I’m Happier with Handmade, especially since I’ve found so many artists with the same interests as myself, though with various different talents. I have a website, www.GenesisJewelry-Gems.com. I also would like to share my site with others! On the site is a “Talking Jewelry” blog. ANYBODY is able to post their own creations- for FREE!! I’m also hoping to receive more photo submissions to have my first “Featured Artist” with a page dedicated to that artist. I’m hoping for that to be monthly. My site is new, though I’m not new to jewelry, design, fashion or business. I hope this post is viewed as I mean for it to be. An invitation to collaborate.

I’ve had to extend and open myself to offering more than ONLY handmade due to the inquiries from my clients. Though I was hesitant, I agreed. The amazing thing is that now I have relationships and collaborations with other Designers, Artisans as well as in the Jewelry and Mining Industries. I’m also offering to lend my services to others. I am capable of acquiring ANY gemstone needed at fair prices. So, if you’re a member of It’s Better Handmade and ever need gemstones, gold, silver, copper, wire- please let me know you are a member. You’ll receive a special discount that’s only available directly through me.

Why am I doing this? Because I realized long ago that if you weren’t born with wealth and a well known family, it’s extremely hard to become branded, recognized, etc. Honestly, I’m too old to chase down the dream of becoming a famous designer. So I am trying to help others reach their dreams. I have contacts with magazines, publisher’s, etc.

I look forward to being a part of this group and hope we can help each other and all these very talented artists!!

Warm Regards
