How would you say your creative passion affects your business?

  • "My love of the arts has a wide range of effects on my business. I enjoy thinking of different things I can make with the same pieces of flatware."

  • "When people view my most recent creations and then give me positive feedback, that's always really fantastic. But because it's such a basic thing, I have to constantly remind myself to stay true to my roots and continue to offer the same product that I did when I first started and that in which is still the most popular purchased thing is the spoon ring."

What's your favorite piece that you've made, and why?

  • "Over the course of my four years of creation, the ring I crafted for my roommate Dee has undoubtedly become one of my favorites."

  • "She has accompanied me on my All Things Rings quest from the beginning. In the first year of making the rings, I shared a picture of a specific spoon I had discovered at a thrift store. She claimed the object right away. I was astounded to find, throughout the product's creation, how simple it was to bend and shape to her dimensions."

  • "I made the decision to hunt up additional information about the spoon online as soon as the ring was finished. Naturally, I should not have made it. The spoon was named "Valencia" and was from 1965. The spoon cost more than $100 at retail. I'm grateful that my roommate still has it, and I can look back on that as one big fortunate error. "

What's the most meaningful piece that you've done?

  • "One of the most poignant things I have ever completed was contacted by a high school student about a concept. I was very taken aback by this concept because I had the privilege of creating over 500 rings for people in Arizona."

  • "This was not your normal spoon ring. I was creating personalized stamped rings at the time. The aluminum metal used to make these rings is easily pliable and customizable. Anyway, a young student from my high school died in a serious vehicle accident. So I made the J ring as a way to honor him. This ring had the letter "j" with a halo above it. I will always make rings like this one for other people, and Jayson's legacy will endure."

What do you think is the most important piece of the puzzle when it comes to running All Things Rings?

  • "The most important piece of the puzzle when it comes to running all things ringss is that, when it comes to to myself is to always to sell my product with intent. I always want individuals to love what they are getting and to feel loved when having the conversation. My number one philosophy if it makes you feel beautiful BUY IT!"
