Getting to know CoupDeCoeurJewelry

Hi, my name is Tina and I live in Athens, Greece, with my husband and two little boys, 6 and 3,5 years old. As most crafters, I loved to make things with my hands since I was little. My studies in the Economic University of Athens were left incomplete, because they made me a miserable person as they were the worst choice I could ever make. Instead I took two years of pottery lessons, some painting lessons, later some wall painting effects lessons and lately I attended a metalsmithing class.

For years, I made jewelry occasionally, for me and my friends. Five years ago I started making jewelry on a constant base.

 Elegant, feminine jewelry, with a touch of bohemian or nostalgic style.

I knew I wanted a French name, I love how French sounds and what a good combination it makes with items that concern women, in my opinion. I thought a French name would suit well the kind of jewelry I make, so I spent a few days repeating some of my favorite French phrases in my mind. I ended with coup de coeur both for the sound of it and its meaning. When you say you had a coup de coeur it means you truly love something, you lose your mind about something, you are passionate about something, you can’t get it out of your mind, you’re in love with it. I hope that some of the potential jewelry buyers will feel this way about the jewelry I make.  

 

For the time being I think I will continue adding different versions of the style you already see in my shop. What I would like to do in the future is to make home décor items, which I already do for my home, but would love to make them “officially”.

I have a blog titled  A Few Pretty Things(www.afewprettythings.blogspot.com). My facebook page ishttp://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Coup-de-Coeur-Jewelry/125376567518133

I also have a twitter account but I am still not familiar with it, I am in the process of learning what to do with it, but feel free to follow me:http://twitter.com/#!/cdcjewelry

Most of my inspiration comes from my materials themselves, the curiosity to put this with that and see what comes out. Ideas can also come from various things, a picture in an interior design magazine, a dress a friend wears, a pattern on a piece of fabric.

I enjoy making all my jewelry equally. But I like to change from one piece of jewelry to another so that I don’t get bored.

Thank you Krista for having me in your blog.

I wish you and your readers a very happy and creative new year.

My Thoughts

When I first set up the review and giveaway with Coup de Coeur I was very excited because her style was completely my style as well!

I received a gold and green necklace with Chinese knots. When I opened the envelope I noticed that the necklace was contained in a cute little bag allowing it to be delivered safely.

The necklace is made with a sturdy chain and each bead is held together tightly. The color combination is stunning and I love that each bead is unique and different. Coup de Coeur mixes them together perfectly! I also am well pleased with the length as it hangs perfectly! I dislike necklaces that make me feel like I am choking from them being too tight. That is not the case here!

Coup de Coeur sells many different pieces of jewelry including Rings, Earrings, Necklaces, Pins and Bracelets!

Each pendent and bead that is handpicked by Coup de Coeur is completely something I would wear. The quality is beautiful and I would make a purchase from her shop anytime! Not only do I feel this way but with a feedback of 100% Coup de Coeur must be doing something right!
