My Story

Jun 23, 2022

When I first began my journey in the tumbler making business, It was pretty new and not many people were doing it. Then Covid hit. Everyone was scared and worried and the tumbler making business became saturated with so many wonderful artists that everyone already had a cup. Finding new customers was difficult.

Now it is still difficult so, I have added to my array of art and began making polymer clay jewelry, Although there are lots of people who make polymer clay jewelry, the designs are limitless and it's always fun to find unique and beautiful jewelry. Most polymer clay jewelry is in the style of earrings and pendants.

I love to watch videos on YouTube of my favorite artists and learn new ways to make art, which is where I came across a video of wire wrapping, Intrigued I bought some wire and tried, and tried, and then made more and now it has become an addiction of sorts. The creations that can be made are endless and everything is so uniquely wrapped and intricately designed.

I have found so many passions with my art. I am very fortunate to be able to spend my days working from home making my random art. Friends and family love my work and are always asking why I don't open a shop, well thats an easy one, it cost to much. So I have started my online website and have continued to grow my collection, but again, trying to get noticed and get my work out into the world is a challenge.

This is why I decided to start this page. Sometimes people want to support an artist but not necessarily purchase anything for whatever reason. This is an opportunity for my to get support of my art and continue to create.
