I make jewelry that

Gets a Second Glance!

Let me craft you a pair of earrings that catches the eye—and frames your smile!


I believe you’re here to be true to yourself.

Hi, I’m Stacie.

I’m a jewelry designer, Human Design guide, painter, and writer. My work centers around helping people express who they are, underneath all the conditioning about who they should be.

I create weathered jewelry to reflect that living a full life means making mistakes that leave scars, honoring your individuality, and connecting more to the essential elements of life on earth.

I also guide people through Human Design to help them understand themselves better and overcome self-sabotaging behaviors that hinder their natural brilliance.

I work with those who are tired of pretending. They want to feel seen, they want to express what’s real, and they want to stop overthinking it.

This work isn’t about fixing you or helping you become someone else. It’s about getting honest, letting go of what’s not yours, and choosing expression over perfection — whether that’s through what you wear, how you create, or how you lead your life.

I strive to walk my talk. I’m rooted, disarmingly vulnerable, and direct, and I love meaningful connections. If you spend any time with me, you’ll immediately recognize that I try to get to the heart of the matter quickly.

Surface-level conversation isn’t my thing.

My soul’s work consists of exploring transformation through pressure, environment, and time.

It’s nice to meet you.

My Jewelry Story

I've always been drawn to making jewelry. As a child, I wove clover necklaces on the playground. In my teens, I twisted scrap telephone wire into keychains and rings. In my 20s, while working on small ships in Alaska, I strung beads into necklaces for my crewmates.

By my 30s, I was weaving sterling wire into jewelry, which led to full-on metalworking. My first studio in Chattanooga was where my studio partner and I taught ourselves to solder with a simple propane torch. Later, I learned stone setting and lapidary techniques while working briefly for a jeweler in Black Mountain, NC.

Each decade has brought new skills and materials, and I know I'll never stop learning.

I love to focus on earrings, because they frame the face while drawing attention to the eyes and smile. My jewelry isn’t just an adornment; it’s a touchstone for self-expression and connection.

I wanted to go deeper into the mysteries of self-expression, and I discovered the Human Design System in 2015. Sharing Human Design with those who are interested is a true joy of mine!

I’m Now A Human Design Guide.

As a certified Human Design Guide, I help people reconnect with their unique energy, purpose, and inner knowing when it comes to making important decisions

My guidance often flows into my creative work—especially my jewelry—which I design as wearable reminders that are aligned with the energies of transformation and self-discovery.

Whether through a session or a piece you choose to wear, my intention is to support your journey back to your authentic self.

In Human Design terms, I’m an Emotional Generator

I’m someone who learns through experience, connects deeply with others, and evolves through creative change. I try and follow what feels true in the present moment, and patiently let emotional clarity guide my decisions.

I love to connect with others, but I also need time to be quiet as I reflect upon my past experiences to make sense of things through creativity and storytelling.

I make sense of my view of the world through jewelry, writing, making art, and guiding others to their true selves as we grow and evolve together.

I honor what matters from the past while staying open to what needs to change, or emerge for a better tomorrow.

At the end of the day, if I’ve been patient in my decision-making, I sleep deeply, experiencing deep satisfaction that I used my energy productively.

If I instead feel restless and frustrated, I know that I wasn’t responding to life as it unfolds, and was trying to force my productivity by not waiting for my clarity to emerge in its own time.

Everything is about honoring my right timing.

This is what I help you discover about your particular energetic needs, and guide you to finding your right timing.


Alone in my studio, I paint, dream, and make jewelry that aligns with my soul—my pieces draw attention to your smile, your joy, and the presence you’ve built decision by decision, over time.

I believe that true self-expression deepens with age.

However, with time, your story is revealed.

Choices are made, paths taken, and the pressure to prove yourself, find love, and belonging leaves a mark.

This is why I work primarily with silver.

It can take my hammer’s blow and grow more beautiful with every strike. I give it a patina, too—a testament to its endurance, just like us.

I find texture beautiful in metal, in life, and spirit.

I tend to focus on earrings because they’re personal.

They frame your face, your words, and your laughter. I blend metal with pearls and turquoise with plenty of texture on the metal to women who choose to wear their stories boldly and unapologetically.

My work isn’t about blending in; it’s about standing out.

It’s about celebrating us, right now, as unforgettable as we truly are.

A little history…

I have been a member of three cooperative galleries and have published about a dozen jewelry tutorials in Step By Step Wire Jewelry Magazine and Belle Armoire Jewelry Magazine.

Over the years, I’ve worked in vibrant studio spaces—both independently and in collaboration with talented partners in Eugene, Oregon; Chattanooga, TN; Asheville, NC in the River Arts District, and here in Roanoke, VA.

I’ve sold my work at numerous outdoor art shows, with my first show in New Orleans right after Katrina did her level best to wipe out the Gulf. I’ve taught women how to solder at artBLISS in Washington, D.C., as well as in my studios.

I also ran a successful wholesale business with an exceptional jewelry representative until the disruptions caused by COVID-19 and the passing of both of my parents from cancer.

I started caregiving in 2021, which led me to pause my business for a while as I recovered from the experience of losing my parents and mother-in-law, as well as personally dealing with a serious autoimmune condition (stress can wreck your body!).

As I was processing the grief associated with losing my parents and my mother-in-law, who was like a parent, I turned to painting in watercolors and gel pens. A dear friend liked what she saw and convinced me to turn my little Indigo paintings into a card line. I sell them in Staunton and Roanoke, Virginia.

In late 2024, I decided to return to studio life, and I am now happily creating once again—this time with renewed purpose and passion—in my new jewelry and painting studio in Vinton, Virginia.
