lamp·work·ing (lămp'wûr'kĭng)
n.

When people ask me what I do for a living, I smile and say, I play with fire!

Usually a puzzled look follows with questions of my juggling abilities.

No, I'm not a circus performer, I'm a lampwork jewelry artist.

All my life I've been searching for that one thing that made me smile from the inside out, and now I've found it.

Working with glass is an amazing mind trip. No two pieces are ever alike.

Somedays I decide how the piece will turn out, but most days it is the glass that ultimately decides its form.

 

How we became ZeZu & Company

For years I designed jewelry part-time, but was always too busy with my " real job" to put my whole heart, time and investments into it.

In 2005 I was graced with a daughter, Zoe Taylor ( ZeZu), and from that moment my life changed. I left my job became a full-time mom & a full-time designer. No longer working for others I could devote my time and passion to my daughter and designing. Having Zoe gave me a life I'd always dreamed of, I felt the least I could do was name my company after her!
