My journey and how it all started...
This journey all started in September 2015, when I had a Quartz crystal I wanted to wear as a necklace… I got some wire and some cheap pliers and had a go at wire wrapping. My first attempt was horrible and I felt defeated by my own imagination. So, right then and there I gave up wire wrapping just as quickly as I had started it. Luckily, I continued to be drawn towards it so I tried again and got better each day with new ideas and techniques- and that is when Rock Candy Pendants was born. I have fallen in love with the entire process- from traveling on my free time through California and Nevada and hand picking my own crystals, stones and rocks, to using my background in photography to capture the magic behind each piece of jewelry. When I started being more creative with my style of wire wrapping, I knew I was right where I was meant to be and everything started making sense again. New thoughts and ideas started streaming into my head and I got busy, really busy, designing each piece with new eyes. My imagination for new pieces and using my photography skills has brought me to a magical place in my life that I thought I had lost and would never see again. This is just the beginning of my new journey and I am beyond happy with where my path is taking me. I am here to share my passion with each of you, in hopes that these gemstones can inspire your life as much as they have inspired me and my own personal journey.
