Coffee Bean Jewelry


I've finally set my mind to it, and now I'm starting a business based on coffee bean jewelry. I wanted to find something unique, something new and exciting. What's more exciting than coffee?! And coffee bean jewelry...well that is even more exciting!
I had been searching for something similar but have yet to find actual coffee bean jewelry that is available or something that people would wear. I hope this will be both! I love coffee (who doesn't) and wanted to make it into something wearable. It's all naturally based and hopefully economical.
I've made just a few pieces to start with. I'm going to try and sell them this weekend at the local farmers market and I hope by posting this online it will cause more stir and more people will hear about this new unique form of jewelry. Eventually I want to create a web based business, but starting out smaller is best for right now.
In making them it requires time, focus and some skill. I use a small hand drill and then coat them with a clear varnish, and go from there. It is a bit time consuming but very enjoyable and relaxing.
These first pieces I made using coffee beans as the focal point and using other stones as accents. I've incorporated Copper, Tree Agate, Poppy Jasper, Leopard Skin Jasper, Turquoise, and little wood beads. As I've said I wanted to make an affordable but also a naturally based type of jewelry. In the next few days and week I will be working on more and more pieces and hopefully adding to my little business.
If you have any questions or would like to purchase any of the pieces I have pictured please contact me at aubreybrown22@gmail.com. Hopefully in a few weeks I will have a working website to showcase more items!
Thank you all for checking this out and for your support!
