In the 1980's
my personal jewelry collection was a variety of
outrageous neon baubles. In the 5th grade jewelry making became my new
way to make money, which mostly consisted of attaching earring hooks
to charms from my plastic charm necklace. As I grew older I taught myself
how to make the jewelry I had seen in stores. I dabbled in Fimo clay,
glass beads, macrame, and seed beads all before I was 14. My jewelry
took a new turn after I landed a "dream job" in college at
a bead store. Now, using semi-precious and precious stones with sterling
silver and gold, I am excited to see the different stages my jewelry
has gone through.
Making jewelry, for me, is therapeutic and fun. I hope
you find something you like!
