Amanda made me a fantastic necklace on short notice. She had an impressive selection of beads, wire, and hardware in stock and took my pendant and did great work. I had two previous necklaces made in New York that were inferior to her work. And, she did so at an honest price. Also, the antiques in her shop(and particularly the antique jewelry) are quite nice and reasonably priced. My wife bought a nice pendant that we are proud of. Bottom line, Amanda has heart and soul.
