Announcement
I have lived in Michigan all my life and have been making jewelry for over 9 yrs. I am a Metal-smith and also Wire Wrap. I do not use purchased settings and then glue the stones in. I hand fabricate every setting I sell and do the majority of the lapidary work myself so you can be guaranteed that each piece of jewelry I have in my shop has been handled by only myself and is a one-of-a kind piece that was created with much care and experience.
If you would like to see what I do and how I do it along with photos, please visit our "about" page.

Here at Simply Wired we specialize in fine handcrafted jewelry from the items we have collected from the shores of the Great Lakes of MI. We also offer unique designs of bead and wire jewelry from Bohemian style to more modern and contemporary style.
The difference between what I offer in my shop in comparison to other shops is that 95% of the stones I use I have fashioned myself. I do all my own lapidary work rather then just purchasing cabochons to wire wrap. It takes a great amount of time and patience to work my own stones especially with the Agates, since their hardness is rated so high and much harder to shape and polish. You can be guaranteed that a great amount of time and care has gone into each stone and the metal smith design or the wire wrap work. So please keep that in mind when comparing prices of other Artisans work you may see on Etsy.
I also offer making "made to order" items if you have a special stone that you would like shaped, polished and placed into a setting. Just send me a message to my store and let me know what you have in mind. : ) We have something for every budget and age, so feel free to browse our store and find something for yourself or for that special loved one in your life!
All of our jewelry is also sent out wrapped in either tissue paper or in a organza bag and placed in a very pretty decorative pillow box all ready for gift giving to make it special!.....

5 out of 5 starsAs a child, I spent many happy hours along the Lake Michigan shore searching for Petoskey stones. This necklace not only brings back those memories, but is also beautifully designed and crafted. The little pearl was the perfect accent. Thank you!

5 out of 5 starsI am in awe of the gift this incredible artist has. I inquired about beads and look what she created specifically for me! They are gorgeous! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I have posted a picture of ways I wear the two beads! I also wear them with a black or brown cord.
