E & J Designs Handcrafted Jewelry has over 28 years of experience designing and creating unique, handcrafted jewelry. Inspired by the beauty and tradition of Día de los Muertos, I created this collection because there are not many places that offer Día de los Muertos jewelry.
I will be offering over 100 unique earrings, bracelets, and necklaces, all inspired by this beautiful holiday. Each piece is handcrafted using a variety of stones, gold brass, and gold-filled findings. With prices ranging from $6–$80, there will be something for everyone to enjoy!
Day of the Dead Candles From E & J Designs
My love for Día de los Muertos has inspired me to create these handcrafted candles as a beautiful way to remember and honor the loved ones and pets who are no longer with us. Each candle is made to bring a special touch to your altar and Día de los Muertos decorations.
I will have a variety of designs, including Catrina candles, pet candles honoring dogs and cats, papel picado, altar candles, cempasúchil crosses and flowers, skulls, pan de muerto, small and large Catrinas, and more!
Available in different colors and designs, there’s something for every altar and Día de los Muertos celebration.
