Iām Julie Branstrom, the maker behind JB Metal Studio.
I’m a one-woman show! I design, fabricate, package and ship all of the items you see here. As long as I can remember, I’ve had the need to create things with my two hands and I especially love the small scale of jewelry making. I'm excited about unexpected color combinations and am a huge fan of oxidized silver and how it contrasts with turquoise and other stones. My style is rustic and a little bohemian and inspired by the beauty of nature. Many of my pieces have a botanical theme. I create in a sunny studio in my house in downtown Lawrence, KS. My husband and I live in an old church which was built in 1863, and has been converted to a house. The original 10’ tall church windows are still intact and it’s an amazing space to be creative in! I'm happy to take on custom pieces and enjoy working with people to create the special piece of jewelry they were hoping for. Feel free to reach out via the contact form if you’d like to discuss a specific project.
