* My service pledge to you *  My jewelry designs are unique and I individually handcraft each piece and thoroughly enjoy the process. To be true to myself, the creative process and my customers, I search for the best Gemstones, materials and the right ideas; and I continually study and practice to improve my craftsmanship. My goal is to create jewelry you will love to wear and to give.  I also love to create something special for you so don't hesitate to contact me at any time.

You will find Artisan Jewelry that celebrates our world-the Ocean, the Mountains, the Earth, and the Critters who inhabit these areas.  There is jewelry which: Honors endangered animal; May remind you of pleasant times spent at the beach watching the waves roll in, or gazing out over a mountain vista; Oris simply just pretty to look at and wear.  All of my jewelry is handcrafted, wearable art.  I make each piece with care and love using sterling and fine silver, semi-precious gemstones, pearls, and other natural beads. Gold is not used because of the cost of mining it: the cost of damage to the environment, and exploitation of native people.

My name is Jeni Smathers, and I have been obsessed with beading for over 13 years. I make high quality, one of a kind or limited edition art jewelry and accessories. I got tired of cheap, mass produced jewelry that falls apart right after you buy it, and decided I could do it better. Besides, who wants to wear the same thing everyone else has? I began making pieces for myself and for gifts, and it has progressed into a business.  I also make commissioned pieces and competition entries, and I organize a combination bead swap and beading challenge for Beading Daily's forum members.  Please visit my ArtFire studio and blog to learn more!

Making jewelry is what I love to do. I have been doing it for almost 40 years and I'm still creating new designs every time I sit at my bench. I enjoy making freeform bezel set rings and pendants the most, but also make earrings, barrettes, belt buckles and more. I love doing custom orders!

Jewelry designing is a special art form for me. All pieces are OOAK. I hunt everywhere for unique items to turn into jewelry, and at the same time, keeping prices affordable. With that said, some items are in limited quantity and may be for that piece alone. My designs vary to appeal to as many people as possible. Custom requests are welcome.

I love to spend my free time making wearable art; such as tied and beaded necklaces, bracelets, earrings etc. I enjoy making adornments for the body, sole-less jeweled thong-like footwear and ankle ornaments, jeweled hairpins, wrist-to-ring combinations, nosegays and more. I have been known to apply 'One-Nighter Jewelry;' the use of jewels applied directly to the skin. I love putting things in hair, be that threads, weaving, ornaments, it doesn't matter what it is if it works well...it's all good!

Life on the Edge...  Recently, we turned the Dairy over to our youngest son.  Packed up and moved to the edge of the Oregon Outback. This has brought new inspiration to my jewelry designs that let my imagination run free! I love writing "Stories" or "Verse" and so that is always part of the design. I use ONLY the BEST of the BEST lampwork from Ebay Artisans. Bali & sterling silver, Swarovski crystals and gemstones. Using 49 strand professional wire and all it takes to make The finest, One of A Kind Bracelets, Necklaces and Earrings that you will love to wear.

I have had a lifelong love of jewelry. I love the hunt to find unique and interesting beads that speak to me and then create unique, one of a kind piece of jewelry from them.  I have branched out from just stringing and taken classes in lampworking and metalsmithing. I hope to grow my abilities and begin creating new works of arts in both the glass and metal mediums. I have recently opened my own studio.  My pieces have won awards and prizes.
