Meet Joelle Poulos, owner of Folksy shop
Joelleabelle.
Joelle recently opened her shop selling kitsch, retro and kooky jewellery. I found those words in her keyword list and they describe her style perfectly!
How would you describe the jewellery you make?I would describe my Jewellery as: 'Quirky Handmade Jewellery'
You Colour My World Earrings
How long have you been making jewellery?Not long at all! I started selling it to my friends little over 2 months ago.
What made you start?My friend sent me a link to a site selling charms, this made me think about making some extra money selling jewellery. This then expanded to selling on my website!
P.S. I Love You Necklace
Have you taken any jewellery-making classes or are you self-taught?I have never taken jewellery making classes, I am completely self taught!
What made you decide to make your style of jewellery rather than the more classic type?My style of jewellery is based on something I would like and buy! I do think about the fact that 'It's not what you want, its what other people want' but I have a very quirky sense of fashion (and jewellery!) and this is what came out of it!
Where do you buy your jewellery-making supplies? Online or locally?I buy my supplies all online.
Chocaholic Pendants
Where do you sell your jewellery? Is it just online or do you ever do craft fairs, sell locally? I sell my jewellery online at
Joelleabelle and am yet to do a craft fair and I haven't yet found a local one, although I would love to do one in the future.
Do you blog?I do, and love it! You can find my blog
