Owner/Designer: My name is Marlena, and I recently moved to New York state after living in Maine for 6 years, where I crafted and sold jewelry with my friend under the name Jenni-Mystique.I have 3 fantastic kids, two of which are school-aged and my newest little addition who is 7 months old. They're my world! I come from a family of craftsmen and women, and first started puttering around with jewelry when I was a little girl and watched my mom making earrings and key chains. It wasn't until about 3 years ago that I realized that I could make some really cool stuff and make a little bit of money while I'm at it!I just love working with my hands, and my favorite thing to do is to work with natural materials like gemstones, rocks, shells, and wood. I also enjoy making mixed-media pieces and Steampunk.Recently I decided to expand my business to things other than jewelry alone, and I've been having a blast coming up with new ideas for crafts!~~~~Featured Photographers: Photographs on my Photo Tile pieces are used with permission from two fantastic Maine photographers (and my beloved friends), Lynn Audet and Gretchen Gordon Cates.
