Accessories – Seattle

I'm born and raised in Seattle, love animals and am very active in volunteering and donating to rescue organizations, spend my days either making jewelry or in my garden, and am living with autoimmune disorders and mostly "invisible" disabilities. To keep myself busy and still a viable member of society I learned to make jewelry and got into metalwork and beadwork a few years ago. My store is a couple of years old, and I mostly sell online in my Etsy store. I also sell beads and jewelry supplies to help fund my jewelry making habit, which is harder to profit from. My jewelry is very rustic, bohemian, gypsy, and organic nature inspired. I use oxidized metals and wire, and hammer, texture, and wrap things in an organic style and shape. I love bright colors, and tribal inspired charms and findings, and try to work with recycled, upcyled materials as much as possible. A large part of my supplies are salvaged from broken and unwanted donated jewelry, that I buy in big buckets from local thrift shops. I save the jewelry making treasures from the trash, and the thrift stores get some more much needed money for their various non profit organizations.
