About Mikaela’s handmade necklace

 This incredibly special necklace serves as a reminder of my continued creative journey and a reflection of my Godmother. I visited her in NYC for the first time in 2023 and discovered that she, too, was a jewellery maker in her youth. She gifted me her box of beads, pendants, and silver wire, and with them, alongside my own favourite beads. I made this necklace in honour of our shared passion for jewellery making. Every time I wear it, I feel connected to her and am motivated to step into the world as confidently as she does.
