About the Artist

In 1995 Jannelle opened her studio where her love for art, history and imagination could all take flight. She works out of her home studio creating enchanted accessories for her booth at Renaissance, Faerie & Art Festivals. You can find out what faire's she will be attending on the News & Events Page or purchase One-Of-A-Kind items here online.

With the focus on accessories as wearable art, Jannelle has designed a very unique look that transform the wearer from function to Fancy.  Each One-of-A-Kind creation brings it's own enchanting finishing touch, all handcrafted with extra attention to every detail. 


Jannelle has been creating for 30 years, gaining experience with medieval design by making costumes for Renaissance Festivals. Her talents have extended to quilting, fabric dyeing, crewel, beadwork, and photography, all of which she employed when her son decided on a medieval-themed wedding. She now uses her diverse skills to offer you all the services of a medieval guild via the Internet.


Jannelle graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a Bachelors Degree in Fine Art with a focus on graphic design and drawing. She does mixed media work in painting, textiles, murals, photography, and plaster relief paintings on wood, resulting in dimensional artwork. Some of her pieces become interactive as viewers open doors or press buttons to interact with the artwork.
