Brand · Retailer · Jewelry store

hello! I am Randi I am self taught in jewelry making and ceramics. But I fell in love with clay when I started working at a handmade tile company. What I love is the way clay starts out in blocks and you can turn it into infinite possibilities. Each piece is made by me and all the designs start in a sketchbook. I love creating meaning out of the things that inspire me. Some of the things that inspire organic and geometric shapes, chubby birds and their feathers and the smell of good candle burning while reading a true crime novel or maybe an episode of SVU. (Stabler + Benson 4EVR) My favorite things include my boo, coffee, chocolate, my dogs, a good show binge, and of course creating things by hand. So, now you know about me and I hope you enjoy my art! I currently reside in Charlotte, NC but I am from Minneapolis, MN. Just a Midwest gal living in the South who just discovered that BBQ is a style not a get together. Your name is Randi not Gloria Faye? The name comes from my Boubi (grandmother) who taught me the importance of supporting handcrafted goods. Often times growing up my presents were from a tenant or a friend who made a candle or bracelet. She taught me how beautiful handmade goods are and she always inspired me to create and this shop is in Gloria's memory.
