The Artisan Group is proud to announce today’s Artist Spotlight Feature is Kimberly Spector of Nair & Bjorn!
We caught up with Kimberly and asked her a few questions about her cool handcrafted jewelry line, her admirable dedication to no-kill animal shelters, and her experiences so far working with TAG. Here’s what she said:
I try to create unique, fun & stylish pieces for women and girls. I love Swarovski crystals, so I try to use their elements in everything that I make. I love animals too, especially dogs so I wanted to do something to give back. I donate 5% from every purchase to no-kill shelters & 10% of every purchase of my hand-stamped Nair & Bjorn signature collection to no-kill shelters.
What is your favorite product from your shoppe and why?
I really love this new necklace I just made, the I’m So Blue Druzy’n Swarovski Crystal Necklace. I just love the blue colors of the crystals and how they sparkle I love the color of the druzy too. They are my new obsession.
When you’re not handcrafting such interesting Swarovski jewelry, what are your hobbies?
I love music and have played the piano since I was 4 years old and love to sing as well. When I have time, I love to play because it helps me relax. I also have two furbabies so I love spending time with them, too.
What do you like best about The Artisan Group?
The Artisan Group has been so wonderful to be a part of in many ways. It has been so great to be able to participate and have my items at several high profile events and also to be able share and get advice and information from others that have more knowledge and experience in different areas of owning your own business.
