I started working with stained glass and photography while in college. And over the 40+ years in corporate finance, I always made time for my creative spirit to balance out the stress and my busy schedule. During those years I worked through many more art mediums: painting, ceramics, sewing, fiber crafts, jewelry and anything new I could find a class in.
Over time I started focusing mainly on Fused Glass, which gave me a broad range of creative expression. During a trip to Sante Fe with my sisters, I discovered polymer clay jewelry and metalsmithing. This led to the natural marriage of fused glass, wire wrapping and metalsmithing for me.
After retiring in 2024, I realized I wanted to stay busy doing something I truly enjoyed while maybe even earning enough to support my art habit. When my sister also retired in 2025, we decided to start a jewelry business together. We share similar tastes and interests and support each other in managing the challenges of a new business and encouraging “all things creativity”.
Thank you for visiting and supporting our small sister-run business and for choosing homemade!!

My love for creating began at an early age, exploring a variety of artistic mediums including yarn, fabric, ceramics, and clay.
After a memorable trip to Santa Fe with my sisters, I discovered my passion for polymer clay — a versatile medium that allows endless possibilities for texture, color, and design.
Based in Hockley, Texas, I create handcrafted jewelry and gifts using polymer clay, wire wrapping, and mixed-media techniques. My work is inspired by Southwest landscapes, boho style, and natural textures.
I was also gifted a meaningful collection of beads and findings from a fellow artist, inspiring a special beaded jewelry collection that celebrates color, movement, and individuality.
Each piece is thoughtfully handcrafted, honoring the beauty of handmade artistry.
One Website • Two Artists • Seamless Shopping
While we each create our own collections, all of our jewelry and gifts are available together here on one website. This allows you to explore both artists’ work and enjoy a seamless, easy shopping experience in one place.
