The Copper Mitten Handmade enamel and metal (copper, silver, brass) jewelry. I'm one of those parents who put their life on hold while raising their children.

I always felt I put my creativeness on hold as well! Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't change a thing about raising my twin daughters. Although I love all forms of art - I took only one metal working class and I was hooked. I have been teaching myself ever since. Maybe it's the pounding of metal and forming objects and jewelry with my hands. Whatever it is - I absolutely love it! I started out in the living room, off in a corner, trying to be out of the way. Once pictures started falling off the walls and the dogs barking every time I pounded on something (They thought someone was at the door!), my husband and I agreed that I needed to have a space of my own. He immediately went to work building me a workbench and transformed a room in the basement where I could work undisturbed. I think it really was so the rest of the family was undisturbed! I can now pound, play my music (loud) and generally get the creative juices flowing. I hope you like my work!

Slowly but surely working my way back in to my studio after taking some time off. Feeling some inspiration and knowing I need to get ready for holiday show coming up! Here it is mid October and 78 degrees in Northern MI!

Anyways, beautiful colors on the trees right now and they inspired me to pick this tin for some Vintage Tin Earrings! Gold plated earring wires. As always, if interested in purchasing please DM me.

I still love making earrings out of vintage tin! I particularly love this tin design!

They say this tin is from the 1950’s. I’m still trying to wrap my head around that one, since I was born in the 50’s!!😳 So am I vintage?

Anywho - vintage tin and hypoallergenic titanium ear wires!
