My mother, Melissa, has been making jewelry for over 20 years. She ran a little jewelry shop from our front porch when I was little, and I remember coming home from kindergarten and finding our porch just crowded with women wanting to buy her jewelry. Unfortunately, the neighbors complained about all the traffic, and she had to close. She did local craft shows and festivals for quite a few years after, with much success.
The busy life of a single mom kept her away from jewelry for a long time, but when I was a teenager, she started making it again as a hobby, and got me interested. Now that I have a family of my own (husband and two wonderful little boys!), we've found this is a great reason for us to spend more time together, and so we've started a business. We hope you like what we've created!
