Hello, I am very pleased that you stopped at my shop. My name is Audrey and this is my third year with Etsy. My professional background is music and journalism. But when you live in New York it is impossible not to fall in love with fashion .
From my teenage years I was interested in fashion design. As I can remember I was never happy with any kind of clothes or jewelry piece I bought and was always looking for the ways to improve them and lift them to perfection.
Luckily, moving to New York from Europe allowed me to fulfill almost all my fashion dreams. When you live in the city which names itself World's Fashion Capital, everything you need is just on the hand reach. If you need even a smallest thing for your jewelry project – just go to the New York city Fashion district and it`s there. When you feel worn - out and starve for new ideas - put your shoes on, delve into Soho atmosphere and in a few hours you will have even more ideas than you need.
When I understood that I want my hobby to become more professional, I opened this jewelry shop. In the beginning I worked alone, but very soon my husband joined me, because one way or another he already was in this business as I was asking him for the help almost every day.
We are extremely fortunate that just in a two years we served so many customers and grew up to a well grounded family business. That tells us that we are on the right track and that customers love our products. And hopefully we`ll serve them much more for years to come.
But was this journey easy? No, I couldn't say that. Happy – for sure! But as a woman I have to admit that the hardest part wasn`t making jewelry or serving customers. The hardest part was to „make“ a delicate and gentle Jeweler from my macho Engineer husband (lol).
Our jewelry and fashion journey isn`t finished yet. We are just in the first innings of the long game.
Thank you for taking time to read our story.
With best wishes,
Audrey, "Jewelry Blues"
