Meet your jeweler, Laurelann
I'm Laurelann, the creative soul behind Wrapped Up In Jewelry.
I live in New Hampshire with my husband, and our dogs Luthor and Willow. Together, we enjoy the natural world that the state has to offer—mountains, trails, waterfalls—where much of my inspiration for designs comes from.
Some random facts about me:
-
My favorite crystals are carnelian, prehnite and labradorite
-
I have several tattoos
-
I love plants and have over 30 in my home
-
I have a BA and MFA in Creative Writing
I've always loved creating and all things artsy, long before this business became a reality. Writing and publishing a novel (or more!) has been my first goal in life, so if you follow my Instagram, you may see me post about that!
I never thought I would run a business, but I couldn't imagine my life without it now. I've connected with so many wonderful people along the way, and love to continue to share my creations with you!
The story of
Wrapped Up In Jewelry
When I was little, my parents gifted me with some beads and other simple jewelry making items. I loved playing with different colors and shapes, and finding ways to uniquely string the beads together.
A few years after that, I started seeing photos of wire-wrapped designs online, and I knew it was something I wanted to learn how to do.
I bought myself basic supplies and played with wire through high school for fun, and when I started college, it became a stress-relief activity to create for fun.
Sometime during that period, I realized how much I loved creating wire-wrapped crystal jewelry, and I decided to focus on forming a business.
Since doing so in 2016, I've had the joy of connecting to people across the United States and even in other countries, and I expanded into teaching classes locally as well.
Handcrafted jewelry that tells a story
I hope to help you find the crystals that best suit or compliment you and your spiritual side.
Each unique piece of jewelry evokes a connection to nature. Crystals represent the element of earth, a space where we feel grounded, stable, and most at peace.
The flowing designs I create for crystals leave an openness to best display the beauty of the crystal itself but for you to also connect to the crystal and feel grounded while wearing it.
If you're looking for something special, or would like to see one of your own crystals wrapped, I'm happy to chat about how I can make your visions come to life!
