Wearing Dragonfly Diva creations, I feel connected to my fierce feminine self. To me, feminine means strong and confident. It’s sexy, with an independent attitude of someone who can DO ANYTHING and does it with style and grace.”

A note from the Creator

My Roots

Jewelry is one of my passions. I look forward to the design and creation of it every day! I grew up in Northern California, amid the wild rivers and ancient redwood trees, on the glorious Pacific Ocean. I started making jewelry as a child, much of which can still be found in my mother’s jewelry box! When I was twelve I began learning blacksmithing with my dad. I found something highly satisfying about pounding red hot metal. Designing jewelry I get to utilize the techniques I learned with my dad; just with a tiny hammer and anvil!

My Inspiration

A huge inspiration for my jewelry comes from the phenomenal women in my life. I am continually amazed by the sexiness, power, grace and strength of the female spirit within them. When that spirit comes out I see women transform. They become stunningly beautiful; their smiles light up the room and uplift those around them. I call this the inner diva. I strive to make my jewelry spark a bit of it in every woman who wears it, reminding them how strong, sexy and graceful they are. I believe life should be lived to the fullest joy possible in each moment, and I try to do my best at it each day! Find your inner beauty and wear it for the world to see.

“I love them, they can dress up a ratty old t-shirt and make people start dressing like you cause it’s trendy:). I am drawn to Dragonfly Diva jewelry because its uniqueness, even if there are similar styles being sold elsewhere, you can tell the love and commitment put into each and every piece. I feel good about giving DD jewelry as gifts because I know a little piece of the loving energy travels with them onto the person receiving it. I keep getting new designs cause it’s so versatile and made to order and has always come though with special orders. Plus....I feel pretty whenever I wear Dragonfly Diva. Mahalo for your spirited energy and love you put into each piece of DD jewelry cause everyone could use a little more love! Muah!”

I can honestly say that I have received more compliments on my sea glass and shell hoop earrings (so fittingly named: The Krista Collection) than on anything, ever!
