My jewelry has to function!
I like constraints: I often come up with new ideas when I see a practical problem that needs to be solved.
For example, the crocheted jewelry I create should not only be beautiful and express something about you, your moods, and your desires, but it also needs to fit seamlessly into your active, busy lifestyle.
To meet this challenge, my first creations focused on jewelry that was light and effortless and never needed to be taken off. I created simple, durable designs that could go from work to the pool to the garden. I change my clothes more than I change my jewelry. I even test my jewelry by running it through the dishwasher and wearing it in the hot tub (ahhhh!). I wear it everywhere, even when camping. The simple designs include a lot of thought and testing and are meant to work in a variety of situations!
I have since developed a variety of styles that I see as solving other “problems” including:
-finding the right look in the right length with designs that are short, long, and in between
-creating hypoallergenic jewelry that has no metal parts
-designing jewelry that moves and changes and is not static
-inventing clasp-less jewelry that has nothing to hide
If you have a “problem” that keeps you from wearing jewelry, let me know, I’d love to help you solve it!
