Hello,
If you asked me three years ago what I would be doing today, it certainly wouldn't be running a shop online, selling beautiful sparkly gemstone jewelry. I never imagined I would be making so much stuff and having others wanting to buy it!
One day I found a pair of beautiful gemstones wrapped in sterling silver wire and they were just so enchanting to me! I had to figure out how to do it!
That was when I wanted to know everything I could about gemstones. I didn't even realize there were so many kinds as well as what top drilled or faceted really meant. I became an addiction to me and all of the sudden I had an Etsy shop up and running!
It took me a while to get my photography up to par. My first photos of my jewelry were so terrible I am surprised I even sold them! I have come a long way since then and I know I still have so much more to go. Life is a learning experience and I find myself always growing and changing by the day. What I thought was unattractive last year, I find truly beatiful and amazing.
Five years ago, I gave birth to the most amazing little guy I had ever seen. He changed my world completely and if it weren't for him, I probably wouldn't be here selling jewelry. I was able to quit my accounting job to be a full time mother. When he was about a year old, I started to get my itch to make something, to help my family bring in a little bit of extra income to help out around the home. A LOT of research and trial and error, I have slowly found my way into what I feel is a little bit of my soul being expressed through my jewelry.
