You’re never fully dressed without a smile. And a well chosen accessory to complete. The inspiration was tucked away in a matchbox Chinatown shop, filled with deconstructed jewelry pieces. And a simple desire to have a new set of stand-out earrings became giddiness: for giving, designing the vision for loved ones, and having distinctive, handmade accessories at my fingertips.

Naturally, such hand-felt skills led to further writing: framed words to for your wall, addresses on envelopes, tabletop place cards and designing: business cards, stationery, invitations. Using mostly wire, metals, old pieces, new stones, chandelier findings, and feathers for jewelry and pen, paper, and a touch of whimsy for writing and design, the pursuit to create a one-of-a-kind statement is nearly limitless.

When design turns statement, your style speaks. Designed to leave a proverbial Post-It in the minds of those around you, goods fills in the blank with made-for-you embellishments.
