Jeri Bee (Studio #31)
I'm Jeri Bee, a lifelong creative human living in Oregon and a maker from an early age. My mom recounted the stories of my first greeting card line at 6 years old and at 10 inventing my first jewelry pieces from a jumbo bag of primary colored buttons I’d been gifted. The bracelets and necklaces were all the rage, it was the 80’s after all! From that day forward I was hooked! #dontstopbelieving
I believe everyone has a creative voice via one medium or another and fostering creativity is vital to navigating the journey of life. My practical approach is reflected in fresh minimalistic poetry and nature-inspired jewelry, sprinkled with a welcoming down-to-earth instruction style. When I'm not teaching silversmith basics, I'm creating jewelry that weaves together my love of nature, poetry and life experiences. Each unique piece conveys a story and intentionality, with a commitment to affordability and designing jewelry that is both artistic and accessible to all.
NOTE: There are no stairs, however part of the walk to the studio includes a bark chip path.
Jeri will be hosting Lisa McCutcheon, Kim NewDelman, and Steven Walgrave. Jeri Bee with Bee Creative PDX is our Red Ribbon Sponsor.
