Creating All Things Pretty for over 20 years!
I can't remember a time in my life where I wasn't creating. From sewing my own doll clothes as a child, painting murals on my walls as a teen and discovering a deep passion for jewelry making fresh out of high school, it's hard to imagine I will ever lose interest in creating!
I discovered the magical word of beads in 2002 and it change the course of my life. I have been blessed with working multiple jobs in the retail bead industry where I was able to travel and collect beautiful treasures for creating. It gave me wonderful insight on which supplies are top quality as well as knowledge on lead-safety and which bead suppliers pay attention.
In 2022 I opened a retail store in that same location as the bead store I "grew up in" but closed it after just one year because I didn't want to miss out on any of my son's remaining childhood. Plus, it drastically cut my creating time and energy.
I pride myself in customer service and aim to please with quality made jewelry. I put love and good energy into all that I create and never do so on days I feel off. I believe when you make something with love and best intentions that it will be felt through the art. For me, art comes from a place of love and that is the feeling I want you to receive.
Although beads hold a generous part of my artistic heart, I love to sew, paint, draw, paper craft, play with clay, resins and anything else I see as opportunity to create!
You can find me out vending festivals, farmer's markets, craft and art shows and everything in between. I do over 100 of events annually and I love my local community. Come say hi sometime!
