Hi, I'm Billie

Before becoming a metalsmith I worked as a surgical technologist for 13 years, a career that required focus, precision, and dependability. That experience shaped the way I work today, and I bring that same care, attention to detail, and steady guidance to both my bench and my workshops.

With guidance from exceptional mentors and a strong self-taught foundation, I've been on my metalsmithing journey for several years. What began as a personal creative practice has grown into a real passion for both making and teaching — especially helping beginners work with metal for the very first time.

Every piece of jewelry at GlassStoneStudio is completely handmade by me. I work primarily in sterling silver and stone, creating handmade pieces with an organic, free-flowing feel. I'm drawn to natural shapes, movement, and texture, allowing the unique character of each stone to guide the design.
