Little Pretty Things

Victoriastrevensmoonnecklace

Over the holidays, I learned about a freshly-minted entrepreneur named Claire Hunsaker.  She launched LittlePretty, her online boutique for independent jewelry design, just before Thanksgiving after leaving a job as a management consultant.   Claire is not a designer herself, but she knew exactly what she wanted from the designers featured in the boutique.  All of the jewelry (priced from $50 to $250) is handmade by the designers  in their own home, store or workshop - each with a unique story or source of inspiration.  Victoria Strevens (Moon necklace $85.00) draws some of the inspiration for her designs from the architecture in New York City.
