Some of my earliest and fondest memories as a little girl are of my mother placing me in the middle of her bed. One-by-one she would take out the most exquisite pieces of jewelry from her dresser drawer. Some pieces were vintage, many were antique, and some were amazingly handmade. She would lay them on the bed telling me the story behind every piece, watching me as I inquisitively admired each one.

Today, my Mother is gone but many of her beautiful pieces that I once admired as a little girl have been passed on to me. I cherish every one of them along with the beautiful memories of her, and am so thankful for the love of jewelry that she instilled in me so many years ago.

On any given day you can find me in my studio, designing, or out and about with my husband, children and dogs at local markets in search of unique vintage and antique components to pass on to you to use in your own hand made designs.
