A Jack-of-all-trades, Anne has always
had an interest in art and craft. As a child she began making wire
jewelry in the form of clip-on earrings made from telephone wire. Her
great aunt was a rock hound who helped Anne polish stones to wrap in wire,
and in her teen years she added beading and polymer clay to her interests. She took a break from jewelry making in college, choosing to study Biology
because of her love of the outdoors and the human body (and she thought it would be
more employable than an art
degree). In 2004 she decided to follow her creative interests and
launched AnneMade Jewelry.
Although
mostly self-taught, she has had the pleasure of learning
metalsmithing and PMC from
Carolyn McManus, PMC Certification from Tim McCreight,
lampwork from Starleen Colon, and
wirework from Barb Switzer, Eni Oken, Lisa Niven Kelly, Sharilyn Miller,
and Connie Fox.
Anne and her family
live
in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley.

"Don't
you love the feeling you get when you wear a beautiful, unique piece of
jewelry? I hope you enjoy wearing and sharing my designs as much as
I love creating them."
