As a successful manicurist, Cris decided to combine her eye for color with something more tangible than nail art. After some self-reflection, she decided to tap into her creativity by returning to skills she learned as a child such as sewing and crocheting. She added beading and realized how much she liked working with bicones, crystals, and rondels. As it became more evident that jewelry was a complimentary and profitable element to her nail business, she ventured into wire wrapping, metal work and resin. But her interest in jewelry making hasn’t stopped there. Currently, clay is her best friend.

Because Cris’ clientele range from young adults to seniors, it seems only natural that her jewelry collections symbolize the seasons of a woman: spring (unsalted), summer (spicy), autumn (flavored), and winter (seasoned). And, like a hummingbird moving from bloom to bloom, she gathers inspiration for her collections from a variety of sources. Life, nature, and long scenic drives fuel her imagination. Collections that are fun, flirty, and effortless are the result.
