I think of Jewelry as Art that we wear...I have had a passion for long, colorful dangly earrings since I was a teenager ,my friends always said they wouldn't know me without them...so Designing jewelry was the next step naturally for me. I have been a Designer for over 30 years now and I am a member of SRAJD # 1751 (Self-Representing Artist Jewelry Designers).I love creating OOAK jewelry designs for women with a flair for color and style. I use only the finest quality materials as well as handcrafted Lampwork Beads from artists all over the world. A woman's jewelry should reflect her personality and style ,so I strive to provide a variety of styles for everyone from daytime wear to nighttime glam.....I hope you will love my creations as much as I enjoy making them.

I founded Aries Designs and Gifts in 1992 and since then I started Aries Designs Too ... I have gone on to selling my designs in several local shops and in other locations in NJ. I have been a designer and teacher for over 26 years in both the Jewelry and Floral Design industry. I have taught both after school programs for kids and adult classes as well in jewelry design , floral design and other areas.
As years have gone by I have turned all of my inspiration into creating a unique line of one of a kind original jewelry designs

You may have guessed … I ‘m an Aries….
In my early years I started by painting and designing clothes and jewelry for myself .I was entered in the New Jersey Teen Arts Festival 3 years in a row in High School. As both an Artist and a member of our High School Stage Band .
I have always enjoyed working with 3 dimensions and loved flowers so I went into the floral business in 1982 a where I learned from a Master Floral Designer and teacher.I worked as a designer in several shops and attended Design School where I expanded my training from just floral to include Jewelry Design as well. I worked in several local shops before deciding to branch out. I became the designer and crafts manager for a newly opened Rag Shop and won several innovative design awards from wholesale craft distributors While I was there I taught everything from floral design to fabric painting. I worked as Designer and Teacher in 2 other shops before opening my own floral and gift shop in 1992 called Aries Designs and Gifts where I sold floral designs as well as my own handcrafted items including my own jewelry.

After moving in 1998 I opened a new shop called Aries Designs Too, also floral gift and jewelry as well. After becoming somewhat handicapped I had to close my shop so I starting selling my designs in local shops and then opened my online store Aries Designs Too...all That
Glitters isn’t always ‘Gold’ on Ebay from 2004 to 2005 and then opened my shop on Yahoo from 2005 to fall of 2007 when I opened my shop on Ruby Lane.

Even at my age I love funky dangling earrings and wouldn’t be caught dead without them. I have always loved beautiful things , and I enjoy Art in any form. Being a Designer Professionally has given me a lifetime of enjoyment in being able to create beautiful things for myself and others.I strive to provide exquisite designs, made from fine quality materials and provide excellent service to my customers. I hope you enjoy my creations as much as I enjoy designing them.
