Accessories – Minneapolis

I\'ve been designing and creating jewelry for over 17 years. Since that start, I have ventured into other interests, some tried, some not yet. My family are all creative folks, with my parents being talented painters. I on the other hand have trouble drawing a stick figure, so I chose a different path into other forms of art that I am passionate about. I adore the creative process. Sometimes it can come from the most unexpected places. I believe that everyone should have something beautiful that has meaning to them whether it be something new or old. I chose the name Bella Mi\' to reflect two things: first my Italian heritage, and secondly the meaning of the words, \"beautiful me\", which is something I think everyone needs to find in themselves.
