SpritelyFinch
I started my Etsy shop, SpritelyFinch Jewelry and Photography, in 2011. The inspiration for the shop's name was a beautiful house finch (photographed on a thistle in a local nature preserve) that reminded me of a lively sprite or fairy.
My shop is a labor of love: I donate 100% of its revenue to two wonderful charities: Animal Rescue Corp (ARC): www.animalrescuecorps.org and Palo Alto Humane (PAH): http://www.paloaltohumane.org. I am very grateful to my customers for making this possible.
I spend some part of most everyday out in nature with my camera, and am very fortunate to live near beautiful bayland marshes and nature preserves. I also make jewelry most days and enjoy photographing my creations with folk art animals as models and interesting rocks and shells as props. I hope that this adds an element of fun and color to my shop.
Customer service is very important to me. I am happy to make length adjustments for bracelets and necklaces, to exchange one type of clasp for another, and to exchange the original ear wires for a different style or metal composition -- usually without charge (unless the change involves considerable expense). If you ever need to have your jewelry repaired, I would be glad to try to repair it at no cost other than asking that you pay for the shipping.
Finally, I enjoy creating custom orders, so don't hesitate to inquire.
Thank you for visiting!
