Our Handmade Gifts includes jewelry created by artisans Deborah Carney, Liz Ababon, Leah Helmrich, Ralph Helmrich and Vinny O'Hare. Formerly involved with Print on Demand companies to sell her photography and art, Carney found the handmade community sites to be too corporate focused and not personalized enough. Investigating some art links posted by other artists on Twitter, Carney discovered that there is a market for "mini prints" or art on pendants. While most artists work with polymer clay and transfers, Carney perfected a technique to print her art and photography on canvas and fuse it to the clay, and create art you can wear.
Family team Karen and Ralph Helmrich with daughter Leah, work with intricate wire and create jewelry using a technique called "chainmail". Chainmail is a technique for creating chains, earrings, necklaces and bracelets using small wire rings (including copper, silver and gold plate) and weaving them to create their pieces. Leah also creates "steampunk" and enjoys working with wire to create other designs that appeal to the younger crowd. Ralph actually creates not only the jewelry pieces, but the components their jewelry is made of. Handmade in the USA with wire and jumprings made in the USA also.
Liz Ababon loves working with wire and beads and all sorts of components to make her jewelry and gift items that appeal to a wide range of people. Ababon is also a veteran and is proud to have created several pieces in our National Pride category.
Vinny O'Hare specializes in earrings created out of wire rings that focus on team colors for sports enthusiasts to be able to wear and show their team pride.
Our Handmade Gifts artisans also believe in giving back to the community, and are proud to feature a special section of jewelry where a portion of the proceeds go to various charities. Breast cancer awareness is first on the list of charities we support.
The blend of artisans complements the offerings of each of them, making the site different from other sites selling handmade items. Our Handmade Gifts exists to give shoppers a one of a kind shopping experience with unique gifts you won't find elsewhere. Gifts start at $5 and cover all price ranges. As a special incentive to our new customers we offer a coupon for 20% off your first order with code: NewCust20OHG
