I love my sea glass earrings that I purchased. When I wear them, they are light, not heavy and uncomfortable. They are very earthy, elegant and unique. I love them!

A Journey Rooted in Love and Happiness

โ€ข My love for jewelry started about 30 years ago.

โ€ข It all began with a wire wrapping class with my mother โ€“ a cherished memory filled with joy and laughter.

โ€ข I strive to infuse that same love and happiness into every piece I create.

Inspired by the Oceansโ€™s Majesty

โ€ข The oceanโ€™s power and beauty have always captivated me.

โ€ข Scuba diving introduced me to the wonders of sea glass.

โ€ข Roaming the shorelines, collecting sea glass, and transforming it into unique jewelry is my passion.

A Blend of Culture and Technique

โ€ข I love to travel and immerse myself in new cultures.

โ€ข These experiences influence and enrich my designs.

โ€ข Iโ€™ve studied various forms of jewelry making, including:

โ€ข Metal clay

โ€ข Beading

โ€ข Silversmithing

โ€ขA Commitment to Learning and Techniques

*I continually educate myself on new techniques and styles.

โ€ข Staying updated ensures that each piece I create is fresh, unique, and of the highest quality.

Thank you for being a part of my journey. Every piece of jewelry I design is a labor of love, inspired by the beauty of the ocean and the joy of creation. I hope my work brings as much happiness to you as it brings to me.

Warm regards,

Tracy
