Tree Jewelry Garden Art

I began making Tree Jewelry by accident. Literally. I had an accident back in 2011, and broke both of my heels at the same time. I was so frustrated, it was so hard to not be able to walk, do my normal things, live my normal life. At the time my kids were 10, 8, and 8. One day while trying to maneuver with a casted foot & crutches and not stepping down on the other foot, I dropped a mirror and it broke up in large pieces, and when I looked at the glass all over the floor ... I had an inspiration!! I fiddled around and came up with the very first rough string of tree jewelry. And I sold it!! I kept trying to upgrade and make it prettier, and eventually enlisted my husband to cut all the mirror for me. Bless his heart, to this day he still hand cuts every last piece of mirror! He estimates it to be over 12,000 individual tiles a month!!
