Danielle is a wonderful designer and I am honored to be able to interview her. She is based in Arkansas, America, and set out eight years ago to create unique handmade jewelry. I hope you enjoy reading about her jewelry as much as I do!
- What was it about the study of Geology that inspired you design gemstone jewelry,
Danielle? I chose Geology because I had always been interested in fossils and rocks. I took a mineralogy class, and this is when I took an interest in minerals (gemstones). At that time, my interest in gemstones was mostly for collecting purposes. I graduated in 2000 and somewhere between then and 2002, I became interested in designing beaded jewelry using semi-precious gemstones, of course. I just loved gemstones, and I wanted to be able to wear them. I never thought I would be designing gemstone jewelry for other people. I basically taught myself and the designs went from a very basic necklace to the gemstone and fossil jewelry designs you see on www.daniellecreations.com and www.gemstonejewelrybydanielle.com - What's the best thing about being a designer? I love expressing myself as a jewelry artist through my designs. I am inspired by the natural minerals and fossils to create simple but expressive handcrafted jewelry designs....CONTINUE READING THE INTERVIEW
