We asked past client, Tara, our 5 questions about her custom turquoise necklace!

What is your MeritMade story?
My mom and I want on a trip to Utah and Arizona. The experience was wonderful and she came back with a beautiful piece of turquoise. However, she dropped it and the drilled stone broke near the hole. Knowing Kelly's amazing skills, I asked her for a customized setting for the stone. And I surprised my mom on Christmas day.

Why did you choose to work with MeritMade?
We've known each other since college. Watching Kelly develop as an artist and grow into a professional local maker is the reason I chose to work with her. Her genuine interest in her craft alongside her great communication skills makes the process not only easy, but intimate.

How does working with MeritMade compare to buying jewelry in the past?
Knowing how passionate she is with her craft as well as knowledgeable makes buying jewelry from MeritMade a lifetime experience. You can't get that from just anyone.

If you could get another piece of MeritMade jewelry for free, what would you want?
Probably something wonderful from her new collection.

What is the best movie quote ever, and what movie is it from?
"Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol' storm right square in the eye and he says, 'Give me your best shot, pal. I can take it.'" -Big Trouble in Little China

Anything else you would like to add?
Keep on keepin on lady. Cheers. Xo.
