Sheldon Roy is the 14 year old creative force behind The Silver Craftsman. His shop features a wide variety of unique items made out of silverware ranging from jewelry to garden markers. I love the silver napkin ring holders (pictured) & the silverware bracelets with beads are beautiful. I asked Sheldon how he got started working with silverware.
"Last year, I saw someone stamping silverware and it was intriguing. I thought, I can do that! So I made personalized luggage tags for myself out of flattened spoons. That is where it all started and I was hooked. I made a few items for gifts and many started telling me, You have a real talent, you need to sell these! So, in March of this year, I started my own Etsy shop and it has really taken off. I like to say all my items are hand-crafted or handmade...there is a real craft involved, coming up with my own original ideas and unique items, telling their own story. My items aren't something you can find in popular jewelry stores."
He went on to say that jewelry making wasn't on his radar as an interest, but he really enjoys it now. In addition, Sheldon also enjoys basketball, baseball, fishing, playing guitar & also does lawn work. Talk about an active enterprising young man!
