hello cohost! i'm nora and i run a jewelry shop!

i started a few years ago making assembled jewelry from parts, and i still do that sometimes, but i have specialized in fused glass in the past year because i wanted more control over my work. in that time i've really drilled down on making unusual pride jewelry that's different from what you can just get off the shelf in june; i sell it year round.

i also have a specialty in "men's jewelry" (extremely heavy emphasis on the quotes there because i don't believe jewelry should have a gender), particularly bolo ties and cufflinks; i get a lot of gender euphoria in myself by being able to make those things.

i really believe jewelry is for everyone who wants to wear it. i have a default chain length for all my pendants of 24 inches; most jewelers go shorter but i am a fat person with a fat neck and i think 24 inches looks great on me and also great on other people with all kinds of body shapes.

i post shop updates and previews of new stuff, along with glass process, over at @norareeddesigns, and i'm always happy to answer questions about process over there.

shares are always appreciated! i keep my prices pretty low for a handmade seller and i only manage that because i rely on word of mouth marketing. thanks!
