.Deborah Annable
Lives in Scottsdale, Arizona but is a Texas girl. Growing up in a family with 5 girls and a mom who always had them creating something it was inevitable that she would always find joy working with her hands making something out of stuff. Deborah's interest in jewelry began 15 years ago when her daughter Lauren came to her wanting a charm bracelet like one her friend had. Since then she has worked in every medium of jewelry there is but in recent years has found her greatest satisfaction in working with metal and wire. She has taught classes in various stores throughout the valley and out of her home studio since becoming a resident of Arizona. She makes jewelry as a hobby for friends and family and has sold her jewelry by special order. Although Deborah enjoys gifting her pieces her true passion is teaching others the techniques she has learned. She enjoys seeing others realize their potential to make something they never thought they could. Deborah and her daughter, Lauren have plans to further develop an online business together this year.
Lauren Annable
Moved to Scottsdale a year ago. She is also a Texas girl. Lauren’s artistic interests began about 13 years ago when her friend needed t-shirts for their band. She designed and hand stitched the logo on all the t-shirts and created personally designed t-shirts for all of her friends for every concert they attended after that. A short time later she started making chain mail jewelry and began selling her pieces at work. Lauren’s growing interest in jewelry spilled over to her friends and she began teaching some of them how to make their own jewelry. Since then she has started working more with metals and as a quick learner is continuously learning new techniques. She continues to get orders for new pieces from her old clientele in Texas and is expending her etsy business moving to Arizona. Lauren along with her mom have plans to further develop an online business together this year.
