I typically block out a week of time at a stretch and work from home on my kitchen table. Although I could build a beautiful studio at work, I think it is really important to create in the same way that many of our customers are going to be creating; in make shift spaces. My husband built me a bookshelf on wheels that I can wheel out of my bedroom, pull all my baskets from under my bed and set-up my studio for the week.

I feel my current editorial work as well as the opening image to my site reflect these loves.

I started my first business over 25 years ago in the stationery industry. The company that I co-founded was one of the first companies to create high-end recycled stationery products produced from post-consumer waste. After selling my company, I had a 2 year non-compete agreement within the stationery industry.

There, in the land of the midnight sun, Becky Nunn first discovered her budding sensibilities as an artist, and entrepreneur.

This “flash” layer of copper plating is what allows the precious metals to adhere to the finding’s surface. Earrings and ear wires are then plated using imported 24k gold and .999 fine silver.
