Jane Hosey Stern...Creator, artist, owner of Junque Drawer Boutique and the heART CAVE Studio in Olathe, KS, & Junque Drawer Studio Online/Website.After 38 years as a teacher & counselor, Jane found it a natural transition to move into her other love...creating art & jewelry & repurposed stuff and to do that in a store called Junque Drawer. Along with offering a wide variety of unusual products, customers are also drawn to her popular classes to create self-expressive art. Jane, her daughter, Hannah Greer, and many of her friends offer art adventures from jewelry creation, beaded wineglass & bar items, poetry stepping stones, junk collage art, and much more. "I knew I was in for an adventure when I realized I'd rather root through trash cans in our alley in Medicine Lodge, KS, than play other stuff. Finding treasures, re-working them into jewelry, home adornments and wall art was emblazed into my being starting in the 1960's and has been an phenomenally wonderful addiction every since. I combine typewriter keys, game pieces, trinkets, charms, parts of car license tags, optometrist lenses, watch parts, buttons, and pieces of whatever and put them together in a unique style to adorn yourself and your home. When I doodled endlessly on my papers in school, I was just practicing for making my wisdom quote signs that I now love to make! I now doodle on canvas signs, wood beaded handle plaques, vintage bags, people's walls, furniture, greeting cards, suitcases, toolboxes, etc... nothing is safe! Along with my our handmade items, the Junque Drawer Boutique and our Junque Drawer Studio Online Store are full of great pieces we've created or found from other artists & companies that we LOVE!
