Get to Know

Mina and Simbelmynė are stay at home moms, and even when life gets crazy or tough, we're still always making things.

Mina- I bead because the stones call to me, the same way words do. I want to say something beautiful with the combinations.

Simbelmynė- I'm crazy enough to have taken my family to Australia for six months. Packing as many stones, bits of wire and tools into my bags as I can carry. I'm sort of rebuilding my life one idea at a time to make it closer to the ideal I have in my head. A life of exploration, flexibility and creativity.

When i started using gemstones, I knew I'd found my artistic direction. Making them into jewelry provides wearable art and a means to harness the spiritual effects of the stones every day and everywhere you go.
