Meet the Maker

Most days you can find me in my home studio AKA "my happy place"  I was born with a passion to create.  I have been designing and creating jewelry for almost 30 years.  I love vendor shows as well as selling online.  I attended Jewelry Fabrication classes at the Toledo Museum of Art for several years which started me on my metalsmithing journey. A couple of years ago I discovered metal clay and immediately fell in love with this unique and versatile medium.  Quite frankly, I am obsessed! I often create pieces using metalsmithing techniques in my metal clay pieces.

As an artisan jewelry maker, my focus is on creating high-quality pieces that reflect my attention to detail and craftsmanship. I carefully choose my materials and take the time to creatively design and execute each piece, focusing on the finishing touches, that makes a piece of jewelry stand out. I truly love creating pieces that my customers will love.

How it’s Made

I made the leafs with sterling silver metal clay. I created the top bead caps with sterling clay and the bottom bead caps with sterling sheet. I completed the leaves with a eyelet rivet for a nice finished look. The ear wires are sterling silver. Perfect gift for someone who loves a handmade artisan piece of jewelry.

About Metal Clay:

I made these earrings with Metal Clay.  Metal clay is a type of clay that is made from metal particles mixed with a binder. It can be molded and shaped like regular clay, but when it is fired in a kiln, the binder burns away and the metal particles fuse together creating a piece of pure metal jewelry, in this case, a pure sterling leaves for the earrings.

The basic techniques I use with metal clay involve three different states:

Soft Clay techniques:  I use different methods of shaping the soft clay which includes cutting, texturing, molding, and embellishments.

Dry Clay techniques: Also called the greenware stage. This is where I start the pre-finishing process which includes sanding, carving, and creating openings for rivets and eyelets.

Finishing techniques:  After the piece has been fired and cooled the finishing process begins.  This could include sanding, polishing, burnishing, and sometimes adding patina to certain pieces.
