I really don't like normal jewelry stores at all, but truly enjoyed working with Mary on two pieces of jewelry now. My wife sends me jewelry screenshots for things she likes, which are impossible to find matches for in a normal jewelry shop, but Mary can just order whatever stones you need, and then create whatever you are looking for. Pricing is always fair and transparent too. She's fast too - I requested a custom piece on Friday night, she ordered stones Monday morning, which arrived Tuesday, she worked to assemble everything Tuesday night, overnighted the jewelry to me on Wednesday, which I received Thursday. I will be back!

Mary Elizabeth is an amazing person and her positive energy comes through in her work. If you believe objects can reflect the intent of their maker you will understand what I mean. Whether you are looking for a ready made piece or a custom design, I highly recommend you seek out the Glitter and Gold Studio.

My fiancé and I had a fantastic experience getting custom wedding bands from Mary Elizabeth. She was very patient and offered helpful guidance as we went through multiple iterations of designs. After the wax models were made we went to her studio for a “casting party” in which we got to be involved in the process of pouring the gold into the model. The whole process was outstanding from start to finish. We are super happy with our rings and feel like they are infused with good memories and good vibes :)

Mary created our custom wedding bands, and we could not be happier about the entire process and the finished product! It was so wonderful to work with her on dialing in the design, and she made 100% sure that our visions were realized. Being a part of the creation of our rings is something special that we will cherish. I cannot recommend her enough.

I went to Glitter and Gold to see Mary after some friends had their wedding rings made by her over a decade ago. She was everything I remembered - kind, knowledgeable, helpful, and communicative! I needed to have some fine jewelry sold, and she made it happen in record time and took a very reasonable commission for her effort. I re-invested the profits from the sale into having a vintage old heirloom family ring re-sized, cleaned, and re-pronged. It turned out beautifully! The entire process, from drop-off of the old jewelry to the sale and pickup of the refurbished ring only took a few weeks! I was floored by how easy it was. And I even made a little profit on the jewelry sale! I am absolutely THRILLED with the result, and I got some great tips from her about how to keep my "new" ring clean and sparkly! I learned a lot about the jewelry that I own, and I never would have been confident enough to price and list the items I wanted to sell on my own. I am so grateful for Mary and Glitter and Gold Studio! If you have a question about what you already own or want something brand new or custom, this is the place! Just send her an email and you won't be disappointed. Her work was extraordinary on both the sale of the old and the work she did to refurbish the "new". I will treasure my ring and keep my jewelry clean and sparkly for a lifetime now!

It was a real pleasure to work with Mary to design a custom ring. She was very responsive to my many questions and a really friendly person to work with as she involves you fully in the design process. All throughout I felt very confident in her expert design skills, felt comfortable asking even the most basic questions, and she was very up front about pricing along the way conscious of my budget. I really enjoyed the whole experience, including talking about gems and minerals, melting and pouring gold, and learning a lot about her craft! I highly recommend Glitter and Gold Studio!!!

Mary is an absolute gem (pun fully intended). We have gone to a few of her "Sapphire parties" and each one has been a blast. It's a great way to chill out and ease some stress while looking for gorgeous stones. Her jewelry portfolio and the displays she has are absolutely breathtaking, and I could look at them for hours. I cant wait to look for more Montana Sapphires with her soon!

Mary is an amazing jewelry artist! She is so thoughtful and attentive to everything we asked! I had a sort of crazy idea of a detailed engagement ring with mountains and cedar branches and Mary embraced the challenge with out a hesitation. And she far out did what I had imagined. Honestly if you want something special and one of a kind designed for you you can not go wrong here!

Mary is absolutely fantastic! my partner and I came to get a one of a kind engagement ring and Mary surpassed any of our hopes or expectations. not only to I have a beautiful ring but she included is in every step of the process. showing us how she was making the ring and making us several wax mock ups so we could actually try on all the iterations. she even let us pour the gold which was an awesome experience. Mary has such a kind heart and a keen eye. if I could give her more than five stars I would!

We first met Mary Elizabeth when she worked at another jewelry store. We had stopped in on impulse and talked about a potential ring for my wife. She spent quite a bit of time with us and really listened to my wife's ideas and added her own. We quickly decided we wanted to proceed with her and the result was a superb sapphire and diamond ring. When it came to having some other stones set, it was a no brainer to follow Mary Elizabeth to her own studio. Again she was very collaborative and crafted some lovely pieces for us. She has also twice spotted repairs that were needed on my wife's engagement ring and a pair of earrings. She's very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. We can't recommend her enough.

Mary at Glitter and Gold created our custom wedding band/engagement ring set and hit it out of the park on all fronts. She is super easy to communicate with, very knowledgeable about her craft, asks all the important questions, and has great vendor connections to help get the job done. We wanted a particular, uncommon color of Guatemalan jade and she was able to find a vendor who showed us options in Glitter and Gold. She worked fast, and even stayed late to host us a ring casting event in the studio. We love love love the final result and loved going through the process with her as well. Absolute 5 star experience. Thank you Mary!

Just the best place to find unique pieces or design your own with the help of an amazing artist. Mary Elizabeth will make sure that your piece is perfect for you and just what you want. She is low key and listens, has great ideas and craftsmanship that is beyond anyI know. We have had two beautiful rings , two pendants designed and created. We also have our jewelry repaired and cleaned regularly with Mary Elizabeth. If you need something special this is the place to go.

You can’t ever go wrong with Mary! Not only did she make my gorgeous engagement ring from just an idea in my head, but she’s my go-to for turning old pieces into something new and wearable AND when something I have needs fixing. She’s a sweetheart, you’ll definitely leave the shop with a new friend. Thanks for always taking such good care of me, Mary!

Mary is the perfect trifecta: incredibly talented, tenacious, and ridiculously generous. This is a person who will gently and creatively guide you through the process of turning your vision into a stunning piece of jewelry. She made my wife and I feel so welcome, like we had immediately made a long-time friend, and the rings she made for us speak for themselves -- gorgeous, unique pieces that receive compliments everywhere we go. Thank you, Mary!

Mary was a great person to work with. She made a super great and unique ring which my fiance loves and she could not be happier. Really enjoyed going into her workshop and getting to be a part of the ring making process too.
