Paparazzi

"Jules!  Jules!" shouts from eager paparazzi with shimmering camera flashes much like sparkling diamonds.

Juliet "Jules" Hennessey was a global A-list actress known for her breadth of film, television, and vocal performances.  Her leading roles in film led to several Oscar nominations and wins.  Her leading roles in television led to several Emmy nominations and wins, as well as long-term syndication with translation in many countries (and to further mention substantial royalties on a weekly basis).  She was profoundly talented in so many ways, but Hollywood was not her first passion.

Jules simply loved designing fashion jewelry.  When she was much younger, she dabbled in jewelry sketches but soon realized that drawing was not one of her many talents.  She was self-taught in design and learned how to physically make jewelry of all kinds by carefully studying online video tutorials.  Time, perseverance, some frustration, and admittedly a few tosses in the garbage led her to now.  She used only the best - Swarovski crystals of all sizes and textures, genuine gemstones of all sizes and textures, Swarovski pearls, glass multi-colored beads, pendants, charms, faux leather, decorative flower petal spacer beads, gold and silver metal chains, gold and silver metal plating, and silver wire.

She made necklaces, from chokers to long pendants to fancy pearls to bold statements with large gemstones (some with metal chains, some with string wire, and all with a lobster clasp).

She made bracelets, from charms to beaded stretch to cuffs to leather stud wraps (the charm bracelets were secured as a toggle or lobster clasp and the leather wraps were secured with a snap button).

She made earrings, from studs to dainty drops to hoops of all sizes to delicate designs using a mix of small crystals and small gemstones (all with a variety of backings).

She made adjustable sized rings lavishly decorated with encrusted crystals.  She hoped to someday learn how to design fashion rings with a wedding theme.

Her love was just a hobby.  Yet her hobby soon became a small business when she found enough time to focus on her designs.  Her small business soon became a booming business with hired assistants.

Her designs were a phenomenal success in mass and small retail and among fellow celebs.  She briefly considered leaving Hollywood to focus solely on her jewelry business, but knew that her fans nonetheless wanted to see her on screen.

And so while Juliet was a famous actress ranked highly among critics, Jules was ranked highly for her jewels.

Sparkling paparazzi camera flashes shimmered especially at jewels worn by Jules.
