MyFriendandIJewelry

We have been friends for years. We love to get together to gab, laugh, solve the problems of the world, talk about our grandkids, and shop for beads to turn them into awesome jewelry.

Linda started making jewelry first - out of desperation to have something to wear with a dress for her daughter's wedding. She couldn't find any ready-made jewelry that she liked, so having always been an artist she decided to make her own. She visited a local bead shop, found beautiful beads, took a lesson, and ended up with the perfect jewelry for her dress. And....she found her new creative passion.
Later, during a weekend at the Oregon Coast (one of our favorite places!) we played with some beads Linda had brought along. We had a great time, made some cool things, and Debbie discovered a new passion too.

Over time we made lots of jewelry that we gave as gifts, then friends started asking to buy our pieces. It was only natural then, that "My Friend & I Jewelry" came to be.

All of our pieces are designed and handmade by us individually in our home studios. Most of our pieces are one-of-a-kind. We also enjoy the challenge of custom work....like taking your outdated Aunt Ida's necklace and re-working it into an updated piece that you'll want to wear and will always remind you of your sweet auntie. Or, working with you to create a special piece for an important event in your life.

We value beauty, quality, details, and only make things we would be proud to wear ourselves. You can feel confident that your My Friend & I purchase will be a lasting treasure.

Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to get to know us. We hope you'll find something you love and become a part of our My Friend & I family. 💜
