Alicia Moore's Tree of Life

Alicia creates one of a kind wire wrapped stone jewellery. The tree of life pendant is her signature peice. Her love for creating is what motivated her to start her own business. She started making wire jewellery after she graduated from high school. "I have always been an artsy person and once I started wire wrapping I couldn't stop." 

​She has the most fun creating her stone tree of life pendants. "No two are alike and I can twist the branches to reflect a certain message."

When note creating, Alicia works full time as an administrative assistant within the Ontario Public Service. The theme she pursues in her work is nature. "The tree theme and leaf earrings scream tree lover. The tree of life also has a special meaning in almost every culture."

"I mainly work in my house in the living room while watching TV. My art is also very portable so I create during long car rides and art shows. I get my insperation from alot of diffrent things. Usually ideas just xome to me when I am looking outside enjoying the day."

When asked what the most difficult part of the process is, Alicia says, "Trying not to jab yourself or have wire flying everywhere." 

"My favorite most meaningful peice I have ever created is a pink Morganite stone with gold wire tree of life pendant. That was the last peice I made with my beloved cat of 14 years on my lap before she passed. I picked that stone at random not knowing it would be the last one, and its a healing stone for grief." 

"I am always expanding my texhniques and trying to learn new things. Everything I make is one of a kind and made with love."
