Today is the First day of the rest of my Blog!

December 13, 2011

My first day!  I will introduce myself for those of you who have not met me.
My name is Carolyn Turner.  I am proud to be a member of the First Nations tribe called the Gitxsan.  Our tribe originates in the Northwest coast of Canada.  That is where my mother was born and raised.

I strive to make my jewelry contain a native flair to each piece whenever possible.  I use natural gemstones in most of my work. I also love to do leatherwork whenever possible.  Right now I am spending most of my time making one of a kind, unique pieces of jewelry.  I drop everything if I get a custom order in for leatherwork.  Such as moccasins, mukluks and native apparel.

I will update you more of my background as I go.  For today, I think this is enough. 
I will say, I love what I do and spend an enormous amount of time and effort in the planning of any piece of work I do. Making jewelry and gifts is my lifelong hobby. If you rush whatever it is that you are doing, then it will look rushed. Thanks for reading today.
