Helen & Aimee's Wedding
Helen & Aimee were married on Guemes Island in the Northwest. They requested jewelry that complemented their individual dresses and styles while still being coordinated with one another. I designed and created dangling silver earrings for Aimee with black and blue iridescent pearls. Helen's earrings were gold with ivory pearls in the same style as Aimee's. I also made her a necklace with individually sterling silver wire wrapped pearls with a cluster of pearls that matched her earrings and dress. They looked stunning and in love. For their flower girls I made sterling silver necklaces in differing styles with pearls that were green and ivory to match their wedding theme.

Melissa Hartley Jewelry Design
I create custom jewelry that include custom made glass beads, semi precious stones, leather, and metal. I have always been grateful for art and creating and absolutely love to create jewelry that makes people feel adorned and adored. I have taken metalsmith and glass bead making classes at Pratt in Seattle and enjoy exploring new materials. I love creating glass jewelry because of its ability to take any form, function and color. My father was a custom woodworker and I was always inspired by his ability to create masterpieces suited to his customers. I consider it an honor to create custom jewelry that exactly suits the personality, lifestyle and budget of my clients!
