Jennifer was inspired to create jewelry when her great aunt Ellen passed away leaving Jennifer a large collection of necklaces, bracelets, rings, and brooches from her 88 years of life. Ellen wore these jewels with joy during her 40 year marriage to her husband when they would go out dancing in Seattle. Jennifer decided to let these gems and Ellen's memory live on by "up-cycling" the components of Ellen's jewelry into new unique pieces.
Jennifer loves to mix colors and textures, using beads, ribbon, chain and fabric in many of her creations. Her most popular piece is the Bauble Necklace which she has custom designed for many people. "I aspire to make unique, wearable jewelry that is affordable," Jennifer says.
The mother of two young girls, Jennifer is passionate about supporting efforts to empower women and girls in her community. "I love hosting parties, so The Soiree Project is a great way for me to engage others in fundraising efforts while sharing my craft and a bottle of wine."
