LoralynDesigns

Customizable industrial jewelry and gifts

How did you chose your shop name?

“Loralyn is a combination of my first and middle names Laura and Lynn. I always loved the two names combined, I just changed the spelling a bit.”

How did you decide to start your business?

“Earlier this year, I was out of work due to a back strain and frankly, I had a lot of time on my hands. I used the time to read, to research, and to reflect. It turned out to be both physically and mentally therapeutic. During this time, Loralyn Designs was born.

My Goal: Design unique jewelry and gifts incorporating metal and color .
The Challenge: How to put my personal mark on items 

I was down at my workbench one day and it hit me; Washers, nuts, stainless steel, oh that makes sense! The next challenge was the color. After a lot of research I discovered a modeling material called friendly plastic. It is easy to use, non-toxic and enabled me make my own colors."

What is your favorite piece from your shop?

“I can't say I have a favorite item, I love them all!”

Can you give us some background on your shop?

“A little background on myself:
My real passion is using my hands to create and design. I am thankful to have had a mom that encouraged crafting and creativity from an early age. She taught me the beauty of handmade items from sewing to painting and drawing, gift wrapping, jewelry making, and home decorations. At age 8, I was selling my jewelry door to door (OK, I was selling my fashion plate color drawings too). At 13 my mom invited me to join her in selling my 3D plastic canvas Christmas ornaments which did pretty well. I still have a few I put on my tree every year.
I branched out to woodworking and home improvement projects in my 20s. Now in my late 30s, I have discovered a new passion with metal crafts.”

So, my dear readers? What do you think?

Pretty awesome industrial chic jewelry isn’t it?

Yeah, that is right! Theresa, the amazing girl behind SuperLoveCashmere (no pun intended), well, she sent me a pair of the panties to try out.

Soft and warm and just downright cozy. You will never, ever wear anything more comfortable! Plus! they are super cute, I mean, just look at the pictures! 

The week that my panties came, the furnace was out at work because of a gas leak and we could not use the space heaters because we were having electrical issues too. I wore these babies to work and never felt the cold! How amazing is that?!

AnchorsAwayJewelry

Amanda Leigh is an awesome girl that was inspired to create jewelry as a way to bland art and style!

With inspiration from alternative fashion, Amanda’s shop has a great selection of pin up, rockabilly, kawaii, and nautical items!

Amanda is a really cool girl and I think you would like to read about her and see her picture on Etsy.

How did you get interested in alternative fashions?

 

"I have always had a strong interest in many alternative styles. I really connect with the attitude and classic beauty of certain styles that are typically portrayed as pin up style. I am most drawn to the nautical style because to me it symbolizes strength and adventure. I chose to draw on this nautical theme with my store name Anchors Away since I always aspire for my jewelry to be adventurous! My favorite fashion trends are patterns, I love all patterns from polka dot, animal print, floral, to argyle!"

BabyGazelle

When I was first researching this shop, I read the description as “Charming handcrafter gifts and awesomeness!” I mistook “accessories” (which is what it really says) for “awesomeness” and I think you will see why!

“As a lifelong artist and crafter, I've always enjoyed experimenting with new techniques and media, and making beautiful things for the people I love”

“ I strive to create jewelry, accessories, and decor that are unique and thoughtfully designed.”

“I sincerely hope that a piece I create will brighten up your outfit, your home, or your day!”

Don’t you just love the shop! It is so bright and cheerful! Makes my day just browsing through her shop!

Nothing makes Noora happier than her family, although creating pretty things comes close!

“I've always enjoyed experimenting with new techniques and media, and making things for the people I love.”

Noora makes things when she has a break from her day job of being a mom and a wife. She stays busy with her three little kids and her husband.

“My family has made me see even more beauty in the world around us and they are the biggest inspiration and motivation for everything I do."
