Commissions


Looking for something special? Have a vision you want brought to life? I’d love to hear it.

I’m always happy to explore your ideas and provide a personalized quote. If you’re local to Connecticut or Windsor County, Vermont, we can meet in person to look at materials and begin sketching. I also regularly take commissions over email or phone, making the process smooth from anywhere.

Over the years, I’ve created everything from custom ornaments and nightlights to jewelry sets and "forever bouquets" for brides—pressing and arranging flowers, integrating meaningful materials, and crafting keepsake save-the-dates.




Getting Started

The best first step is sharing your budget. It ensures transparency from the beginning and helps me design something beautiful within your comfort range. Reference photos are incredibly helpful. They give me a sense of the colors, textures, and overall mood you’re imagining. From initial sketch to the final polish, I’ll work with you closely to create a piece that feels personal, intentional, and entirely one-of-a-kind.



Pricing & What to Consider

Rates vary by project, but I aim for transparency and accessibility. Here are the main elements that shape your quote:

1. Glass Selection

Some colors and textures—like cobalt blue or gold-pink hues—are rarer and more expensive. We can explore smooth, rippled, frosted, mirrored, or heavily textured glass depending on your vision.

2. Solder & Finish

Choose between silver solder for a bright, modern look or copper solder for warmth and richness. Patinas are also available for a darker, antique finish.

3. Shape, Size & Intricacy

Geometric pieces, botanical forms, layered elements, and detailed cuts each require different levels of time and precision. Larger or more intricate projects will adjust your quote accordingly.

4. Jewelry Components

Hardware & Fastenings: Hooks, studs, or leverbacks for earrings; sterling silver, brass, ribbon, silk cord, leather cord, or wirework for necklaces and pendants.
Metals: Sterling silver and hypoallergenic options available.
Sets: Coordinated earring + necklace sets, wedding party sets, or custom matching collections.
Size & Style: From dainty and minimal to bold and sculptural, every piece is tailored to fit your aesthetic.

5. Timeline

Standard timelines vary, and rush orders may be possible depending on the complexity of your design.

6. Packing & Delivery

Secure, prompt shipping. Complimentary local hand-delivery is available when possible.





I believe thoughtful, handcrafted work should remain accessible in price.
It would be my pleasure to bring your vision to life with care!
