Jewelry Making & Small Business Owner
Recollect Modern Vintage is a personal jewelry project inspired by my grandmother Faye, who had an incredible eye for fashion and a deep love of jewelry.
Before she passed away from dementia, we spent time together going through her collection, and she passed down pieces she no longer wore. I began reimagining them with a modern touch, blending memory, style, and storytelling into something new.
Building the Brand
I developed the Recollect Modern Vintage logo and style guide to reflect the brand’s blend of nostalgia and modern elegance, pairing delicate typography with a soft, refined color palette inspired by vintage heirlooms.
Creating the style guide and defining the brand.
Brand Photography
I photographed, edited, and staged all of the jewelry for social media and craft fairs that I have attended.
Pop-Up Shop Styling
I curated, priced, and displayed a collection of handmade pieces for a local craft fair, designing packaging, signage, and a cohesive booth setup to reflect the brand’s vintage-modern aesthetic and create a memorable in-person shopping experience.
