Welcome to Alicia Coats Jewelry!
I have always had a love for jewelry. When I was a child, my dad tells me that I would wear numerous (too big for me) bracelets on my arms & I'd have to walk around holding my arms up just to keep them from falling off. If I could find a picture, I'd post it! I went through several different jewelry phases throughout my youth. At one point I was into wearing a ring on every finger, went back to wearing several bracelets at once (but these fit so I didn't have to keep my hands up) and then there was a time when I wore hoop earrings so large they literally fit around my neck! I've toned it down a bit since then, but I still love large earrings, chunky bracelets, & "gawdy" rings (as my husband likes to call them)!
I have always been creative in one form or another. I played piano as a child, took orchestra in junior high and still have paintings that I did in my 20's hanging on my walls. I have a journal full of poetry that I wrote in my teens & early 20's, but it wasn't until around 2007 that I started making jewelry. I started out making it for myself, then I started to make pieces for friends and family as gifts. I didn't start selling my pieces until 2009.
All pieces are hand-crafted, by me, from my home in Raleigh, NC.

Along with designing jewelry, I work a full time job, am a wife & am happily owned by 8 fur kids (2 Chihuahuas - Peyton & Cody) & 6 cats (Callie & Spencer - "mine" & Jack, Hailey, Mia , Oliver - fosters). I work with Marley's Cat Tales (http://www.marleyscattales.org) as a foster home as room & sanity permits.
