Lea Fairbanks
Lea began creating polymer clay jewelry during the pandemic while working as a mental health therapist. It served as a personal therapy, a way to express, create, and imagine. She was drawn to polymer clay for its versatility and ability to be transformed.
Over time Lea began incorporating other mediums into her jewelry including resin and acrylic paint. Using different techniques, textures, colors, and styles, Lea creates pieces that reflect shifting inspiration. Polymer clay is a lightweight material which makes her pieces wearable and comfortable. Lea believes that jewelry should not just tell a story but also make us feel good when we wear it, she wants those who wear her jewelry to feel confident and bold. Lea creates from home and hopes to inspire other young entrepreneurs and artists
