My name is Stefani. Vintage fashion and retro home décor fill me with glee. I like modern art and rock & roll. I am constantly scouring thrift shops, yard sales and flea markets for old objects that appeal to my design sensibilities in some way. Making jewelry is what I do to stay grounded. I design things that I would wear myself and sometimes incorporate vintage, salvaged or found objects into my work. I hold a BFA in design and currently work as a bookbinder in North Carolina where I live with my amazing husband and two super-curious housecats.This blog serves as a photographic record of my various art, craft, culinary and gardening experiments.
retronym is my line of original handmade jewelry. It can be purchased here.
