There’s a monster among us, silently and stealthily robbing us of our sense of calm. I don’t know about you, but Coronavirus (COVID-19) has affected my sense of well-being. My heart goes out to the families all around the world that have been personally impacted by this horrible virus and the lives lost way too soon.  Find out ways to cope and find strength, joy and grace. 

How do you feel when you buy that ''must-have, gotta have it now” new necklace, pair of earrings or cool bracelet? A piece of jewelry that you have been dreaming about and imagining yourself wearing.  Getting high fives from your friends.  

Well, like snagging tickets to Hamilton!

On March 14, we celebrate Pi day!  Did you know that jewelry designers use Pi to calculate how much metal to use in our designs.  Read my blog and find out how we use it?   Bonus: a recipe for a favorite pie.

In any profession, everyone benefits from learning new skills.  As a jewelry artist, learning new techniques or improving upon skills results in better jewelry designs that I'm sure my customers will love and appreciate.   I believe in continual learning to I can deliver the best jewelry to my customers.   

Making jewelry calls on skills other than the creative.  Jewelers require a knowledge of math, science and technology combined with visual arts to create beautiful pieces. In fact, many jewelers use the same tools and technology that can be seen in STEM fields.

There are many stereotypes and obstacles that women in STEM fields still have to overcome. One of them is being smart, beautiful and stylish. Candace Stribling Jewelry strives to help mid-career STEM women by designing minimalist jewelry that you can wear from day to evening and supporting organizations that encourage young girls to seek careers in STEM.
