Hey, I’m Kelly—silversmith, maker, and the hands behind every piece at Kelly Curtis Designs.

I’ve been making jewelry on and off for over 15 years, but in 2019, everything shifted. I was out of work for health reasons, craving something creative again—something that felt like mine. I dabbled in painting, resin, and alcohol inks, just playing around… and then I picked up metal. That was it. I was all in.

There’s something about shaping a piece from raw silver that just clicks for me. The process is grounding, satisfying—and honestly, it makes me feel more like myself. I love that I can build something solid, beautiful, and meant to last—with my own two hands.

As a flight attendant, life moves fast. My studio in Alaska is where I slow down. It’s quiet, it’s real, and it’s where every piece comes to life. No mass production here—just traditional silversmithing, ethically sourced stones, and the kind of craftsmanship you can feel.

People tell me my jewelry is clean, solid, well made. That it holds up. That it feels intentional. That means everything to me. When someone wears a piece I’ve made, it tells me they see something in my work—something that speaks to them. And that’s the biggest honor.

This isn’t just jewelry. It’s connection. It’s meaning. It’s a reminder that we’re all carrying something—and we deserve to carry it with beauty and strength.

Thanks for supporting handmade. It’s personal—and it means more than you know.
