She Designs Jewelry on Arfire.com

Sheila Hendricks, of Westport IN, is the "She" behind She Designs Jewelry on Artfire.com.  She's the youngest of 3 kids and was nicknames She, when her cousins shortened Sheila.  That's where she came up with her business name, which I think is pretty cool.  It's her way of honoring her family, who she loves and adores.  Sheila has been married to her high school sweetheart for 20 years now.  She admits to being addicted to beads, which isn't really a bad thing, in my opinion.  Sheila began designing jewelry in the summer of 2007 and it quickly became a passion.  Her style is a bit eclectic, which makes her work unique and interesting.  She joined Artfire 12-25-08 and is quite willing to create special orders.  You can see all of her work at SheDesignsJewelry.artfire.com, and read her blog at SheDesignsJewelry.blogspot.com. Below are a few of my favorites from her studio.
