Ardent Designs is a creative endeavor by Joelyn Welch, based in Ypsilanti, which is in southeast Michigan. Joelyn creates lovely hand made jewelry from only the highest quality materials, including 14 Kt Gold, Silver, semi precious Stones, Swarovski Crystals and custom made Fused Glass. Joelyn started creating jewelry in 1998 with a passion to compose metals and beads. Practicality along with elegance are the priorities that guide her design, while nature, textures and shapes are all inspirations. Joelyn always had a fascination with glass, so in 2008 she began fusing glass. She is now working to combine her old and new techniques to create a brand new exciting line of products in 2012 - stay tuned!
