Hello, my name is Florence Wang.
Thanks so much for visiting my site.
I find inspiration in so many places. I've always been artistic, but since leaving an unfulfillng career I've found my creativity cannot be leashed.
I've met people who have their unique passions and love sharing their stories and projects. New York City is filled with people pursuing their dreams.
Here I hope to not only share my beautiful designs but also share success stories, resources and tips about starting your own business.
The inspiration I find pours out in the form of my jewelry and needlework. These are designed specifically for women with quirky, eclectic style. The woman who wears my jewelry loves a fun conversation piece.
It's amazing what we are able to accomplish!
If you have any questions about my work, or wish to commission a piece*, please contact me at

*A note on commissioned pieces: because new materials need to be gathered and ordered, please note that commissioned pieces require a minimum of two weeks to complete. Time needed will vary by request.
Needlework Paintings: If you're interested in a needlework painting, please contact me directly. Some of the designs you see are available for sale. I can also create a new original design for you if you have something specific in mind. Time and price vary according to size and the amount of detail required.
