Night's Requiem was started in March of 2008. I was in college at the time and had just discovered this world of handmade. I had always loved to make my own jewelry and just couldn't believe there was an entire online community of people that did the same.

I wanted my shop to be a reflection of who I am and I needed a name that showed that. I settled on Night's Requiem simply because it was a name I had always gone by online, especially in the gamer community, and I've stuck with it ever since!

Everything here at Night's Requiem is made with my own two hands. I'm constantly browsing jewelry supply stores both online and off for inspiration. Sometimes this gets me into trouble as when I see something that's begging to be made into a piece for NR, I just can't help myself from buying it. I often get teased that I could open a supply store in my own studio with my hoard!

A big part of my designs is that I try to keep them as affordable as possible. I know firsthand that money can be tight these days (oh boy, do I know!). Everyone deserves to be able to afford a uniquely handmade piece of jewelry that really speaks to them, and I want to be the one to give them that option.

Another awesome thing about Night's Requiem is that, like myself, it doesn't cater to a specific style. I love elements of everything from hardcore rocker fashion, to funky kandi raver, to the nerdiest of gamer kitsch. My range of jewelry definitely reflects this! I'm sure everyone can find a little piece of Night's Requiem to make their own :)
