liette crafts by Liette Lecours – I began crafting and making jewelry early on when I was only 14. Life moved on and I dabbled in stained glass. And then back full circle to making jewelry in 2010. I try to use only natural items (metal, gems, crystals, glass…) and use very little plastic (guitar picks are the exception). I also re-use older pieces of jewelry and make them new again. And I strive to make my prices affordable. I am a partner of the festival organization, CLCartsevents.com, managing the vendors. Hope you enjoy your time with us and you like what you see!
