I'm 24 years old and live in Belgium (Europe). In my spare time I like to get crafty. Not to long ago I discovered the trade of making jewelry and I’ve been hooked ever since. Where it all just started with some beads, string and some fun workshops; I soon wanted so incorporate metals into my work. Sterling silver, both in its natural form and oxidized, along with copper are my favorites. I did some experiments on my own but still craved for something more. That’s why I started my first year in jewelry design in September 2007. So after graduating from college only last year (psychology), I’m now turning my old desk into in a real workbench. My goals are to learn and master a lot more techniques and this will be represented in the jewelry I will make, so check back often.

I find it hard to describe the jewelry I make. Often I tend to make jewelry that’s simple and sober, yet striking. Other times I feel like making more colorful and bold jewelry, so you’re sure to find some variety. Nature and all sorts of photographs form a real inspiration source to me. Besides making jewelry, I also enjoy to take photographs and to travel around.

The things I make are being sold in my etsy shop (http://littlellama.etsy.com). Go check it out!
