The Tip is 'City Magazines' I was in the magazine section recently and saw the Indianapolis Monthly. The cover title read "Made In Indiana." I read the article and was amazed that all sorts of things were being made in the state. This is contrary to what most American's believe. Most of us think everything is made overseas. We still make the majority of what we consume and our buying tips we call Little Secrets help you realize that. Being from Indiana, I decided to visit several of the referenced web sites and I am proud to say I have purchased some of the best products ever. All thanks to the "City Monthly Magazine".

Why will she wear this? My belief when it comes to accessorizing with South Paw Studios jewelry is you never need an excuse. Don't save it in your jewelry box, don't pull it out only for date night? wear it now. Don't wait for a special occasion? Because you are you and that is what makes it special enough to wear today and everyday. The History of South Paw Studios: Growing up in a home with both artistic and creative parents, it was a given that it was in my DNA to become an artist. As a small child and through out my teenage years, I dabbled in everything from ceramics, batiking, silk dying, too watercolor, sewing and photography, but it was jewelry design where I found a good niche, although my love for photography is a close second. south paw studios jewelryMy passion for jewelry design started in 1997 when my father, a glass blower and business owner, gave me a book on jewelry making. I started crafting little treasures for my friends and family, and slowly things started to sell. It was then that I knew I was onto something. In 2001 I decided to take a chance and created South Paw Studios?. Thanks to an exceptionally encouraging husband and loving family I was able to quit my day job to focus my attention 100% to collection design. It was a dream come true - and still is. Now I have been in the jewelry business almost 16 years and counting. I am mainly self taught but did study basic metal-smithing through the Toledo Museum of Art. Over the years my business has grown to be represented in fine galleries and boutiques. I am continuously evolving and stay up to date on the latest trends, newest color palette combinations, and finest materials available in the industry. |
