I, too, love handmade jewelry- it's art. My honey is an artist, so we go to a lot of art fairs, and I get to know a lot of local jewelry makers, and it's amazing what they can do.Most of my recent jewelry came from my honey trading art for art.
This is something that isn't black-and-white about consumerism. It's important to support artists if you can- which means buying their art. If artists can't afford to make art, we lose something valuable.
