Flatwoods Fawn

Flatwoods Fawn magically began in October 2013 on my living room floor. The line is now based in my studio on our family farm. Many of my jewelry pieces are created utilizing vintage or dead stock supplies as a way to use what is already here and would otherwise live unused in the bottom of a jewelry box. My designs are influenced by my Southern Tennessee surroundings and my academic studies, specifically the intersections between mythology and women's studies and how that relates to women in the US South.

"Flatwoods" is the name of the area in Tennessee I grew up in, and my paternal grandfather "PawPaw" named our family's homeplace Flatwoods Farm after the small plot of land in Tennessee that he loved so much. "Fawn" comes from my love of deer which have always been one of my favorite animals.
