I began designing and making jewelry when I owned an upscale ladies boutique. I wanted "special" items to go with the fashions I had in my boutique. I was unable to find just the right item so I began to make them myself. I have always been creative and this is a perfect way for me to express myself. After 15 years of owning my boutique I was quite burned out and ready for a change. After taking a break, I realized how much I missed making and designing jewelry. I read about Shopify and after quite some time of pondering and reading, here I am. I love what I do.
