Serena also does special orders. If you have a pattern from a loved one you want preserved Serena can turn that pattern into beautiful jewelry.

Tell us a little about yourself and what you sell.
I live in southern IN, 59 years old, retired, widowed, and sell broken china jewelry. My main interest other than my jewelry is Australian Sheperd Rescue which I have been involved in for about 12 years.

My favorite thing about creating my jewelry is preserving the past. I love the fact that a dish that is over 100 years old can be made into a keepsake that will last for generations. I do quite a bit of custom work making jewelry out of dishes that belonged to relatives who have passed on. I feel as though I'm remaking a memory for that person.

I decided to do this work because I loved antique dishes and hated the thought that once they were damaged or broken that they would be thrown away. They were too beautiful to just be thrown into the trash.

I love running my Etsy shop as I have met so many people who love what I do for some of the same reasons I do. It has been a great experience and a lot of fun.

I am inspired to make my jewelry by the beautiful patterns of the dish and to preserve as many of them as I can. I like to think about where the dish might have come from, was it someones wedding china and knowing that at some point and time that antique dish meant a lot to someone.
