Hi, I’m Tori — the artist behind Nature’s HandyWork.

I create high-quality resin and fine silver jewelry using real wildflowers gathered from the bluffs and trails along the Fox River in Northern Illinois. Each piece is a quiet tribute to the natural world — a way to press pause on fleeting beauty and wear a little piece of the wild.

Nature has always been where I feel most grounded. I find inspiration in tangled meadows, delicate blooms, and the quiet resilience of the forest floor. My work blends storytelling with craftsmanship, preserving real flowers like Queen Anne’s Lace, daisies, and moss in resin, or shaping fine silver into tiny leaves and fossils — each one made by hand and with heart.

I started this journey with a deep love for creating and a desire to help others carry something meaningful. Whether it's a memorial, a birthday keepsake, or a just-because treasure, I believe jewelry should feel personal — like a whisper from nature, meant just for you.

Thank you for being here and supporting my small business. I hope my work brings a little wild beauty into your world.

— Tori
