It was two years ago today that I made the leap to working for myself full time! Actually, it was two years ago on February 29th, on leap day, that I made the leap! The past two years have been amazing, and I have never regretted my decision to leave my office job and pursue Beryllina full time. I love making jewelry and I hope to continue for a long, long time.
I'd like to thank everyone who has helped make this possible. Your support has been incredible! I'd especially like to thank my husband, Jared, who has given me his unconditional support and encouragement while I've been getting my business off the ground. He is my biggest fan and always thinks I can accomplish anything I set my mind to. Thank you Jared!
And to everyone who has come to visit me at a show, liked or shared my jewelry on facebook, purchased any of my work, carried my jewelry at your gallery, or had a custom piece of jewelry made, you have contributed immensely to my dream and I hope that I've given you something special in return. I am very grateful for your contribution, and for you! Here's to many more years of handmade eco-friendly jewelry.
