I am very excited to announce that Natural Beauty Jewelry has a new permanent studio location in the Northwestern Building! Over the last month I have been working hard moving the business into its new home in Lowertown Saint Paul. The new space will allow me to branch out into the metalsmithing world and introduce what many of you have been asking for… a new line of silver rings!

I share suite #260 with Julie Keller of Jules Glass Art who makes beautiful glass pendants and assorted glass art pieces. We will be open for the St. Paul Art Crawl twice a year, for Lowertown First Fridays (LFF) every first Friday of each month and by appointment in between.

Thank you to all of my customers who have made this possible. I hope to see you soon!

It’s time for the Spring 2010 St. Paul Art Crawl this weekend! Be sure to download a directory from the art crawl website before heading out the door. Otherwise you can pick one up at any of the participating artist buildings.
