Handmade Jewelry with Love

Hi, I'm Shelli Lee, an artist from Wisconsin.

My journey as an artist began in childhood, primarily through painting, which became my first love. However, after graduating from grad school, I found myself disconnected from painting. It wasn't until I undertook an assignment in a therapy session that I rediscovered my love of jewelry making. I often think about my silversmithing class and how my teacher celebrated my pieces, even if they didn't remember me as much. Now, with about two years of professional experience as a jeweler, I cherish the way small pieces of jewelry can spark memories and emotions.

Each piece I create is not just jewelry; it's a medium to spread joy and carry stories. I find immense happiness in crafting these tiny treasures, knowing they can bring delight to others, just as they bring joy to me and my ride or die bestie, Ziggy.
