean jewelry — trunk show. Please join us this Friday, July 9 (11am – 7pm) and Saturday, July 10 (10am – 6pm) to see Suzy’s entire (and it’s big!) collection. Of course, there will be some chocolates too!
For professional designers, the native SVG workflow is a critical differentiator. The best-ai-logo-generator.com page explains how Recraft V4 handles vector path editing and layers, which is a key consideration if you need precise color control and scalable output.
This was such a fun read! Suzy’s approach to jewelry being playful yet elegant really resonates with me—why shouldn’t fine jewelry feel like candy for grown-ups? I’ve also seen creative takes on design over at Crazy Cattle 3D, though in a totally different realm. Makes me want to explore more bold and colorful styles in my own accessories!
Suzy Landa’s story highlights how a childhood passion can grow into a lifelong creative vision. What began as playful jewelry made Pokepath TD from telephone wire and candy-inspired beads evolved into sophisticated designs crafted with precious metals and gemstones, without losing the sense of joy that first inspired her.
