Dear daughter, You walk through life with a kind heart, a brilliant mind and a soul that is far deeper than I could ever dream. You are a gift. I love you more than you will ever know. Happy Daughter’s Day. Oxox, Mom @eliza.lytle99

It’s me again - I can’t let another day go by without telling you about this thing ..... I’m sure you’ve heard by now, but thanks to @thedesignnetwork my sweet little workroom received a once in a lifetime makeover. @lsginteriors and her team of miracle makers transformed my messy, cluttered workroom into a space that I couldn’t love any more if I tried. When you start a business by accident, like I did, you don’t always have the privilege of time to organize and create a workspace that is ideal for growth and inspiration. I’m so proud of my new workroom and have big love for the amazing teams that poured their hearts and talents into my space. In case you missed the show 🎥 http://www.tdn.tv/videos/entrepreneur-epiphany @lsginteriors @_katlynwilson @theessancedesignpainting @furniturelandsouth @jasonharrisfls @woosterbrushcompany #makeover #creative #jewelrydesigner #luckyme

I thought maybe I should reintroduce myself since our Insta page has been pretty quiet this year. But HighStrung certainly hasn’t been and one day I’ll be smart enough to find a way to manage both of our social media platforms. Nonetheless ..... My name is Caroline Lytle and I am the owner and creator of HighStrung - we celebrated our 7th year in August!!!! That almost seems unreal. And perhaps that’s because I never intended for HighStrung to become a business. I suppose things just work out like they are supposed to and I can’t be anymore grateful. I’m a mama to a handsome 5th grader who has had my number since the day he was born and a beautiful 6th grade daughter who takes my breath away on the daily. She is truly everything I wish I was. I’m also a wife of 19yrs to my sweet Eric, who keeps me grounded when life gets hectic. I have always loved working with my hands and I have been making things and selling them since I was old enough to knock on doors and walk down the street by myself. I suppose that makes me a serial entrepreneur. But really that’s just the means to my end of creating. Nothing brings me more joy than to make a unique piece of jewelry that I continue to see year after year worn in family photos, graduation and all of life’s biggest celebrations. Colors, textures, style, textiles, leathers make my heart beat faster and I hope that energy shows through the pieces that I create. So to all those that have supported HighStrung over the years - thank you and if you are just finding us- welcome!! I’ve got so much to tell about what’s been happening in the workroom thanks to @thedesignnetwork and @lsginteriors but they deserve their own post- so I suppose you might just see 2 post from me in 1 day. #jewelry #jewelrydesigner #mama #creative #finerthings More to come .........

I bet y’all thought we closed up shop since it’s been about a year since my last Insta post. (sigh) One of these days I will figure out how to better align my social media pages since this one gets ignored 90% of the year. But no time like the present to let you know that we dropped Fall 2020 to the website and I hope you love it as much as we do!

When your college bud of 25 yrs ago becomes a now VIP in the world of blogging, motherhood, child advocacy, and tell life like it is, celeb and tags you in a post🙋‍♀️(thanks Adrian) - you better crawl out of Insta hiding and show all these new followers/friends what @talesofaneducateddebutante was toting to the State game ..... we are two working mamas that spend way to much time sewing, painting and stringing jewelry to figure out Instagram but if you want to see what we are up to on the daily - join our FB group. 👉 link in bio.

First Session of Camp Creative in the books. What a joy it was to spend the week with 11 extra talented Creatives. #creatives #daycamp #painting #sewing #beading #youth #talent #love #highstrung #finerthings #raisethemright #raisethemkind #giveback #love

Between 2 interesting pregnancies, a premature baby, a fragile hearted husband and my silly noggin I’ve spent lots of time hanging out with nurses. They have held my hands, wiped tears, brought more warmed blankets than I can count, stayed on top of doctors, calmed my fears, hugged me when I needed it the most and advocated for my babies health, Eric’s health and my health, when we couldn’t. These special people deserve a day - and there is no more special nurse to me than Clyda Wood Pasquantonio. She has been by my side for over 20 years. She has this 6th sense of knowing when I’m not feeling well before I do, she can give a great post surgery shower when everyone else is scared of you, and above all - she is the brightest thing to ever walk in a room. I know that over all of her years in nursing she has blessed so many with her quick wit and level headed bed side manner. So happy nurses day - to all the amazing nurses out there! Perfect day to give you a sneak peek of our Summer Clyda Necklace. Just as bright and fun as the real Clyda. 💚❤️🧡💙 Oxox Caroline #nursesday #love #care #healthcare #nurse #handmadejewelry #clydanecklace #finerthings #color #necklace #africanbeads #workingmom

This morning Steph and I spent doing our least favorite part of this gig- modeling. 😅 We would both rather stay in our cozies and bead and sew but we get through it, together. A lot of laughs, a few spills but no one got wet.
