Making jewelry was something I never expected to be doing. I am a wife, mother, and have a full-time job in the Equine Insurance industry. While in a craft store, I picked up a wire jewelry magazine and was inspired. I love jewelry, so why not try to make my own? Check out my creations below. They make great stocking stuffers, so please contact me if you're interested!


My first project was for a friend who wanted a pair of reasonably priced Equestrian earrings. Working in the Equine industry and the "Horse Capital of the World," I thought it would be quite fitting. I found Antique Silver Equestrian Bit charms and turned them into earrings. Simple yet elegant! I am working on more ideas for Equestrian earrings, so stay tuned.

These UK inspired earrings made with blue and white cat's eye beads were created in honor of the big win today against UNC! Go Cats!!! The wire techniques used for the design of these earrings were simple loops, coils and jump rings.

The next pair of earrings are my favorite to make so far. The wire techniques for this design are coils, simple loops and spirals. The simple loops, coils and spirals are all done by hand. These look great for a casual or dressed up look.
