Tell us more about what you do?       

I make amulets, jewelry, and a few other odds and ends from the gifts collected from Mother Nature. I combine them with polymer clay and resin to make one of a kind pieces of strength and beauty. My pieces are often inspired by folklore, legend, and celestial events.

Each piece is a one of a kind item encouraging people to walk their own paths and to find their way.

How long have you been working at this?             

20 years, at first just as gifts, now I’m working on it as a business.

What is your Mission Statement?            

To encourage and support those in finding their way along their path and to make affordable pieces for these one of a kind people.

What is your favorite part about what you do?  

Seeing someone find their perfect piece.

Why did you start this professional Journey?      

It took me a long time to grow into being comfortable with being just me. I often see others who are struggling with this same lack of value and I like making objects that they can look at or touch to help remind them that its okay to be just who they are or that they can find the knowledge and/or strength they need.

What can you offer customers that your competitors can’t?         

I know there are others out there that make beautiful items along the same line as I do. My pieces are never mass produced. Each piece is made when the items I’m working on tell me what they want to be and are to made inspire and encourage. These aren’t just pretty baubles; they are made with intent and purpose.

How would you handle a herd of cats?   

Buy a bunch of cat food and kitty litter and hope for the best. And apologize to my dog.

Tell us more about your business?          

I am blessed with living in the country and get to create in my home. I am surrounded by hundreds of acres of fields and woods that not only offer inspiration but continually offers gifts to work with.

Who has been an inspiration to you along this path?       

Judika Illes; somehow out of reading her books I got “wear your magic”.

What superpower would you like to have? and why        

I don’t know if it’s considered a super power but I’d like to be able to talk to the animals. I’d love to know some of the secrets they have about the area I’m in.

When you are not working what do you do?       

Go exploring, reading and I’m working on building a dollhouse.

How do you include your Pagan faith in your work?         

That kind of depends on the piece. I may make something during a lunar eclipse to draw in the power that is present then or the piece will incorporate an element from an animal or plant that is used as a power source.

Thank you so much Lee for taking the time to tell us more about you and what you do! Your work is amazing and I love that it calls to the individual.
