Hi! I'm the Elizabeth behind EBJ. I haven't always made jewelry, but my love for the craft began in 2013 with my first metalsmithing class during my last semester in college. I fell in love. However, my career path wound me through various fields in my 20s - logistics, buying, digital marketing, project management. In 2021, my heart was feeling the creative pull again that I dearly missed. I started taking metalsmithing classes in person and online until I got a job as a jewelry maker at a small business in Cleveland in the fall of 2021. There, I learned and grew in my craft until 2025, when I decided to start my own little business.

Now, I create jewelry for you by hand in my home studio in Peninsula, Ohio. It is just me (with some help from my lovely family) making unique pieces just for you.

Hand fabricated jewelry is not fast, not easy, and not perfect. And I prefer it that way. It requires patience, tough yet gentle hands, mistakes to learn from, and a lot of love. The slow and intentional art of forging, cutting, forming, soldering, filing, sanding, and polishing is rewarding and it can be felt in each piece.

I follow feelings and inspiration over trends. Mass produced jewelry has become disposable, flawless, and unoriginal - what's the fun in that? Jewelry should carry our stories, be worn and loved, get a little dirty, and show off our unique and wild selves. I'd love to make something special for you. :)
