Featured Boutique Artisan, January-February 2010

Robin Yancey of FuNky ReLiCs has been making jewelry since middle school. Her first love is video-photography and is currently a news photographer here in Springfield. Much of her spare time is spent making works of art in to jewelry and taking creative pictures of that art. Owl, peace signs, birds, and roses are Robin’s most-liked things to incorporate into her jewelry. Repurposing vintage items from flea market into something modern is a favorite as well.   She likes a little of everything such as making, hair clips, coat pins, rings, kitsch jewelry, necklace, bracelets, and earrings.
