Kriss

I’ve been making jewelry since 1992. I have been teaching jewelry workshops since 1995. Although my passion has been to create, it is also rewarding to share these designs and techniques with others. My foucs took a turn in 2001 when I had my daughter. I had to discover a balance that allowed me to create as well be a punk rock mom. So I found a new motto; "To design and create something beautiful with the ability to teach it, rather than make it a hundred times.”My passion for unique jewelry designs are conveyed in the types of metals, gemstones and color combinations that I use. My aesthetics and designs are definitely not run-of- the-mill. My classes are well received where I’m currently teaching all over the nation. Born and raised in Lawndale, California, I moved to Northern California and that’s where I met my husband, Jim Swiiler and together we moved to Hawaii in 1994. I now have a beautiful 6 year old daughter, Blixa, and live in San Francisco, CA.
