Hello, and thanks so much for visiting Twisted by Dani! My name is Dani Montoya and I am the owner, artist, designer, and maker of all the jewelry you see on this page.

All my life I have been working with my hands to create beautiful things.

For the last 12 years I have devoted my life to pottery (www.yellowcottagestudios.com). In my spare time I collected gemstones and learned to wire weave them into beautiful pendants.

Much as I love crystals and all the mystical allure around them, I wanted to try something different. One day I attended a class on Copper Enameling and found a new passion!

Through trial and error, I developed a way to combine my love of wire weaving with my newfound passion for Torch Fired Copper enameling, and Twisted by Dani was born.

With the use of a hot torch and finely ground glass powder (enamel powder) I can make my own focal pieces using all the colors of the rainbow (and more).
