Making jewelry has been a hobby for me for many years. I enjoy the creativity of it and the chance to bring my passion to life in a real, tangible accessory that can be enjoyed for years to come. Sharing that has become a privilege and a joy! Originally from Virginia, I found a love of history and all the relics and accessories of times past. I lived there for many years before moving with my husb
and and children to Montana in search of better life for our children. Montana hasn't disappointed. Here I find inspiration that is different than the inspiration I got in Virginia. The combination of the two places has influenced me and made me a better artisan crafter than ever before. At least, I like to think so! Finding beautiful gemstones, some of them from right here in Montana, is as much fun for me as putting them altogether into a work of art -- a finished piece of jewelry. As my health has brought me to a place where I can no longer teach school, I crossed over the "intersection" of life to work on something I can do and love just as much as teaching! I hope that you will look at my collection and be able to see something you'd like to have or to give as a gift. If, however, you don't find what you are looking for, please ask. I would be honored to make a piece of jewelry that you would treasure. My workshop is my hideaway, my special place where the creative juices can flow and I feel that spending time making jewelry there is helping me heal! So thank you for your part in that process!
