Profile Information
- Location:
- North of the Twin Cities, Minnesota
- About Me:
- I've been married to the best man in the entire world for 17 years. We have 4 incredible boys, busy, wild, active, but incredible boys under the age of 13.
I have my store at www.eyecandycreative.etsy.com
Here is my artist bio:
Kirsten Thompson’s love of all things creative began in high school photography. That creative passion continued in college through ceramics, painting, advanced photography and graphic design. Earning her BS degree in Graphic Design, she followed with over 10 years in the design community with a fortune 500 company before landing her biggest challenge, domestic engineer. Raising four boys with her husband in mid-central Minnesota provides her plenty of creative juices for her unique limited edition and most often one-of-a-kind jewelry designs. Kirsten’s earliest pieces years ago used plastics, vintage beads and other found objects. Now her palette includes semi-precious stones including, turquoise, grossular garnet, amazonite, sterling silver, Hill Tribe and Bali silver. “People say my pieces make them feel good. “If the jewelry brings joy and peace, I think maybe it comes from my absolute love of designing it and knowing that my spirit is a part of each one. Maybe the peace comes out from what goes into the work - passion, hope, belief and prayer."

Trunk Show and Wine Drinking!
I had a request from a friend to hold a viewing of my jewelry. She has family coming in for Thanksgiving and wanted to buy their Christmas gifts.

So off to Trader Joe's to get a case of vino. I made a tiramisu dessert, got your standard munchies, and whoolah… Continue

I am putting together a 5 part blog post over this weekend to talk about how to use DaWanda to expand your business, why it can benefit you, who is buying on DaWanda & what you need to know to be successful there!
If you want, check it out on my blog! www.always-amy.blogspot.com I hope it helps you make your decision about DaWanda!
Your work is stunning - very creative.
