Denise McLachlan has been making jewelry for over 20 years. She started because she couldn’t find the style of jewelry that she wanted in the stores. It was also a fun activity that she could do with her friends. Her and her friends would all get together after work to make jewelry and teach each other new techniques. Although she enjoys a variety of crafts, jewelry is her passion.
People ask Denise how she got started selling jewelry. When she saw a segment on Martha Stewart Living about Etsy she decided to start selling on there and the rest is history. Her hope is one day having her own brick and mortar shop where she can meet her clients in person.
Denise lives in New Jersey, when she isn’t writing or making jewelry she mentors other entrepreneurs who also sell on Etsy. She enjoys traveling, reading and making cards and scrapbooking.
