Timeless fine jewelry that defines elegant simplicity

Blog-2311
This weekend, during our Summer of Fun, we took a mini-vacation to Carmel Valley Ranch.  What an incredible place!  Seriously.  This place is absolutely amazing.  Set in the Santa Lucia mountains.  The resorts boasts amazing golf, gorgeous hiking trails, a vineyard, tennis, two beautiful pools, a splash pad for the littles, a bocce ball court, yoga and many activity options. And that is to say nothing of the incredibly luxurious accomodations.  They are simply divine!  Nestled in the mountains, you absolutely cannot find a bad view in this place.  Lavender and vineyards abound, making this a wonderful place to relax…and play.  And did I mention the food?  Yum.
The pools are fantastic.  We loved that they have an adults-only pool and a kid-friendly one as well.  Its so nice being able to take the littles swimming without worrying that they are bugging someone who is there to relax.  The kids pool area has lunch and snacks and an eating area with plenty of high chairs (seriously, this place is so kid-friendly!)  There’s a hot tub, a splash pool with fountains that the kids can run in and a bocce ball court.  So fun!

I began creating as a child with simple jewelry pieces and various art projects. Twenty years ago, I started creating jewelry for myself. It wasn’t long before friends and family began asking me to make pieces for them. Soon after, Andrea Montgomery Designs was officially born. My desire is to make timeless jewelry that makes you feel more beautiful each time you wear it -- which we hope is always! My philosophy is to WEAR THE GOOD STUFF everyday. There’s no such thing as “saving it for a special occasion” -- every day is a gift!
