Five years ago in a small boutique, Jennifer Dahl first saw soldered jewlery and was immediately enchanted with it. A fan of all things vintage, she loved the idea of turning old, forgotten photographs and time worn papers into a piece of jewelry that was fun and inspiring. Motivated to learn, Jennifer found basic soldering instructions on the internet and began teaching herself at her kitchen counter. It wasn't long after when she sold her first pieces at a small retail store in downtown Fargo. The jewelry sold so quickly that she felt comfortable in leasing booth space at the Minneapolis Gift Market, which proved to be a huge success. Within the next year Jennifer expanded to markets in Chicago and Atlanta, and quickly added New York, Las Vegas, and San Francisco. Her designs can be found in over 800 retail stores and specialty catalogs in 49 states and 5 countries.
