Creating trendy Leather + Wood Earrings in my little studio downstairs!
Thank you for coming by my store. It still feels a little surreal that others take interest in my little creations. I began selling earrings on a FB group in December and was amazed at the popularity and enthusiasm! Friends encouraged me to open this shop and I have been blessed by the response.
Yet, the truth is, I simply love to design and create. Art has always been a release from the busyness of life for me. There are few things better than putting the kids to bed (I have two beautiful children--I can say that because they are adopted, so it has nothing to do with me!), making a cup of hot tea, and entering my little studio in our basement to see what creations emerge after a day of "orchestrated chaos."
In fact, I have always loved creating and designing. My husband (of twenty years) and I would travel to little trade shows in the early years of our marriage to sell "handmade stationary." Yes, he truly loves me! Though we barely covered the cost of gas with our travels, the joy of creating something from nothing fed my soul. Following my foray into the stationary world, I began a digital design and photography company. This artistic realm occupied me for years as there was a delight and privilege that comes with being invited into the lives of others to capture their special moments. Now, I find myself dreaming about leather, drawing new designs, and longing for the quiet of evening in my little downstairs studio. It isn't anything fancy (I sit by our furnace!), but it is my tiny place of retreat and rest (don't tell my kids!).
Thank you for taking an interest in my creations! Fashioning superior leather items from genuine quality leather along with a personal handmade touch guides the creation of each piece. Each item in my shop is handmade and created solely by me. My aim is to give you as much joy in these leather products as I received from making them. This is enough (and already too much!) about me. I am off to my little studio...
