Shelby Koester fell in love with jewelry making about 20 years ago after taking a jewelry-making class during a night away from her young children. She has been creating ever since, developing one-of-a-kind, small-batch, and custom jewelry using a variety of techniques and materials. Often inspired by nature and a love of fun, colorful design, Shelby approaches jewelry as wearable art that can tell a story, elevate a mood, and inspire confidence. Her goal is to create pieces that are visually interesting, comfortable to wear, and make the wearer feel beautiful.
