K STREET JEWELRY MISSION
I adore making jewelry. Pretty much everywhere I look, I see the potential for turning something into another thing that can adorn the body. With that in mind, starting a jewelry business was the natural progression for me to have an outlet to free up space in a very crowded single car garage to store more jewelry supplies and finished product.
If I ever leave my house for more than a few hours, I pack a small bag of beads, cord, wire and three faithful tools (1, 2, 3) so if I encounter a stretch of downtime (flat tire, delayed flight, a spell in a doctor’s office waiting room, bedside of a ill friend or family member, waiting for an oil change), I can pull out the little zipped bag at the bottom of my bag and make something. It is soothing, the physical repetition and the immediate existence of a creative space in my mind. The simplicity of finding a space to create gave me the idea that making jewelry is something anyone can do anywhere. And if I find it soothing, so will others. And if I can build a website to sell what I make, so can others, or, I can dedicate space on my website to sell product made by artisans other than myself. It was traveling down the road of this thought process that brought about the true mission of K Street Jewelry - create a simple space in which people, jewelry making supplies and design ideas come together, enabling the spark and realization of creation, and a space to share and sell.
So far, I am working with non-profits focused on the empowerment of ____ men and women, providing the supplies and creative nudging, to make art to wear, give and sell. There is a tab on this webpage…..
