Slowmade: Nourishing Conversations for Jewelry Artists and Metalsmiths

Nora Feldman: Metalhead Jewelry - Born to Be a Rockstar Artist, Taming the Inner Critic, & Showing Up Even When Life Gets Really Hard


Listen Later

As a child growing up in Madison WI, Nora Feldman filled her days creatively, filming short movies and TV commercials, writing and performing songs, choreographing dance routines, painting, drawing, and even designing brochures for imaginary businesses. She scrapbooked, wood-burned, rock-tumbled, sewed, and even took up knitting… But above all else, Nora loved making jewelry. 

Surprisingly though, Nora chose a different career path in college worried that she wouldn’t be able to support herself as a jewelry artist.

During our conversation Nora shares how she rather unexpectedly birthed, Metalhead Jewelry when she found herself without a job due to the Covid shut downs. Going all in and dedicating herself to her craft, she quickly built a strong following.

Nora talks about about finding her unique voice, authenticity and social media, the importance of novelty in her designs, and the struggles she faces with being a creative entrepreneur.
