We are Rose of Sharon Jewelry - eight wonderful outrageous women all from the same extended family who love to create! Our ages range from 27 to 76 and our artistic talents are as equally broad.

We love wire wrapping, bead stringing, bead weaving, soldering, polymer and metal art clay and collecting vintage beads. Beyond jewelry making, we express ourselves through gardening, quilting, sewing, crocheting, digital scrapbooking, soapmaking, cooking, rubber stamping, photography and our interest in crafts never seems to stop!

Jennie (Granny) just turned 96 and loves making beaded watches and incorporating vintage beads that she has collected since the 30s. Betty shares her faith by creating lovely necklaces with crosses. Sharon (the Sharon of "Rose of Sharon") loves charms and altered art so she combines the two into funky bracelets. Sandra (a former antique dealer) creates jewelry with an elegant, vintage feel. Sarah and Olivia like to explore the wild side of handcrafted jewelry - creating trendy pieces filled with fun.

Our primary jewelry line features one-of-a-kind artisan designs using precious metals, gemstones, freshwater pearls, semi-precious beads and Swarovski crystals. You'll find Rose of Sharon Jewelry Artisan necklaces, earrings, necklace sets, bracelets and more at http://www.roseofsharonjewelry.com.
