About

Hello I’m Christie. I have Native American heritage from two different tribes (Cherokee and Choctaw) and I live with my husband of 18 years now in Roanoke, Texas. I originally started my business in the Southern California mountains of San Bernardino in a city called Big Bear. That’s where my store gets its name. But after my house burned down in a wild fire we left and came here to Texas. I have always been an artist since a very early age. I love to work with all kinds of jewelry styles, especially traditional styles that i’ve noticed you don’t really see anymore. I enjoy metalsmithing and lapidary arts where i get to find hidden treasures in rocks and try to bring it all together into one of a kind art pieces for you. I really hope you enjoy my artwork!
