I started making jewellery by accident. In 2005 I lost an earring that was very dear to me and decided to try to recreate it. It did NOT turn out very well, but it sparked an interest in jewellery making that has since evolved into something much more.

The thing about being self-taught is that you don't follow guidelines and tend to take more risks. The result is a more creative and less conventional product. I don't follow rules and I don't limit myself. There is no one to tell me I can't do something because I am the boss and I love that.

Over the last 7 1/2 years my jewellery has changed dramatically. Having access to a huge variety of supplies on Etsy and other online venues has made this change possible. I have also merged my love of painting and jewellery design to create hand painted items. The use of paint and antiquing mediums has added endless possibilities that are truly exciting. I look forward to a constant evolution of myself and my business, and I am proud to share my creations with you.
