Midcoast & Penobscot Bay

Mimi Steadman Handmade Jewelry

The colors, shapes, sizes, and textures of semi-precious stones and freshwater pearls take hold of my imagination as I envision all the different ways to combine them, wrap them in wire, set them off with chain, and ultimately make them into jewelry designed to stand out from the ordinary.

I also pair vintage sea glass with such jewels as amethysts, freshwater pearls, and rose quartz. It seems totally appropriate to put the gems and sea glass together, as in both cases their unique beauty has been forged by Nature.

Every week on Penobscot Bay, the 12 vessels in the Maine Windjammer Association provide cruises that transport guests back to the golden age of sail where deadlines and itineraries take a back seat to relaxation and beauty. Most of the windjammers are turn-of-the-century wooden cargo schooners that have been retrofitted to carry passengers. More than half are National Historic Landmarks.
