About handmade jewelry designer Yulia Yeshanov

My name is Yulia.  I'm a nurse and I love my job.  But throughout my life I loved crafts. I used to sew, knit, embroider. 

 

My life changed dramatically, my job changed, but my love for making beautiful things remained. 

 

A few years ago I purchased a beautiful gemstone and wanted to make a pendant out of it.  I started to look through the Internet for guidance on how to do this.  I bought tools.  And the journey started.  After drilling holes in stones, I learned to work with wire.  Then - beading, weaving, leather work.  And quite by chance, I came across a video on YouTube how to make a pendant from polymer clay. This was a love from the first glance.  Polymer clay is an amazing and versatile material that opens up enormous perspectives for creativity.  Its possibilities are endless.  I try to learn and improve all the time, in order to create the most professional work.  I participate in international seminars and learn from masters.  In addition to the pleasure to see the results of my work, the process of work itself brings great benefits. 

 

Working as a nurse in intensive care means to work in constant stressogenic environment.  So jewelry making is my psychotherapy and relaxation.  So I reach two goals: I maintain my nervous system in balance and bring beauty into the world. 

 

Finally: I would like to see happy, healthy people around me who can enjoy the results of my work!
