About me

I began beading and creating jewelry as a creative way to celebrate mine and my wife's wedding anniversary. I bought a few crystals from a bead shop and I had a barn full of hand tools. I knew I could find somthing to work with. I made a couple of bracelets and she couldn't believe that I didnt buy them from some store. It took a little convincing, but she soon realized that I really could make the stuff. We eventually created a business and have been really succesful with creating jewelry to meet a wide variety of needs for clients. Officially we both work in the education field.

Experience and Creativity

Only a year of experience with creating jewelry. Its been alot of fun going to shows and seeing people pick up my jewelry and make comments. Its even better when they give me money for them, haha! I think the funniest comment that I hear at almost every single show is when the ladies see me putting together a custom piece for a customer and they say "Oh my...you help your wife too? That is so nice!" I used to try to explain that my wife actually helps me. I became tired of explaining and just started answering "Yes ma'am." I have always had a creative streak in me. I have worked with design in some fashion or another ever since I graduated from college...from landscapes to flowers to proms and now jewelry.

Hobbies and Interests

jewelry, horticulture, gospel music.
