Lisa Yang

Lisa Yang has more than 30 years of jewelry making experience. She sells her handcrafted jewelry creations to gift shops and specialty stores and in her online store. She started writing about jewelry making on her website lisayangjewelry.com in 2012 and for The Spruce Crafts in 2014. She has published hundreds of articles on how to make handcrafted jewelry. As a working mother of 2, Lisa found time to make jewelry by bringing tools and supplies along to her children's activities and sports games. She began documenting her techniques and projects on her website to provide a way to access previous information 'on the go' in a searchable online format. This led to opportunities providing projects for The Spruce Crafts website and other jewelry craft suppliers, and eventually writing books. Lisa loves to create as a way to relieve stress, relax and continue to learn. She enjoys making jewelry with wire, bead weaving stitches, loom weaving, macramé, polymer clay, and other techniques.
