August 2025 Update

August 2025 Update

Hello!!

I hope you are doing well and keeping cool during this crazy summer heat. An update for everyone that I am starting school again on August 18th for my Fall semester and continuing to take 15-16 credit hours this semester. It is officially my senior year and I have 1 more semester after this. I will be graduating Spring of 2026 and could not be more excited! That being said it will be another incredibly busy year where my education may take priority over my jewelry business again. I will always continue to update those who have pending works or customs as I go through my semester. My school is also in Santa Fe, NM so it requires me to drive back and forth from Albuquerque which also soaks up some of my time. 

I also want to update that unfortunately going forward all customs and pre-claims of any jewelry or future jewelry works will now require either a non-refundable deposit depending on the work and cost value or may require full payment upfront. It has been a repeating issue recently of customers being unable to pay for their custom work even though I finish the work and it is beginning to affect not only my self in supporting my bills and education but it also affects those who already have pending orders and some of the money in-return funds the materials to continue the jewelry making cycle. So you are not only hurting me as an artist but also hurting the others who continue to support me and create unnecessary delays. I really appreciate those who reached out for encouragement and gave me suggestions. I really did not want to have to put those restrictions on my jewelry but it seems to be the best move for myself and my business going forward. Thank-you for the understanding!

On the happier note, I have started working on everyone's pumpkin orders and shooting to have them complete by Aug 18th before my school begins. I have also begun deciding the Halloween and spooky jewelry for this year and working on more earrings on the side. I am trying my best to have everything done by the end of August and early September so everyone can have their jewelry before October! Please do keep an eye on my Instagram stories and posts since they will likely have all the sneak peeks and insight into what is coming up next. 

Now that it is my senior year I am beginning to focus on my big exhibition so there will be a large focus back on jewelry and creating in this last year. I am really excited to share what I have in stored and all the ideas that I have been sitting on for this moment! 

Thank-you for all your unwavering love and support ♥ You guys are what keep me going and what make creating so much fun!
