Hello everyone! I am a jewelry designer located in the Tampa Bay area. I am pretty new to the business... 2 years ago, I was a 31 year old bartender who still didn't know what I wanted to be " when I grew up" I have been artistic all my life, loving to draw, write and do crafts, but I never knew how to take that love and turn it into a business. Then, one day my mom showed me how to make a very simple necklace and it was like a light went on! I fell in love! I started learning everything and anything I could about designing, and within 4 months, I quit my job and tackled the big world of business owner. 2 businesses actually! It was the best decision I ever made and I love every minute of it! Please feel free to check out my website at www.tenasmithdesigns.com My website is a work in progress! I love art, but computers and technology have always baffled me! Building my site has been a true test of patience, courage and sheer willpower! :)
I see beauty all around me and am constantly looking for new inspiration. I love to learn new techniques and ideas, and am looking for kindred spirits to share with and learn from!
