I am a self-taught jewelry designer who found her passion in this art form five years ago after stumbling into a bead shop while visiting St. Louis. My life hasn't been the same since that time. What started out as a hobby, quickly grew into a business. It seemed that everywhere I went, people wanted to buy the jewelry that I was wearing! Since that time I have sold my jewelry in high-end boutiques, gift shops, hotels, art shows, individual shows, an art gallery, and online from my previous website, UptownJewelry.com. Most evenings, and in much of my spare time, you will find me either in my jewelry studio, online working on this website, or looking for interesting beads to buy! As a life-long creator and crafter since age 12, my initial craft involved a love of fabric and included all kinds of needlework and sewing. By the 9th grade, I was sewing many of my own clothes! My other hobbies have included creating recipes and decorating. What makes the jewelry on this website different from the rest? Many of my jewelry items are inspired by apparel that I have either purchased or noticed in a store or boutique. This jewelry is designed to be unique but also versatile and practical so that it can be worn while kicking around on your day off, while on a business trip, or while out for an evening on the town. Also, this jewelry is custom made to order. I believe it is important that your jewelry is sized to fit you, so I offer a wide range of sizes custom made for you, including plus sizes. Additionally, much of this jewelry can be purchased in sets, so you won't have to buy a necklace and then have to search elsewhere for earrings to match. This website makes it easy for you to shop for your jewelry needs. Finally, you have my
assurance that I only use quality components in my jewelry designs. I explain
in detail what each design is made of in my jewelry descriptions, so you do not
have to guess what it is made of. |

After exploring the fashion industry in New York, Whitney turned her focus to jewelry. Returning to her hometown in Pennsylvania and with the support of her husband, JT, and her son, Jake, she ventured into uncharted territory and created a line of earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings and other novelties. In 1998, wired, a unique jewelry experience was created. Having enjoyed continued success at arts festivals, wired is now being brought to you through this online boutique for convenient shopping. The concept of wired designs is distinctive by virtue of the hands-on technique used in making each piece. All designs are made in sterling silver and each link is carefully hand turned to create a specific style. All wire used is of the highest quality to ensure superior strength and durability beyond that of conventional silver chain. This same material is also used in all of the blackened designs in which the sterling silver has been oxidized to give the piece it's unique patina. Semi-precious stones and other materials are used to accent an assortment of styles. Whitney enjoys creating each handmade designs, turning the wire herself and choosing materials that complement each piece. |
