Welcome to the unique handcrafted jewelry of hodgepodgerie.

Hot Off The Wire:

New Jewelry – Feather Cuff – I'm having lots of fun making cuff bracelets and using a metalworking technique called fold-forming. Check out my latest "feathery" creation.

New Class – Basic Wire Boot Camp™ – Learn to create your own beautiful and unique wire jewelry in this intense, fast-paced and exciting 2 day workshop.

You're not like anyone else, so why wear jewelry that's like everyone else's? There's just no reason to do so when you can wear unique handcrafted jewelry that allows you to express your individuality.

At hodgepodgerie you'll discover fresh, trendsetting, sometimes eclectic but always out-of-the-ordinary designs. It's my pleasure to offer you jewelry that will let you stand out in a crowd!

unique handcrafted jewelry

hodgepodgerie jewelry may include any or all of the following components:

freeform copper bangle bracelet
  • Semiprecious gemstones
  • Precious metals like copper and Sterling silver 
  • Artisan-made lampwork glass
  • Swarovski and Czech glass crystals
  • Ancient artifacts such as African and Native American trade beads, fossils and coins
  • Other unique design elements handcrafted by me

I invite you to relax and peruse my galleries of bangles, bracelets and necklaces. As you'll see in the photos, I specialize in "cold metal" work, which means no heat is involved. Just a whole lot of cutting, hammering, bending, twisting, coiling, riveting, planishing, tumbling and etching.

I also enjoy custom jewelry design. If there's something special that you'd like me to create for you, maybe even using some of your own components, just let me know and I promise a quick response to discuss your ideas. It is my sincere desire that you recognize the meticulous attention to detail in the design and craftsmanship that goes into every piece of hodgepodgerie handcrafted jewelry.


Are you a wire jewelry artist yourself or aspiring to become one? Then you'll want to check out my pages of wire jewelry classes and wire jewelry tutorials. I also offer a nice selection of copper beads and findings for your jewelry projects. And, in my wire jewelry Q & A area I encourage you to ask questions about your jewelry projects and contribute your own responses to other artists' questions.

Enjoy your visit!
