Enjoy a visit to Erin's Etsy shop Sunken Garden Beads http://www.etsy.com/shop/sunkengardenbeads where you will find her beautiful jewelry that is amazingly photographed. Erin loves photographing her pieces and explains that "photography is a passion of mine and I've grown to love photographing my jewelry almost as much as making it."

Hello, my name is Erin and I'm a slightly OCD 19-year-old who designs her own jewelry. Some other activities I love are reading scary novels, macro photography, playing video games with my fiance and learning Japanese. I'm taking jewelry design classes at my local community college so I can add new techniques and ideas to my shop often.

My jewelry is inspired by many things, from abstract art to poetry to aquatic plant life. I also like to play around with different combinations of gemstones and wire wrapping designs.

 I create my pieces either in my art studio at school or while sitting crosslegged on my bedroom floor with beads and tools strewn all around me. :)

I'm a detail-oriented person who finds beauty everywhere and in the strangest places. I love jewelry design because it allows me to transfer the secret surprises of nature around me into a permanent object that can be displayed and admired on the body.
