Sparrow Studios jewelry is made by Jackie Chambers. With a family tradition of crafting and resourcefulness, and a lifetime of playing with string, Jackie is always looking for new approaches to traditional craft. Jackie lives with her family in St. Louis, where she fills the spare room with yarn, wire, and sparkly bits.

I craft each and every day. You will find things for yourself, your kids, your friends, and your home. Lots of things made from paper, scraps of paper, and recycled items, as I am an avid scrapbooker and teach scrapbook classes at a local scrapbook store. I love to use all mediums in crafting and put them all together. My style is very vintage with an altered twist. I like bright colors and use all of them. Be Creative!!!!
