Getting Started...

Hi everyone-
My name is Andrea Duchnowski, creator and designer for Duch-ess Designs.  I wanted to just take a minute to tell you a little bit about myself and how I got my start.

A little over a year ago I started designing jewelry, mainly to help my mom get ready for her first jewelry show.  She was stressing a bit about having enough items to showcase so I started coming over once a week to help her build her inventory and to spend some quality time with her.  I loved every moment we spent together.  Hours would pass like it was minutes.  We played off each others ideas and created some of the most beautiful pieces together, including the jewelry my bridesmaids and I wore at my wedding.  I truly cherish all those times we had together.

When I got married in September of last year, I went from being 10 minutes away from my mother to over 4 hours away, so I could no longer pop over after work to make some jewelry.  I missed it....ALOT!  So, I decided to purchase some supplies of my own.  And now, here I am designing my own pieces.  It has seriously become a passion of mine.  I spend hours sitting at my dining room table designing pieces for me, for friends, for gifts, and now for you. 

I welcome you all to check out my work at Etsy...http://www.etsy.com/people/acalabro18 or Facebook...https://www.facebook.com/duchessdesignsbyandrea .If you like my work, please like me on Facebook.

I also make custom pieces so if you don't see what you are looking for, let me know and I can design something especially for you.  I also am available to make jewelry for bridal parties, mother of the bride/groom, or the bride herself.  I will work with you to come up with a color scheme and a design that is perfect fit for you. 

Thank you for taking the time to visit my page.  I hope to see you in my jewelry really soon.
