Birch and Palm jewelry is designed to reflect the beauty, light and peace found in nature. Most of our pieces are inspired by Florida’s luminous coastal beaches and islands. Each artisan item is handcrafted with high quality gemstones, shells, pearls, wood, coral and other nature-inspired treasures.
I started making jewelry as a hobby years ago. I was a stay-at-home mom with four children and it was a way to be creative, relax and make pretty things..
Recently, three of those lovely children have gone off to college leaving me with my precious high schooler, Jono, who is a wonderfully active, talented, handsome young man with Down Syndrome. He has changed my life and opened my eyes to things I didn't know or see. While he is out conquering the world, I stay flexible for him by doing something meaningful and fun for myself. Making jewelry is fun!
About Me
My jewelry is nature-inspired because I love being outside. I mostly love being outside when it is warm - really warm - my favorite time outside is in July on a beach in Sanibel, Florida. However, the majority of my time is still in St. Paul, Minnesota. Making coastal-inspired jewelry takes me to the beach while I look outside at the birch trees, hydrangeas and black-eyed Susans in my backyard.
