All About MeWhat everyone should know about me
I am obsessed with fashion! Specifically modern Gothic style blended with historical costume (Victorian, Civil War, 1920's flapper). I prefer classic elegance over trendy 'shabby chic', so you'll look great both at the office AND the opera!

Business InformationHistory/background
Art of Adornment is a one-woman operation (me!). 90% of the items in my store are hand crafted by me, and I do all my own packaging, promotion, accounting, marketing, shipping, graphic design and web design. Doing all this work myself means I am able to keep my prices affordable (no employees or middlemen to pay, etc.), despite my items being limited edition and one-of-a-kind designer accessories. I also believe in top-notch customer service, and will always try to work with you if you are not satisfied with your items.
