About
The initial reason why started creating jewelry was inspired by our love of animals. We volunteer at a local animal rescue. This created the interest to find ways to help raise funds for the rescue. Which a portion of the proceeds will be donated to from featured sales on our website.
Innocently enough, we began taking a few classes and experimenting with different mediums. Our dream was to be able to create products that would appeal to animal lovers.
However, what we soon discovered is….there is a real live addiction associated with beading, metal working and polymer clay!
With each and every new technique we learned…. the addiction kicked in, took root and grew.
We set up a studio and began to spend more and more of our time working on projects and experimenting with various forms in which to create beautiful pieces that we hope you love.
As we learn and grow and perfect our skills we will continue to update and add to this site.
We have plans to add a wide variety of products, so please check back and feel free to drop us a line if you have a special request or would like to share ideas. We are always looking for new ideas or inspiration.
Also, as we expand our vision will continue to grow and we hope to be able to help more rescue groups and shelters in the near future.
