Annette Vallejos

Hi, my name is Annette and I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico. During the day I work as a Business Development Coordinator for a company where we monitor driving records for companies across the country. I really enjoy what I do and the people I work with, but what I enjoy the most is knowing we just might be able to keep another drunk driver off the road.

After hours, I make barrettes, earrings and pendants out of colored pencils. Who would of thought that colored pencils could be used as jewelry.

All the items on my website are handmade by me. I enjoy working with my hands and particularly working with colored pencils. I love all the colors available and the color combinations. I never know exactly what each piece will look like when I start working. That’s what makes this whole process so much fun. It’s always a surprise.
