The Cosmic Creator Behind Alchemiele Designs
Hey there, I’m Tracy Miele – the heart and hands behind Alchemiele Designs. My creative journey began with a spark of curiosity and a few metalsmithing classes at a local craft center. What started as a simple hobby quickly grew into a deep passion that took over my spare time (and let’s be real, most of my thoughts).
I started by crafting pieces for family and friends – and of course, a few for myself (because who doesn’t need a little extra magic in their life?). As my confidence in my craft grew, so did my desire to connect with others through my jewelry. So, I stepped out of my comfort zone and took my work to local markets and fairs. It was terrifying, but every conversation, every connection, fueled my drive to keep creating and sharing those little pieces of magic.
Metalsmithing and wire wrapping are my part-time obsessions – my creative outlets where I can truly let inspiration flow, guided by the world around me. By day, I’m a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, helping kids with special needs navigate their own unique journeys. But when I’m not working to empower others in that way, I’m either outdoors, painting, exploring new places, or hanging out with my family and friends – the people who make life a little more chaotic and a lot more magical.
Every piece I create is a reflection of this balance – a blend of connection, creativity, and an ever-present reminder that we’re all on our own journeys of growth and transformation. So, when you wear Alchemiele Designs, know that it’s more than just a piece of jewelry – it’s a symbol of embracing who you are, no matter what path you’re on.
