Beads and wire, sold mostly at craft shows
Lynne Martha Victoria Jacobs, a student at Cambrian College, runs LJ Creates, a jewelry business that sells online and at craft and vendor shows.
A couple of beads and some wire. That is what a piece of LJ Creates jewelry starts as, and Lynne Martha Victoria Jacobs says what she loves is the way those two things "combine to make a beautiful piece of jewelry that looks effortless."
She created LJ Creates after discovering she had a talent for jewelry making. "I have always been a crafty person, but jewelry making really stood out to me as something I could create a business with," she says.
“Creativity is the backbone of humanity. It feeds our soul, strengthens our heart, and sharpens our mind.”
