~What Makes Stoney Creek Jewelry Different~
Uniquely Made • Naturally Grounded • Sustainably Beautiful
Michigan native stones and semi-precious gems are infused into wearable art, providing unique jewelry for busy boho, career women who want to express themselves with fashion-forward, handmade, one-of-a-kind jewelry that grounds them in their powerful sense of style.
Uniquely Made • Naturally Grounded • Sustainably Beautiful
At Stoney Creek Jewelry, each piece tells a story — one of Michigan’s natural beauty, intentional design, and sustainable love. My handmade jewelry is infused with Michigan native stones like Petoskey stones (our state stone!), and upcycled treasures like Leland Blues, and Michigan beach glass — treasures handpicked during family shoreline adventures. These stones, shaped by nature and polished by hand, become part of something greater: wearable art that connects busy, earth-loving, career-minded women to their roots and radiance.
I believe fashion should empower and protect what we love. That’s why I prioritize:
Recycled .925 sterling silver when available
Upcycled & vintage finds given new life as boho statement pieces
Thoughtfully selected healing crystals and stones for their colors, energy, and meaning
USA-based and small business suppliers to support local economies and keep things close to home
Eco-friendly packaging that’s recyclable or reusable
From hand-polishing Michigan stones to crafting one-of-a-kind customs, everything I create is made with care and intention. Whether you're vibing with your beachy spirit, anchoring a special memory, or harnessing the healing power of stones, no two pieces — or people — are ever the same.
When we're out adventuring, I occasionally gift a piece of handmade jewelry to an unsuspecting soul. I believe small acts of kindness ripple out like waves.
At SCJ, I’m not just making jewelry — I’m nurturing connection, sparking joy, and doing my part to be a good steward of the Michigan shoreline.
Always let your heart shine bright! I appreciate you!

Hey there, beach-loving soul!
Do you ever find yourself wandering the shoreline, getting lost in the sound of the waves and the warm feel of the sun on your skin? Maybe you can’t resist picking up that smooth beach glass or hunting for that perfectly patterned Petoskey stone. Yeah… same here!
I’m Shawna — jewelry artist, proud Michigan rock-hunter, and owner of Stoney Creek Jewelry, LLC. When I’m not creating Michigan inspired jewelry, vintage/upcycled finds in sterling silver, you’ll catch me cheering on my youngest daughter as she pitches for her high school & travel softball team — and yep, I’m her catcher when practicing too, full catcher's gear required!
My love for handmade jewelry goes way beyond sparkle. I believe every piece we wear should hold meaning — a memory, a moment, a vibe. Like the sterling silver labradorite pendant I wore the day my daughter pitched her first no-hitter (13 strikeouts, total boss moment!). That pendant has become our lucky charm, and I’ve worn it to every game since. It's a reminder of pride, joy, and that unstoppable mama-daughter bond!
That’s the magic I try to bring to each piece I create — jewelry that’s not only beautiful but deeply personal. Whether it’s crafted from Michigan beach finds like Leland Blues or upcycled vintage treasures, every design is made to connect you to your story, your roots, and your light.
As a busy mom of three, I get the chaos. Life’s wild — your jewelry shouldn’t be. That’s why I design handmade, one-of-a-kind boho pieces that feel effortless, earthy, and totally you. Every stone, upcycled find, or semi-precious gem is chosen with intention, and every piece is created with love (and maybe a beachy breeze in the background ).
And because I believe in spreading good vibes, one of my favorite things is surprising customers or strangers with a little extra joy — a free pair of earrings, a pendant, or even my homemade natural soap. Check out the pure sunshine on Cindy’s face over on my Facebook page when I surprised her with beach glass earrings at work for her birthday! Moments like that? Pure gold!

Sustainability
1. Upcycling Vintage Materials
We breathe new life into vintage and pre-loved items, transforming them into modern, one-of-a-kind handmade jewelry pieces. By reusing materials and recycled silver when we can, we reduce waste and preserve the unique charm of vintage craftsmanship.
2. Incorporating Michigan Native Stones
By using locally sourced stones, and items that are considered upcycled, like beach glass, Leland blues, and Fordite we reduce the carbon footprint and honor the natural beauty of our home state.
3. Using Locally Sourced Stones Our semi-precious stones are carefully selected from local suppliers right here in the USA. This helps support other small businesses just like this one.
4. Handcrafted Creations Every piece is designed and made by hand, which minimizes the energy consumption typically associated with mass production.
5. Minimalist and Eco-Friendly Packaging We do our best to use recyclable, and reusable packaging to ensure that our practices align with our love for the planet.
6. Commitment to Longevity Our designs are made to last, encouraging thoughtful consumption and discouraging the fast-fashion mentality.
7. Promoting a Culture of Sustainability By sharing our values and practices, we inspire our community to make mindful choices and connect with the earth through wearable art.
8. Protecting the Natural Beauty of Our Environment As we explore Michigan’s shorelines and waterways in search of native stones, we take time to care for the land & water by collecting and disposing of litter, ensuring our precious landscapes and shorelines remain pristine. We also upcycle beach glass and by-products from old iron mills, such as Leland Blues, giving new life to materials that might otherwise be discarded. If we ALL do a little, it leads to alot!
Above and Beyond Quality
Looking for jewelry that’s not only beautiful but built to last?
At Stoney Creek Jewelry, quality is never an afterthought — it's woven into every single piece.
Each design starts with a Michigan adventure. My family and I hand-pick stones like Petoskey, and upcycle Leland Blues, and beach glass right from the shores of Michigan waters. From there, I carefully sand and polish each one by hand, revealing their natural beauty before weaving them into wearable art.
Crystals and semi-precious gems are chosen intuitively for color, and rarity — and when possible, I use recycled sterling silver and upcycle vintage jewelry to reduce waste and add a touch of soulful history to my handmade jewelry.
My signature wire-weaved pendants and necklaces are more than just jewelry — they’re one-of-a-kind, handcrafted to resonate with their wearer through their unique characteristics, and artistic design.
Whenever I can, I support fellow small businesses in the U.S., because community and conscious craftsmanship matter.
Cultivating Relationships
There’s nothing better than when someone messages me saying, “I can’t wait to see what you’ve been working on!” or "This is the perfect gift!"
That energy? I live for it.
At Stoney Creek Jewelry, it’s not just about making pretty handmade jewelry— it’s about creating jewelry that helps you feel grounded in who you are, connected to your inner sense of style, and proud of your one-of-a-kind spirit.
Each design is as unique and distinctive as the person who wears it — that’s you!
This isn’t just a business — it’s a heart-led journey of Michigan inspired jewelry, vintage/upcycled finds and a lot of creativitytransforming it into something new. Where jewelry is made and friendships are born.
Jewelry Care
It is recommended that you:
- Store your piece in a sealable air-tight reusable & recyclable plastic bag with the anti-tarnish strip included with your purchase free of charge. This helps to slow down any naturally occurring tarnish.
- Choose a cool dry area to store your piece.
- Humidity, water exposure, or chemical reactions such as perfume or lotions that you use can speed up tarnishing and/or have an adverse reaction to any adhesives used.
- Use a polishing cloth to shine it back to new if you see visible tarnish. A small polishing cloth will be provided to you free of charge as a customer appreciation gift with any purchase.
Coming Soon!! Full-size polishing cloths can be purchased separately as an "add-on" option.
