Sandi Volpe is the mother of 3 energetic boys and a jewelry artist. Sandi has always enjoyed creating things with her hands. Growing up she would re-string her mother’s pieces and make matching earrings using her father’s tools. Today many of the tools she works with forming metal are from her Dad’s workshop.
Sandi’s work is influenced by her childhood spent learning many crafts from grandparents and aunts as well as growing up at “the shore” on New Jersey’s Atlantic coast. Her unique line of jewelry comes from her desire to create beautiful and often multi-functional pieces. Learn more about Sandi and her jewelry by visiting her blog and etsy shop.













To me, art has been the unexpected discovery of finding my passion. When I finally put paint onto paper, my heart and life exploded with a joy I hadn’t known before.
