Designs by Kalyn

When my oldest was only eight years old, she designed her first line of jewelry and branded it Ivie Market. She sold her pieces alongside mine and loved that women were drawn to her work. Over the years, she has produced amazing pieces of art from pottery to charcoal to watercolor.
I am so pleased that she has taken an interest in GDO again, and this Summer began accompanying me to The Market and other events. She enjoys learning the business side of this operation as much as she enjoys creating and selling her own designs. Her silk chord necklaces have nearly sold out and, she received her first wholesale order from a local boutique where we live. Next week I'm taking her with me to NYC on a buying trip. She's as excited as I am to get inspired.
