Meet Mandy!

Mandy started working at The Locket Sisters about four years ago when my sister and I had to do some international traveling to find answers to some questions that our local mentors and colleagues couldn't provide. I remember we gave her a whole setup for getting photos inside lockets with our process from her home (which is hilarious to think about now). Mandy has been here part-time since n…

I love beauty. I love it for the sake of itself, I love it for other people, I love it for myself, I love it through all the senses.  Candles that subtly resemble a spa, a tidy home that makes it easy to find your keys, background music that sets a mood, the kind where you don't notice it until you you realize that you're loving the vibe of a place and then connect that someone intentionally…

"In her honor, my husband takes many walks with a weighted backpack"

"My husband tragically lost his mother in the Champlain Towers last summer. The picture I chose is of my husband as a teen with his mom. She loved to walk and in more recent years had trained for and hiked El Camino de Santiago in Spain. In her honor, my husband takes many walks with a weighted backpack. It has helped him process and grieve his loss. I want to gift him this lapel so he can ca…
