Buying local just got way more fun. Three words: Sugar Bean Jewelry.

Created by Jennifer Boyer, owner of Healy Bea Boutique (4410 E. Camelback Rd.), Sugar Bean Jewelry was launched because, ”Our customers were coming in and saying that they would like to buy a gift for $50 or less. Two years ago that same customer was spending $200 or more.”

In response, Boyer started manufacturing her own line, starting with a single $44 mini-necklace grouping (14K or platinum plated with hand set cubic zirconia stones). After the pieces started flying off the shelves, Boyer expanded the line to include earrings (take a look at the “stackable earrings”), bracelets and even couture pieces.

Sugar Bean Jewelry now sells to about 20 different high-end boutiques across the country in addition to The Willows Home and Garden, Beauty First, Scottsdale Jean Company, Moments Salon, Twig and Twill and of course Healy Bea (where it all started). Get a head start on autumn birthday gifts! And, check out the celebrity fans below:
