EXPRESSIONS OF BEAUTY: By Melissa Nichols
E
lizabeth Perry was inspired to begin creating jewelry from a collection of gems and heritage pieces given to her by her grandmother. Through repurposing and reimagining, she was able to craft many unique and updated styles. Surrounded by women entrepreneurs in her family, who saw her eye for design, Elizabeth was encouraged to continue pursuing this creative interest. Over the following years, time spent working on their ventures helped her develop the proper street smarts and business savvy that proved invaluable when she later launched her own business. Before Elizabeth turned making jewelry into a business however, the passion was simply a hobby. Friends and family, knowing of her gift to make beautiful things, would often ask her to create pieces for various occasions. Each request would be answered by a handcrafted piece suiting the receiver’s personality and presented adorned with thoughtful and creative wrapping. After enough requests were filled, it simply became natural to take the next step with the creation of Elizabeth Perry Collections. A few years later, each piece Elizabeth produces is still designed, handcrafted and presented to her clients with passion and purpose. Her mission is to build the line into a brand of adornments that will draw out the confidence and creativity of the woman wearing these designs.
