Like many, with the onset of Covid I had to cancel all my scheduled live selling shows. I miss them, as I loved meeting people, sharing stories and feeling connected to women who wear my jewelry. My current process for selling my work is entirely, and sporadically, online.

As an artist I spend a lot of time at my workbench, deeply absorbed in my creative process. I hope someday soon I will resume traveling the world, sourcing the vintage and antique components that are the signature of my work (not to worry, my studio is still overflowing). I am a solo-entrepreneur, meaning I do it all - from creative design and production, sourcing, accounting, website development, photography, shipping, etc.

I find that the business processes use an entirely different part of my brain than the creative work so I decided to sell only in specific periods of time. I call them my Pop-Up Sales, as in, they pop up for a brief period of time. In between, the online store is closed and I devote my energies to being creative and productive in the studio.

So when you click on the SHOP link above, there are only collections of items listed during a pop up sale. I promote these pop up sales via emails to my mailing list and on social media. If you want to be notified, please add your name to my email list (click Sign Up above), and follow me on FaceBook and Instagram (click Social above). In fact, I often post new pieces on IG which are available for sale between pop up sales. So follow along and if you see something posted which peaks your interest, reach out to me. I sell quite a bit this way between online sales.

Stay healthy and happy!
