About
I was making jewelry for family n friends then people started contacting me to order stuff or custom make stuff. So my hobby became a business.
2019 I taught jewelry technique at Virginia Park every Wednesday had 8- 10 students.
Iater that year I was honored by the mayor of Santa monica for bringing the community together n recieved a 500.00 grant.
I find making jewelry is very therapeutic n there's no limit to what one could create.
