Inspired by nostalgia, memory and the joy of self expression.

Hey Hello!

If you’re drawn to jewelry that feels personal and lasting, you’re in the right place.
Souvenir handmade is jewelry, built around memory, nostalgia, and personal meaning. 

I make pieces that feel collected rather than consumed, jewelry meant to be worn often, lived with, and kept for years, not just a moment in time.

Influenced by vintage objects, natural forms, and historical references, and  filtered through a modern, pared-back approach. I’m drawn to designs that feel familiar, leaving room for the wearer to bring their own story to the piece.

Within the collections you will find work made with recycled sterling silver, bronze, semi-precious stones, and occasionally repurposed vintage elements. 

Every piece I make is intended to become part of your everyday. Something worn into routine, gathered into a personal collection, and eventually passed along. Jewelry not just for how it looks, but for how it’s held, remembered, and kept.

About me as an artist:
I’ve been making jewelry for over 16 years and am largely self-taught as a silversmith. Each piece is hand fabricated or created using lost wax casting, then carefully finished by me in my Winnipeg studio. Casting is done locally, and I’m in the process of developing my own in-house casting practice.

Craftsmanship and material choice are central to how I work. I’m interested in durability, longevity, and pieces that age well with wear. I make things slowly, choosing techniques that allow the jewelry to feel solid, considered, and lasting.

Over the years, my work has been carried by independent shops across Canada and shown at juried markets and pop-ups. In 2024, I deepened my practice through advanced study in lost wax casting at Penland School of Craft in North Carolina, and I’m currently continuing my training through a one-year diploma in silversmithing.

When I’m not making jewelry, you can find me cozy at home with my cat Moo and my partner. I love to thrift, travel, sing, make good food and most recently make miniatures just for fun.

I work in a sunny bright spot in an old stationary warehouse, in Winnipeg’s historic exchange district.

Thanks for being here and having an interest in what I do!
