KIT's BIO....
My start into my artistic life started rather late for me. Having worked for a friend in her business called Lad Sterling back in the 1970’s, doing home parties got my creative juices flowing. I had worked in the real estate industry during the 1970’s and 1980’s when my children were young. I loved helping my customers find their “Forever Home”! While working at Aetna for 15 years in their Middletown facility, I started to dig into my artistic capabilities making badge holders, necklaces, bracelets and earrings for my co-workers using sterling silver beads, semi-precious stones, Swarovski crystals, pearls, vintage beads and wood beads from all over the world. After retiring in 2006, I was able to really focus on designing my Unique, “One of a Kind” hand beaded and sea glass jewelry for friends, family and the public. This has become my passion!
I have participated in many craft fairs/events throughout the greater Hartford area over the years! My CREATIONS have been featured in the Elan Magazine (Shoreline Publishing, LLC, Madison, CT) from 2011 to 2014 in their quarterly issues. In September of 2014, I had the honor of being the featured cover artist in the Glastonbury Life Magazine.
