Creating jewelry has been a love of mine for decades. While in college as a photography major I took an elective course in jewelry and metalsmithing. I have been forever intrigued by metals and jewelry design.
I started Contents Jewelry around 1990. For many years I successfully consigned my work in my aunt's Wisconsin business. I discovered Etsy in 2013 and thought it would be a great venue for me to sell my jewelry. I also participate in many Wisconsin Art and Craft fairs. I enjoy meeting face-to-face with my customers.
I love working with many materials such as sheet metal, wire, artisan beads, glass, found objects, silk, leather and chain. I love processes like cutting, annealing, molding and enameling metals. I'm fascinated with texturing metal too. Transforming metal into little art pieces to wear is something I love!
Sometimes I have a vision of something I want to create and other times a piece evolves as I work on it. My inspiration is driven by color and nature. When I create I forget almost everything outside of the process and lose myself in it.
Thank you for your interest in my work!
