In HER words ::

Cousins Natalie Gerlack and myself Gretchen Black founded the company a year ago. I (Gretchen) am married and have three boys, and Natalie is married with 2 children, a son and a daughter. We have always been passionate about fashion and design and we love all things creative.

Natalie and I have been crafting together since we were allowed to hold a pair of scissors. We enjoy shopping and love high end jewelry pieces, but not the price tag that would accompany them. So we embarked upon the adventure of creating our own jewelry line that would be affordable and fashionable.

We enjoy going antiquing with our moms in search of the perfect vintage piece that we can turn into a fabulous necklace, bracelet, ring, or even earrings. We also look for interesting semi precious stones, beads, and silk ribbon to incorporate into our pieces.
