We spotted Jill Makes through her Instagram account. Her handmade jewellery is so bold and colourful! She has a wonderful Etsy shop which is jam packed with goodies!
“I started focusing on jewelry that I would love to wear. I love the idea of personalized jewelry. Most people enjoy having something that is uniquely theirs. I also have a love for bright and bold colors and that shows in most of my pieces.
Often I begin with a pencil sketch of an idea that has been running through my head. That is how my Helvetica necklaces came about. I illustrate a lot of my jewelry pieces by hand, design it on the computer and I then hand paint them myself. I also hand mold all of my clay components. Most of my jewelry pieces have a handpainted element.”
