✨ A fresh look for a new chapter.
Every 5–6 years, my booth gets a refresh. My jewelry evolves, my colors shift, and eventually the old setup just stops feeling like “me.” So it’s time for another redesign — slow, steady, and very handmade, just like everything else I do.
Most people don’t realize it, but artists build our entire booth from scratch inside an empty square at each fair. We bring everything: pipe and drape, lighting, tables, displays — and of course, all the work we make. It’s a lot, but it’s also part of the joy.

🌈 Updating One Piece at a Time
A full makeover all at once sounds dreamy, but redesigning (and making!) takes time and budget. So I do it in phases.
-
Last year: new banners + curtains (burgundy → navy)
-
This year: new tables + table covers
-
Next year: small display tweaks
A slow evolution keeps the booth aligned with the jewelry I’m creating now — and I genuinely enjoy the process.
🛠️ Built, Modified, Recycled — My Way
Everything has to fit into my little car, and I’m not a very big person, so I design my booth to be lightweight and manageable.
I sew my own curtains. I cut and reconnect pieces into collapsible displays. I re‑engineer tables and panels so they’re modular, pack flat, and easy to set up alone.
There’s something deeply satisfying about solving these little puzzles. It makes the booth feel like part of the whole experience — a space I belong to. People often tell me “you and your jewelry match your booth,” and I take that as the highest compliment.
🚚 Logistics Shape Everything
I’m doing more outdoor shows, which means faster setup, faster breakdown, and better windproofing. Most shows are drivable (sometimes up to 8 hours), but a few require me to fly, so I pre‑ship my booth and keep everything compact and durable.
This redesign focuses on:
-
lighter but sturdier tables
-
wind‑friendly layouts
-
displays that pack flat
-
components that assemble quickly
-
pieces that ship without stress
It’s a puzzle — and I secretly love the puzzle.
💛 Growing With the Work
After 20+ years of shows, I’ve learned that my booth is an extension of my studio — and my artwork. It deserves to grow and shift just as much as the jewelry does.
I can’t wait to share the new look at my next show. Come say hi and tell me what you think.
Here are some pics from the past booths ... they have evolved quite a bit!
