About Adorned by Crystal
Adorned by Crystal is the online space where you can find my fun, bold, and unorthodox creations.
I believe in elevating the experience of life by surrounding myself with Functional Beauty - everyday items elevated as one of a kind pieces of art.
​
Part of living intentional lives is making intentional choices about what we bring into our space. When we commit to only adorning ourselves, and our personal spaces, with items we love, we are projecting our true selves to the world. That's when we are interacting with the world on our own terms.
​
Everything here has been created by me with the goal of providing that unique adornment for yourself and your life, or the one of a kind gift for that special someone​.

The Adorned by Crystal Way
Bold
I don't shy away from vibrant colors and daring compositions, creating art that makes a statement. My pieces challenge the ordinary, pushing boundaries and igniting the imagination.
Hand-Crafted
The warmth and soul of hand-crafted artistry is poured into each piece, making it a tangible treasure. This allows you to experience the subtle nuances and details that only hand-crafted art can offer.
Whimsical
Invite a touch of whimsy into your life with art that sparks joy and playful wonder. My art embraces the fantastical and transports you to a world full of imagination. It is inspired by the whimsical and full of playful details and the occasional friendly mushroom.
One of a Kind
Every creation is meticulously crafted, ensuring you own a piece that truly stands alone.
Expect the unexpected - my art is a unique blend of inspiration and technique, resulting in one-of-a-kind treasures.

A Lifelong Journey to Art
Creating art has always been a part of me. For years, I dreamt of making it a full-time pursuit, but I knew I needed time to learn and grow. Now, I'm thrilled to finally be here, sharing my passion with you!
​
Embracing Imperfection
I'm rocking my "no f's 50's" and open about my age because, well, I'm over caring what everyone thinks. My 20s were filled with perfectionism. A therapist challenged me to explore new art forms, even if I wasn't an instant pro. Surprisingly, one of those discoveries, cross-stitch, became a new source of joy.
​
The Joy of Exploration
Fast forward 30 years, and I'm constantly excited about learning new artistic skills and experimenting with different mediums. People often ask if there's anything I can't do. My response? While there's always something new to try, there are also mediums I've explored and am happy to leave to others who enjoy them more.
