A day in the studio with one of my favorites brands. Intentionally and lovingly created, handmade jewelry by apse.

Looking back at this past year and the projects I’ve gotten to be apart of, and the humans that made them happen. Apse has been one of my favorite brands since I first moved to Bellingham years ago. Hailey and Jarrod have created pieces and a feeling that I am completely in love with. Every aspect of their branding and their vision comes from them with honesty, intentionality and creative spirit. Genuine humans opening themselves up to others and creating beauty for us to incorporate into our everyday.

All of my jewelry is from apse. I was honored and excited to be apart of a special drop and spend a day in their new space for a studio photo shoot. A day in their beautiful space, curated outfits, mood boards and shot lists on the wall that were introduced to us with each handmade custom collection. I felt so inspired this day. The thought and love that goes into every single aspect of this business and these visions overwhelmed me in the best possible way. Playing dress up, dancing to music, tossing candy in the air and being decorated in their creations.

Supporting bussinessses like these support dreams and visions and the hearts of real people who have direct impact on their communities. Every member of this team is golden.

Apse donates 10% of their profits to incredible organizations that work with those suffering from domestic abuse, sex trafficking, and other important issues.

Keeping their production clean and reducing waste is a huge focus of their production , recently shifting to only made to order pieces and creating a swap program to trade in your old pieces to be reused and recreated into a new piece.
