A Tea Leaf jewelry 🍃 Alissa

I’m Alissa Thiele (pronounced Tea-lee) and my jewelry line is A Tea Leaf. Get it? It's true, I do drink tea... preferably a minty tea. 🍃🫖☕
Here’s the gold snail necklace hanging out on a piece of citrine from my collection. 🐌 I redesigned this piece not long ago. Same snail spirit, just a little more bold & intentional.

Sometimes a design just calls for a fresh take. This lil snail started as a sketch, but I recently gave it a whole new look. It’s more defined but still inspired by the snails I spot while hiking in the Columbia Gorge. 🏞️

I love the clean silhouette & how it captures these tiny trail friends.

Back at the St. Johns Bizarre this Saturday! It’s been a minute — last time I did this event was 2011 (!!). Find me at booth 127 near 7425 N Leavitt Ave with nature-inspired jewelry, earrings, new ear jacket designs, mystery bags, rainbow-making suncatchers, and sale pieces. 💗

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I love giving vintage beads a new life. ♻️🌱🫶 I found these sweet bellflower beads a few years back and finally turned them into something special.

They’re now live — hope you love them!

Deep in the forest, I stumbled upon the sweetest surprise, bell-shaped flowers, each adorned with the tiniest raindrops. 🌧

These whimsical earring jackets will be blooming into the sh🤍p this Friday!

Took a break for some gorge time (the Columbia Gorge—get it, haha), & a little sparkle came along for the adventure! Loved how the sunlight danced through my newest earrings like mini sun catchers. Check out my Stories to see some forest blooms & even a critter I met along the hike to Emerald Falls.

I’ve been playing around with resin lately and decided to add some color to my Sun & Moon earrings!

Bending brass wire to make the stems for my cherry earrings. 🍒 It’s been a bit of a learning curve working with brass in this way & even the same gauge wire can feel different from piece to piece. It’s a bit of a challenge, but the challenge is part of the fun.

I just refreshed my pixie cut, 💇 so I thought I’d show off another new design from my upcoming collection. I snapped a selfie to give you a feel of how they look. ❤️❤️❤️ These tiny red glass hearts, which I carefully wire-wrapped together with some huggie hoops, give you that #QueenOfHearts look 👑❤️
