About
Hi Friends! I'm Summer and I'm so glad you came to my shop for your handmade jewelry needs. Let me introduce myself quickly so you can get shopping. I'm a mom of two, wife of my college sweetheart, and eternal optimist who doesn't take herself too seriously. My family and I live and love in Pittsburgh and though we are transplants here, we love the Steel City.
My love of handmade jewelry started as a child when I would make and sell friendship bracelets in my front yard (my grandfather bought most of them). This transitioned in my adult years to making jewelry for myself and my friends. I was often asked if I sold my jewelry and those questions helped to push my passion for my own business.
When you choose to spend your money at a small business it means the world to me, and I strive to make every moment of your shopping experience with Leo and Lynn Jewelry special.
Now let me share a bit more about our mission and our namesakes!
Leo and Lynn Jewelry was created in 2019 to provide handmade resin, gemstone, and beaded jewelry for real life. Women have many roles in their days and lives and we strive to create jewelry that makes them feel like their best self through all of those roles. Our jewelry transitions to the office, school pick up line, Target runs, special events, date nights, and all the places you need to be in a day.
Leo and Lynn Jewelry uses high quality metals, mostly sterling silver and gold filled metals, to create pieces that are easy to wear, enhance your natural style, and make you smile. Most of our designs are few of a kind or one of a kind. You know that feeling when you put on the perfect accessory for your outfit? Our jewelry is designed to give you that feeling every time you wear it.
Leo, the sweetest dog on earth (we are obviously a bit biased), provides inspiration for Leo and Lynn Jewelry. Leo spent the first 10 years of his life in a puppy mill before being rescued and joining our family. He came to our family as a senior dog, severely underweight, back legs couldn't support him, and no teeth. He could have been extremely mean or even given up on enjoying life but Leo was the exact opposite. He loved every day with an energy that was contagious (although he also loved a long nap). Leo taught our family what love, trust, and forgiveness was all about.
