Erica Everett is a local artist who grew up in the Hudson Valley and has lived the majority of her life in Nyack. After discovering a box of stamps at a yard sale years ago, she began to make jewelry; breathing new life into those beautiful little squares of paper that have traveled to and from many places across the globe.
Since then she’s been finding and peeling stamps off of the backs of letters sent between lovers, friends, spies and everything in between. She has fallen in love with exploring how they have made their way to New York.
She’s drawn to nostalgic American images, strong female figures, beautiful florals, architectural details, and things curious and whimsical when thumbing through stamps.
Each piece of jewelry is one-of-a-kind and handmade from a vintage, cancelled postage stamp, and your wearing will add miles to its travels!
They make great gifts for the travel-bug in your life, anyone feeling wanderlust, or that hard-to-shop-for friend.
