I'm Liz, one of the owners of Lucky Lizard. And yes, the name came from being called Lizard all my life. I used to teach Middle School Spanish, until this September, when my mischeivous little monkeys, Jonah and Owen, were born. Now, I'm a work-at-home mom, and Jonah is actually on my lap 'helping' me write this entry!
I started making jewelry when I was in high school, and it soon blossomed into a full-time obsession. In college, I played around with starting a business out of it, but there just never seemed to be time (because, you know, I have SO much free time now....). I met Martha in my last year of college, and we have been fast friends ever since. We directed a summer camp together, worked at a test prep company together, and now we do jewelry together. I love it, and it allows me to work from home, which will be great when my husband goes to medical school.

I think my favorite thing about the jewelry business, besides making the jewelry, is doing home parties. It's so nice to meet new people and spend some time chatting and trying on fabulous jewels!
Here I am setting a diamond in this pendant in the studio.

Hey Liz and Martha, I'm checking out your blog for the first time. Super cool!!! Liz, I had no idea that you had been making jewelry since you were in high school - I had no idea! I'm also super excited that you will both be back at the Dress for Success event this year - thanks for supporting us!!!
