About Us
The Story Behind Every Stone
A little about me — Laura — and the passion that started it all.
Hi, I’m Laura
My love for gemstones started long before I ever thought of turning it into a business. I was drawn to them for their beauty first — those deep earthy colours, the weight of a real stone in your hand, the way each one looks slightly different.
I started making bracelets for myself. Then for friends. Then strangers started asking where I got them. That’s when Designs by Laura was born.
“There’s no factory. No batch production. Just me, my beads, and a genuine love for what I make.”
What makes it different
Why These Aren’t Just Pretty Bracelets
“A lot of jewelry looks nice but means nothing. I wanted to create something different — pieces that are beautiful AND meaningful.”
Each stone chosen for both natural beauty and its associated energy. Each charm selected to add a layer of personal meaning.
“When you wear a bracelet from Designs by Laura, you’re wearing something that was made with purpose.”

Handmade Always — Every single bracelet made by my hands
Intentional Design — Every element chosen for beauty AND meaning
Accessible Pricing — Beautiful spiritual jewelry shouldn’t cost a fortune
