I’m Jackie, owner/creator of Lace Brick Design.

And here are my LOVES (in a somewhat particular order):

Burgers, the rain, my friends & their tiny humans, crafting, writing, yoga, time in the mountains and solo travel adventures.

Oh, and I love my horse, Woo Hoo (yes, after much indecisiveness, that is what he shall be forever named).

I do my best creating barefoot and I learned a long time ago that the creative juices will not flow unless my lips are adorned with some form of lip balm!!

I trust strongly in three core values:

{1} Love your friends and family hard
{2} Design a life that supports your passions
{3} Live in a way that makes the world a softer+prettier place to be and always be authentic

I am unsure whether creativity is an innate gift or if an ability to aesthetically design can be taught. I do know, however, that I have always craved creating. Even as a young girl, I was a maker. I would design jewelry boxes out of egg cartons for my mom, wear belts as headbands, and countlessly rearrange the furniture in my bedroom (…the paint on the walls fell victim too).

Design and adventure have consistently been the pulse of my being and, so, I guess it was only natural that LBD birthed out of a solo, soul-searching trip to Salt Spring Island, BC during the Spring of 2013. Walking past a bead store near Kits Beach, Vancouver, I was drawn inside. Knowing that I would be spending hours on a beach, kicking up sand and counting waves, I decided that I would dabble in the art of earring design (why not, right?). I purchased all of the required supplies from the little bead store and voila, a week later I had handmade earrings coming out the wazoo! Adding these to the already accumulating pile of pretty little DIY creations in a corner of my home, I knew my next step: Lace Brick Design.

What began as jewelry design has grown to become so much more to me: an outlet for all forms of creative expression, new friendships, feminine empowerment, constant learning, expansion of an entrepreneurial spirit, and more. I will be making pretty things ’til I am a sassy ol’ grey-haired lady!

Thank you for visiting. Pleasure to meet you!


All good things,

Jackie
