ABOUT WIOGA
6 years ago I started WIOGA, I sat at home in the living room, listened to music, and made 4 pearl earrings, which I thought were pretty good. I posted them on Instagram and from there they went viral, they were so well received that I stayed up until 1:00 in the morning producing jewelry.
I love the immersion and the creative process, I play with the colors and shapes of the jewelry, which eventually becomes In the end, it becomes the perfect design and one that I can feel is absolutely right in my stomach.
I use the jewelry as therapy, it helped me especially after my husband died of cancer in 2014 and I was left alone with my children, who were then 3 and 5 years old. I enter a world where I feel right in what I do.
The name comes from my children's names Willads and Augusta.
Today I make a living from what I love most and I am eternally grateful for that, but there is much more to running a business than just designing jewelry. So my dream is that I can hire more people who can do what I'm not so good at and then focus 100% on my designs and then it would be great if my jewelry could go abroad.
I want my jewelry to bring joy, from the buying experience to receiving the beautiful jewelry box, opening it and seeing the new piece of jewelry. My customers should feel like they are wearing something special and that they stand out from the crowd, and that they spice up their outfit with beautiful colors.
I want my customers to feel they are getting quality and they receive an experience when they receive the nice box.
