About Me

 

Welcome! I’m Ann, an artisan jewelry maker and owner of a cozy bead and jewelry studio in Louisville, Kentucky. Over 20 years ago, I took a jewelry-making class on a whim—mostly to meet new people after moving to Louisville for an engineering job—and I’ve been hooked ever since. I started out focusing on colorful enameled jewelry, and over time my work has grown to include silver and other metal jewelry and objects that blend art, craft, and a bit of engineering curiosity.

Each piece I create is a mix of vibrant color, metalwork, and thoughtful design, inspired by everyday life and this beautiful city. I love making jewelry and objects that not only adorn, but also tell a story and feel good to wear or live with.

In addition to my original designs and curated handcrafted pieces, I now offer a growing selection of beads, stringing materials, tools, and jewelry-making supplies so you can create your own work, too. I also teach workshops and classes—from beginner-friendly make-and-takes to more in-depth techniques—giving you a welcoming space to learn, experiment, and connect with other makers.

Thank you for visiting my site and supporting independent artists. Whether you’re here to find a finished piece you love or the perfect supplies for your next project, I hope you discover something that truly speaks to you.
