People ask me how I got started making jewelry. I just don’t remember. I spent the last 30 years designing and constructing adaptive equipment for disabled children. Then, one day, I found myself unemployed, not unlike thousands of other people during the economic crisis of 2008.
Somehow I started making jewelry for friends, in between sending out hundreds of resumes. Friends told friends about my work and friends of friends starting sending me their new clothes so that I could match colors and create jewelry just for them. So, while I continue to seek employment in helping those special kids who need my special talents, I decided to sell my jewelry and my wood creations.
I have always loving working with wood, each piece unique in its markings and colorations, and stones speak to me. Browse my offerings. See if anything talks to you. And remember, even in these tough economic times, you can afford to buy yourself or someone special to you, a piece of art to brighten your day. Simple elegance at affordable prices!
