Our Story
Payton Jewelry was founded in 2010, but the story began much earlier with Kristi's unwavering dedication to building a better life for herself & her daughters. Back in 1998, Kristi's first daughter, Blue, was born, & she worked multiple part-time jobs to make ends meet. Despite the challenges, she was determined to achieve more and enrolled in school to pursue a degree in fashion marketing.
Fast forward almost a decade later, Kristi's second daughter, Sheah, arrived, & she left her job in retail management to spend more time at home. Money was tight in 2007, but she persevered & began heating their home with a wood stove. She noticed the beauty of the wood they burned, & her artistic eye led her to start setting aside some of the pieces that were too striking to burn. Her interest in crafting with reclaimed wood soon paved the way for her love for jewelry making, & she began sourcing materials from thrift stores & local craft shops.
Kristi spent hours on the living room floor teaching herself how to make jewelry & eventually created a workspace out of several printer's drawers filled with carefully selected pieces. Her designs were beautiful and timeless, & she started selling them at craft shows and markets. Payton Jewelry quickly grew in popularity, & she expanded to several mall locations , wholesaled her jewelry to boutiques & eventually opened her flagship store in Doylestown, PA in 2019. Then in 2020 she moved her studio to a gorgeous space in the heart of her hometown just two block from the store.
Today, Payton Jewelry is not just Kristi beading bracelets on the living room floor. It's a team of incredible & talented women working alongside her, and she provides opportunities for them to learn & grow with the business. Her love for the ocean, sand, & travel also led her to open a beautiful store front on the Ocean City Boardwalk in 2021! This store was the chance to expand on not just jewelry but more accessories. It was then the Payton Beach Apothecary was created. A scent reminiscent of beach days & summer. This scent fills all of the stores & is made in small batches.
In 2023, Payton Jewelry further expanded with a new location in Cape May, continuing Kristi's vision of blending craftsmanship with coastal inspiration.
From the chalcedony, aquamarine, moonstone, & freshwater pearls that are staples in her dreamy resort collections to the way she treats everyone like family, Kristi's unwavering dedication to love, family, & empowerment has created a beautiful & inspiring story for Payton Jewelry.
