As I’ve mentioned before, I am a bit of a fashion spaz. I love every kind of look and there isn’t really just one particular look that can truly define my style. It’s like I have multiple fashion personalities…and…together, I keep those multiple personalities in check. (man…sometimes I just crack myself/us up.)
They all do try to talk to me: “You should buy that.” – “No, you should not buy that.” – “But you totally need it.” – “Maybe… but not in THAT color.” It’s maddening! There is, however, one thing that all of my slightly wackadoodle voices can agree upon: Buy ANYTHING you possibly can from Pamela Adger at Travelers Market.
Pamela Adger Earrings and Ring
Earrings: hand-made wooden and silver pludents from Bali, silver discs & beads from Afghanistan & Ethiopia || Ring: Black resin, brass & silver (sun & moon)
Where exactly is Travelers Market? Well – let me first ask if you have ever attended the yearly International Folk Art Market in Santa Fe? Do you love it? If so, Travelers Market is kind of a mini version of the International Folk Art Market – but is available to you all year ’round!
Travelers Market is located in Santa Fe on the backside of DeVargas Center. I was told by my Fashionable Friend that I absolutely must go check it out – so I did! That’s where I discovered Pamela Adger and her amazing jewelry. Pamela is completely in-tune with Mother Nature and has a respect for all cultures – past and present. All of her pieces reflect this love.
Rings: sea urchin, fossil woods, jade, Tibetan buttons, naturally-dropped deer crown || Bracelet: Moroccan prayer box
I am forever asked where I purchased my earrings and ring. Now YOU know! I think Pamela is fab-u-lous. She’s even written a book “All things have a voice.” (By the way…if you’ve ever wanted to self publish, you could try your hand at that here)
But there’s more. Travelers Market has 45 different dealers of fine tribal & folk art, antiques, books & jewelry. There are also a variety of shows and events that take place there. The first time I popped in there was an African exhibition on display. The next time I went back, they were cooking Peruvian foods.
You just need to go there and hang out. I did, and that gorge wooden necklace with the coral and turquoise went home with me as well.
I blame the voices…

Thanks for sharing, Jamie! Fab stuff!
Looks like a great place to see some unique things. Will have to plan to stop by on my next trip to Santa Fe. Thanks for the heads up Jamie!
Lots of interesting beads, etc to incorporate into your own designs!
