Indigo Silver Studio
I learned basic jewelry making and metalworking skills back in High School. Working plain basic metals into wearable pieces of art was extremely satisfying. I fell in love with it.
Then I raised my family. I am the mother of four lovely daughters. Life gets busy guiding children into beautiful young ladies. :) But times flies, (faster than we think) and when my last two girls hit high school and I had a little more time again, I started making jewelry part time, just for fun. Now I have a full time studio and am loving it.
My studio is located in my home, on our small 40 acre farm. We are a good 1/2-hr out of town, so not having to leave home to commute into town every day is wonderful. My morning commute consists of coffee (ummmm coffee), taking Grace (my Golden Retriever) and Mason (my Great Pyrenees) outside, and then heading to the studio.
All my jewelry is handmade by me. I love real, natural stones and am picky about where and who I trust buying my stock from. I do weed out the occasional stone that is not up to pare before I place anything low quality in my jewelry. Only occasionally do I include a lab created stone in my line, but I will always note that in the listing.
I use all solid quality metals. Nothing I make is silver or gold filled. My skinny stacking rings are generally not stamped as they are smaller than my stamp.
Quality is very important to me, but so is affordability, please know I do my very best to balance the budget in that department. I sell well below mall jewelry store prices, but I must maintain a workable studio with tools, supplies and equipment.
Customer service and happiness is very important to me. And I am pretty easy to get along with. Please feel free to convo me with any questions or concerns. You will not fight to be treated like you should be treated.....like a valued customer. :) Whew!!
I thoroughly enjoy my work. As a long time rock hound, artist, crafter I can't think of a better way to spend my days than to create.
Ok...maybe only one better way....I will drop everything when I get a chance to spend time with one of my grand-daughters. :D
We also have a big garden, and chickens, horses, dogs and a herd of farm cats. We grow a lot of our own vegi's, and herbs for culinary and medicinal use. So hubby spends time haying and tilling. And I spend a lot of time weeding, canning, freezing and did I say weeding? ;)
I am truly blessed. And I thank all my customers here on Etsy for their patronage. Please know that every purchase in my shop is made with love, and that each piece I make and send out into the world brings many years of enjoyment to it's purchaser is my goal.
(I am still working on my Shop Page, so check back soon. I am planning on adding studio pictures and maybe some work in progress pics.)
Thank You! :)
