Handmade jewelry is my weakness. I’m picky when it comes to buying jewelry but when it’s been thoughtfully crafted by hand, I’m sold. There are so many talented creative people that have the patience to craft beautiful jewelry. Below 14th Designs offers some of the most beautiful pieces of jewelry I’ve seen.
I received a pair of Brass Bowl Earrings and I love them. I have an obsession with metal work, there is something so beautiful about the raw beauty of metal. I’m typically drawn to silver but I really love these brass earrings, they are quickly becoming my favorite earrings.
I have been operating out of my workspace over my garage since 2005.
Tell readers more about your business:
Five years ago after a very stressful day as a brand new mom I went by a local craft store for a little project to work on. I picked up a beading kit. Jewelry design quickly became an obsession and Below 14th Designs was born. I am very inspired by things I find in nature and try to incorporate these ideas into my designs. All of pieces are either one of a kind or limited run.

I could eat at La Cocina’s Mexican restaurant every night. I love me some fresh guac!

This morning I took the boys to Sesame Street Live at the PNC Arena in Raleigh. We had a great time dancing along with our favorite Sesame Street characters like Elmo, Grover, Cookie Monster and Big Bird. The Let’s Dance show gave kids and their parents the opportunity to dance throughout the show encouraging everyone…
I love it when my boys smile, but nothing is better than the smile on their face after they haven’t been feeling well. Recently, Jude had surgery and it was so sad to see him there in the hospital. It was so sad to see him lying there, so little and helpless. I just wanted…

Swaddle Designs has teamed up with Angry Bird to create an absolutely adorable line of Angry Bird baby products. Jude loves playing Angry Birds (or Birds as he calls it) on Dada’s phone so when he was the Swaddle Designs Angry Birds onesie he was super excited. He was a little bummed to learn they…
It’s no secret that these are hard times and families are pinching every penny they have. In our home we’ve tried several methods of tracking and planning our finances but they all seem to fall short in the end. That is why I was super excited to give Quicken a try. I’ve heard so many…
