- About Me:
- I am an art student going to the Art Institute of Pittsburgh Online. I absolutely love it! When I am not doing school work, I am spending time with my family, many animals, church, and making jewelry. I have very little time for much else and can not wait to graduate! Disney here I come!
On Etsy you can find my handmade wristlets, coin purses, and jewelry creations, which I make with designer fabrics and high quality parts. I started sewing when I was wee little and making jewelry 5 years ago, although I started out my jewelry making with hemp. I graduated to using precious metals and absolutely love it! Somewhere along the line I have become a bead and fabric addict and can't help myself! Do not get me into a bead or fabric store....egad!
Where does Sweet Irie come from? Well Irie is my kitty's name; the light of my life she is such a sweetie!! In any event, I started creating and designing jewelry in 2005 shortly before Irie was born. Having a kitten around the house made it very hard for me to make jewelry; back then I generally only used hemp and she absolutely did not want me to work! She loved loved loved playing with the long strings I was using to make knots with and no matter how many times I would cut a piece off for her...she wasn't happy! She wanted what I had in my hands. Then after I was done with the jewelry she would somehow get into the bin I had them in and spread them all over the house; one after the other! hehe ;) I finally realized I would never get anything done because of her need to play so I starting dabbling with more involved techniques...using precious metals for a more 'professional' look. After a while my little business began to grow and I used the name Sweet Irie because she used to 'help' me with my designs. At least now she doesn't jump right in the middle of my work. I am at peace...
Announcment...
