Welcome!
Nice to meet you! I'm Lauren - the one-woman-show hunched over the bench peg happily making your jewelry!
I love cats, screaming at the TV while watching Love Island UK, hoovering the crunchy boi from Compliment's Only, sporting ridiculously OTT nail art in the workplace, and crafting practical, wearable, exuberant jewelry, of course!
A bit more about me...
While Mish Mash was conceived in late 2024, I have been working with precious metals and making jewelry for over 15 years. I have always enjoyed working with my hands and honing skills and techniques that have been around for millennia; I have designed and completed a 2-year independent study in enameling at the Cleveland Institute of Art, a summer intensive at the London Jewelry School in lost-wax casting, and in 2015, I was recognized nationally for my jewelry design with a Scholastic Art Award National Gold Key at Carnegie Hall in New York City.
Mish Mash is the culmination of decades of training, and is a way to permit myself with an avenue to focus on my favorite techniques, highlight my favorite materials to work with, and create joyful pieces I cannot wait to share with others.
I am always open to collaborations and other opportunities, and in general just love hearing from you, so please do not hesitate to reach out either via DM or my contact form!
