I love the organic, imperfect nature of handmade jewelry. Each of my pieces is one of a kind. I love working with sterling silver, semiprecious stones, and vintage findings. In my day job I work at Anthropologie, Inc. but I spend most of my free time making jewelry and trying to develop my business, Villette Jewelry. I attended Moore College of Art and Design for metalsmithing and graduated from Temple University with a degree in English- Creative Writing. If you are interested in any Villette Jewelry products shown or a custom piece, please email VilletteJewelry@gmail.com.
I went to the crafts and fine arts festival in Collingswood, NJ this weekend. There was a wide variety of items, ranging from the commonplace craft staples to some fresh, new ideas I was really excited about. Regardless, no matter what, a craft fair is always inspiring to me, even if I just get a glimpse of what others out there are doing or how people are merchandising their booths and packaging their items. (That's why I love this time of year... it seems like every weekend there is some kind of local neighborhood craft fair!) I walked away from this fair thinking of ways to experiment some more with enamel... so all in all, a successful day!
