ghostlovejewelry

I began cultivating my crafting skills at a very young age, taking various painting, drawing and ceramics classes to amuse myself. I was always making something...or breaking something to create something new.

In my teens I began designing jewelry and clothing. This was mostly for fun or to give as gifts to friends, but it was still something that gave me a great sense of accomplishment. People would often stop me and ask, "Where did you buy that?" and I would proudly respond, "I made it!"

During my first attempt at college, I majored in graphic design and took several studio courses where my fine art skills flourished. I always found my greatest muse in the darker side of art and composition. I continue to find imagery that is considered creepy or macabre to be beautiful and romantic somehow.

Ghostlove Jewelry was officially established in April of 2008. My vision for the company was to use my fine art skills and design aesthetic to create affordable wares for the modern Gothic wardrobe, infusing elements of Aristocratic Lolita, Steampunk, Couture Noir and Victoriana, all with artful taste and stunning presentation.

Many of my designs are heavily inspired by Victorian memento mori / mourning jewelry, world history, and the occult. Every piece you see in this shop is one of my unique designs and is lovingly assembled by my own two hands.
