ABOUT US
Welcome!
And thank you for visiting our website!
CBU (Custom By Us) Creations is a small home-based business located in the capital City of Hartford, CT, where I now proudly spend 100% of my time between the Creative & Technical processes of running a web-based business. We are truly grateful for the patronage of those of you who have stopped by and supported us and hope that you will continue to share what you think about your purchase(s) and our customer service with your family & friends.
CBU was created out of my passion for making hand-made fashion jewelry & accessories using various mediums; including wood, metals, stones, paints/stains & fabrics (Just to name a few). Ultimately, I enjoy these things - while interacting with people from ALL walks of life who have a similar passion for the creative expression in various art forms.
As fashion jewelry is what we concentrate on (mostly) we are now creating more small craft items for personal and home use to add to our inventory. An example of some of these include; Wooden Cell Phone Holders, Mini Kitchen Towel Ladders, Wine Holders and small to medium-size Cheese Boards. We will often use mixed-media elements with these because we truly enjoy the creative process of this. Nothing looks more interesting as a wooden container that is set ablaze (pyrography) to take it up at least a notch. Or, wooden earrings that have been hand-painted in such a way to do the same; depending on the style.
CBU Creations is where creatively crafted and (mostly) handmade jewelry is made that does not pretend to be something it’s not! It is affordable for most. I promise (only) that it will continue to include pieces that are Fun, Funky & often; "Hot-Like-Fire!" Of course we include some Classic pieces because no line would be complete without them. Please check out our New Arrival's regularly, to see the latest additions to our inventory that is continually evolving.
