| Me | My Alter Ego |
Hi there! I started making jewelry 5 years ago, and since then, Drops of Sun was born. It has been so exciting to watch my jewelry slowly take flight, and learn a lot along the way.
I love getting to know my customers, especially working together to design custom pieces! It is so neat to hear everyone's story.
I am originally from Wisconsin but just moved up to the French-speaking city of Montreal, Canada. When I'm not making jewelry, I am busy studying for my Master's degree in Speech Therapy. I love design, fashion, jewelry, and cooking. My guilty pleasure is catching up on numerous TV shows while making jewelry.
Please email/facebook if you'd like to say "hello!" (dropsofsun@hotmail.com)
Thanks for stopping by!
Eco-Friendly Philosophy:
Drops of Sun Jewelry is handmade from recycled and eco-friendly papers Recycled Banana Bark paper, Bamboo pulp paper, and recycled magazine paper. I began experimenting with these papers as a way to spread the word about making creative changes in our lives to help reduce, reuse and recycle. I believe that we are not powerless individuals in the destiny of our planet-- we all have the power and the responsibility to protect it! We can do this by making eco-friendly choices in what we eat, what we buy, and how we live. Wearing eco-friendly jewelry is one way to tell people proudly that you love this earth that that you make smart choices make it a more harmonious place to live.
