Just B

BelindaMy earliest, and best childhood memories are centered around my Grandma. She didn’t have much in the way of money (my mom was one of five children), but she gave me the gift of time. She had this amazing wicker basket filled with beautiful glass beads, and together we’d string necklaces, bracelets and other beautiful creations. She showed me all her costume jewelry, and let me play dress-up with it. The few fine jewelry pieces she did own (a few rings and a very special chain) were among her most prized possessions. Seeing how special these items were to her, and hearing the stories behind them, left an indelible mark on me.

Just B Design is a culmination of this history, combined with a love of nature, flowers, movement and color. My pieces are meant to be enjoyed daily, and passed on from generation to generation. Jewelry and goldsmithing have always been my passion. Please share the stories surrounding the receipt of these beautiful treasures with your loved ones. Perhaps your stories will ignite the passion for jewelry, and all things beautiful, in the next generations.
