What started out as a whim turned into a career for jewelry designer
Michele Scholnick. While in graduate school, Michele took some art classes for fun and within a mere two weeks, she was hooked. As a child, Michele's mother would use bare branches on the way to school to explain the concept of negative space. And now, Michele's branches have been seen in
Life and Style,
WWD,
In Style, and
Lucky. Last week, we premiered our Next Big Thing feature with
Paola Hernandez, and today we're excited to have Michelle as our next, Next Big Thing. €œI€™m really flattered! And a bit relieved," Michelle tells Stylehive. "I still have days where I wonder if anyone other than my mother is going to like my work!" Click READ MORE for our interview with Michele, and SEE SLIDESHOW for her modern, organic pieces.
