MADELena and JACKSon are not only my children but are also the source of the name of the business that has grown as they have over the past few years.  Madeljacks began back in 2005 as I began to create lampwork beaded jewelry in my home studio and then began to experiment with Precious Metal Clay (PMC) and incorporate the two with sterling silver components.    In 2007, Madeljacks expanded to include embroidery items for children as well as many household items.  When I’m not sewing or playing with clay or fire, I’m a mom to Jackson (age 7) and Mae (age 5) and wife to Jeff, my husband of 13 years.
