I am a stay at home Mom or as I like to put it a Domestic Engineer. I have 4 beautiful children, and now 2 amazing grandchildren that keep me pretty busy. In my spare time I love to make jewelry. It is fun and relaxing and I love to see what I can put together and create.
It all started in 2006 when we were packing and getting ready to move in to our new house when I discovered amongst my husbands belongings (it was a box he brought with him when we were married and I had never gone through it) a brown bag of beads, wire, and jewelry tools. I asked my husband what it was for and he said he had purchased that stuff a long long time ago thinking he would one day make his own rosary. I have always been pretty crafty and can accomplish pretty much anything I set my mind to, so I thought to myself I can not let these beautiful beads and tools go to waste. I kept them out and put them with my stuff so that I could get to them easily.

We went to stay with some friends while our house was being finished and I was very bored so I thought this is the perfect time to check out these tools and see what I can do.
I decided to make a rosary for my husband with the beads and supplies he had purchased eons ago. At first it was difficult and my loops looked horrible, but I kept on practicing thank goodness he had purchased a lot of wire =)
Eventually my loops started looking better and I decided they were good enough to make my husband his rosary. I completed it and surprised him with it. He was so surprised and just loved it =) But you know he is my husband and he has to say nice things so I didn't think much of it. I did know that I really enjoyed making it and that I wanted to make another one so I did.
Family members saw his rosary and they wanted me to make them one, then people started offering to pay me to make them one and that was it! I thought this is a great way to make some money doing something that I absolutely LOVE.
I started getting creative and making other stuff too. I just could not stop and still haven't to this day.
I found etsy and thought this is the perfect place for me to sell my creations. I also do some seasonal craft fairs in my area.
I feel so incredibly blessed to be given such a wonderful talent and plan to share it as long as God will allow me too.
