About

Hi, I’m Shelley.

I’m the hands, heart, and sarcastic sense of humor behind Creations by Shelley.

I make handmade jewelry, accessories and gifts right here in the Sierra foothills of North Fork, California — a little mountain town that’s full of character (and characters 😏).

How it started

Jewelry-making began as a creative outlet and quickly turned into my happy place. There’s something about shaping wire, setting stones, and watching an idea turn into something beautiful you can actually wear that never gets old.

Over time, I added other handmade goodies too, because I can never leave well enough alone — if it sparkles, makes people laugh, or would look great at a craft fair, I probably want to make it.

What you’ll find here

• Small-batch earrings, necklaces, and a variety of other handmade accessories — no two batches are exactly alike.

• Playful, sometimes sarcastic designs — because life’s too short for boring jewelry.

• Handmade gifts under $30 — because handmade doesn’t have to mean expensive.

Every piece is made with care, a touch of sass, and meant to bring a little joy (or at least a chuckle).

Why I sell here

I’ve been doing craft fairs and vendor shows for years, but I wanted a way for friends, family, and new faces to shop anytime. This online shop helps me share my creations beyond the craft table — and yes, every order also helps me tackle my next big goal (like fixing my car 🚗💨).

Thanks for being here

When you buy handmade, you’re not just getting jewelry — you’re supporting a small business, a dream, and usually a very grateful woman doing a happy dance in her trailer workshop. 💃✨

So poke around, find something you love, and know that it was made with heart (and maybe a little sarcasm).
