5 out of 5 starsSara worked with me to create a custom earring for my very challenging 3rd lobe/cartilage piercing. I could not be more impressed with her willingness to try something a little new for me and with her communication. The earring is the perfect style and fit. It is something that I never could have found from a commercial retailer; even the body jewelry places could not help me. I am ECSTATIC about how this turned out. Thank you Sara!

5 out of 5 starsI absolutely love this spoon! I have eyed it for a while and finally decided to treat myself. I was not disappointed. The quality is awesome and it is so cute. The seller is amazing as well. When there was a hiccup in the delivery, she made adjustments and made sure it arrived on time - and even threw in some extra items as a thank you. I could not be happier. I have bought earrings from this shop before and love them as well. She puts great care into her products and customer service!

When I moved the metal for the first time
My love of metalsmithing began in 2006 when I first forged a piece of sterling wire with a hammer. I was obsessed with learning as much as I could about making jewelry from that point. I read every book I could get my hand on.
In High School I wanted to learn how to make jewelry, but the only option that I could see was trade school training for a bench jeweler. My father wanted us all to have a formal education, so I studied classical singing. (I know another very practical field).
I had wanted to leave an adjunct teaching position to spend more time with my newborn son, and calculated that I just needed to earn a few hundred dollars a month to be able to stay at home with him. So I took a leap of faith and hit the ground running. I sold my jewelry in home shows, churches, and began my etsy shop in 2007.
I joined Etsy Metal and made many great friends in that group. I owe them for all the advice and encouragement they have given to me. I learned how to take pictures with my canon elph, market my stuff, and make things that sell so that I can afford to do the art I love to do.
The next year I was a featured artist on etsy and my sales exploded over the next year. I have been working around the clock to manage my business since 2006. I still love making jewelry. Being in the studio helps me connect my racing mind with my body.

As a self taught metalsmith, I make jewelry that I want to wear everyday. My father, a painter and antique dealer, taught me that I could do anything if worked hard enough. I am formally trained as a classical singer and I teach voice lessons daily.
