About

Welcome to Full Spiral!

My name is Gypsy Jess and I’m the mischievous pixie behind the jeweller’s bench at Full Spiral.  I work my alchemy on eco friendly recycled metals and natural gemstones, turning them into artisan crafted and uniquely designed adornments for you.

I’m a modern-day gypsy, deeply inspired by the twists and turns of the forest, the sights, sounds, and cultures of my travels, and my own unique swirly visions.  I can’t contain these influences, so I channel them into jewelry creations that express my joy and wonderment at this big crazy beautiful world.

I’ve tried working at jobs that have required me to wear a suit, a dress, a uniform, and a ponytail – but I’m happiest and most creative in pajamas (or perhaps a tutu and jellyfish leggings) with my hair down!  Upon embracing the life of a jewellery artist I’ve left several half-realized careers in the dust – and I don’t miss them one bit.  From the first time I attempted to wrap a cheap plastic bead with craft wire, it felt like coming home.

I still keep that wonky wrapped bead, pinned to my bulletin board, as a reminder of how far I’ve come, and that anything I want is possible!

Full Spiral is a continually growing and evolving collection of organic jewelry and amulets for urban forest dwellers.  If you’ve got a magical streak in you, I’m sure you’ll enjoy looking around here.  And if you don’t find the perfect thing but you’re inspired, I will co-create the jewelry of your dreams with you – just contact me and we’ll chat!

Please send all adoring fan mail to FullSpiral (at) gmail (dot) com, and I will write back and tell you how awesome you are.

I invite you to follow my process, inspiration and news on the Full Spiral blog!
