Help a handmade jewelry designer fund her new collection and save her business.
One Star Designs is a one woman home-run jewelry company by me, Jennifer Julian. We make lovely retro inspired jewelry designs for all price-points and walks of life.
We were getting ready to launch a new collection of Victorian and Retro Hollywood inspired when we hit very dire straits.
Long story short: My husband lost his job and I am medically disabled. I desperately want to keep my jewelry business afloat and make this new collection, so I am turning to kickstarter to help.

The new collection will be inspired by hope even in times of despair. Funds raised will help me to produce the collection, launch my new jewelry website to showcase the collection, and keep food in my tummy while I work on this collection. My company is our sole source of income right now, so there is a lot riding on this collection. Any help that anyone will give me to help launch it would be very appreciated. I believe in tough times small businesses can still succeed. I am offering rewards for backers that consist of custom jewelry made by me.
ALL backer rewards will be entirely custom made, and backers can choose colors and some other design elements when selecting their rewards. This is part of how One Star Designs works, I make what YOU want to wear.
I really appreciate this opportunity to make more sparklies for you. Thank you!
