I am a Christian wife, mother, daughter, friend, and business owner.
Art has always been a part of me, an extension of my self….from
making cards and gifts as a child to performing ballet to pursuing a degree in
graphic design to decorating my family’s home.
Beauty inspires me and connects me to something larger than myself. I am most often inspired by the beauty found
in natural objects and strive to enhance that innate beauty with my designs.
When I look at beads and gemstones, I'm as excited as a kid
in a candy store. And when I go to
sleep, it's not visions of sugarplums I see, but adornments of all shapes,
sizes, and colors. It's often in that half-dream state that my designing mind
comes alive.
A degree in Graphic Design coupled with the love and support
of family and friends already familiar with my jewelry designs brought Behind
the Moon Beadworks into reality in 2010.
I strive to create jewelry that showcases the beauty of natural elements
and expresses the many facets of the feminine spirit. My designs can be found online at www.btmbeadworks.etsy.com as well
as at local vendor shows. I preview my
newest designs here on my blog. You can also connect with me via facebook,
twitter, instagram, and pinterest.
About my work
Jewelry should inspire confidence and joy allowing women to
tackle the world with a sense of invigoration and satisfaction. It should be complimentary to your spirit. Behind the Moon designs are uncomplicated yet
offer a sensitive approach to composition and arrangement. I use a variety of natural materials
including gemstones, glass, wood, and metal to create my distinguished
treasures.
Thank you so much for joining me.
Your support means more to me than I can ever express.
