Ida Estelle

Accessories – Denver

Never in a million years would I have guessed this would be a chapter in my life. After a college degree, four successful years with a company I loved, three different cities and a year of self-reflection, I have found my passion as a creator, designer and entrepreneur. I have always been a fan of a \\\"DIY\\\" project. I grew up in a house where my mom painted a room, re-painted that room, and painted it one more time. My sister has a fantastic knack for spying out the one jewel in a pile of junk. My dad and grandpa were masters of tinkering. There wasn\\\'t a project out there they couldn\\\'t MacGyver their way through. It wasn\\\'t until I was home for the holiday\\\'s one year that I realized who the real backbone of this DIY family really was…my Grandma Micki. I remember showing her these \\\"killer new bracelets\\\" I was learning how to make for gifts, and telling her I wish I could turn that fun project into a career. She didn\\\'t miss a beat telling me about her mother, Ida Estelle, a self-proclaimed Jack-of-all-trades. She was an entrepreneur, furniture builder, seamstress and mother of four...all during the depressing. It didn\\\'t occur to me at the time, but my grams has always been a champion for following your dreams, working hard and getting it done...whatever \\\"it\\\" may be. She truly gave me the inspiration for my jewelry line Ida Estelle.
