Cindy especially likes to use beautiful, highly figured local woods like lilac wood, box elder and cherry burl or recycled/reclaimed woods passed on from other woodworkers. Cindy W**d, DBA Jewelwood of Vermont, is a purveyor of a small wooden jewelry studio in Enosburg Falls, Vermont. W**d began her woodworking career making softwood children toys at the Montgomery Schoolhouse in the early seventies. In 1987, after many years of creating a variety of wooden craft projects, and helping her husband in his wooden sash windows and door business, she started making jewelry full time. W**d strives to bring the inherent natural beauty of native and exotic hardwoods alive in each piece she fabricates. She designs all of her own pieces and especially enjoys using recycled woods such as woodworkers’ cast offs and pieces too small for their projects. She accents her high quality, unique creations with semi-precious stones, sterling silver, copper, brass and gold-filled embellishments. Her work, including earrings, barrettes, pins, necklaces, and an assortment of men’s bolo ties, tie clip and tacks, sells nationwide at fine gift shops and galleries.
