“A light exists in Spring
Not present in the year
at any other period
When March is scarcely here.”
― Emily Dickinson

With new spaces available, we are honored to welcome two new artisans to the Hug Box shop. Both of these wonderful women are from Newnan, Georgia.
Lindsey has over 20 years of experience making jewelry with everything from gemstones, pearls, crystals and fine metals. While she has worked in several jewelry mediums, her favorite is hand stamped and leather. She typically stamps on aluminum because it’s affordable, light weight and won’t tarnish like other metals. Stamping gives her the opportunity to empower other women by the words and phrases that resonate with them.
Amanda Keene is the creator of Bobbins & Brushes. She was born and raised in Newnan, GA. She dedicates her working days as a full time CT tech at a local hospital as she loves to help people.
