I love handcrafted jewelry. In fact, I am addicted to unusual rings, especially stackables. I don’t care if they come from a garage sale and are acrylic or from a high-end store. But lately I have been thinking about sustainability in jewelry. We already know about organic products for our bodies and have plenty of information for greening our homes. I’m a Taurus and true to my sign, I covet luxurious things. I am concerned about leaving a smaller footprint on this planet so I’ve made a commitment to find sustainable jewelry.
Jennifer Dawes is a jewelry designer from Norther California who creates beautiful sustainable jewelry from recycled gold and conflict free semi-precious stones. She recently launched Sustainably Beautiful a socially and environmentally responsible line of jewelry. According to Jennifer, “I want to add something to this world, not take it away. Becoming a mother has been the most profoundly meaningful and spiritual experience I have ever come to know. It has changed the way I perceive our future and how important it is to the commitment to a socially and environmentally responsible lifestyle.”
Thank you Jennifer! You are right on point.
