In 2012, my husband and I became parents for the first time to our beautiful daughter. Motherhood changed everything, filling my life with love, chaos, and the joy of raising five incredible children—three girls and two boys.
During those early years, I discovered leather jewelry and fell in love. Have you ever worn it? It’s incredibly lightweight, comfortable, and effortlessly stylish. My daughters loved accessorizing just as much as I did, but my jewelry was often too big or too heavy for them. One day, after another negotiation with my oldest about which of my pieces she could borrow, my husband looked at me and said, “Why don’t we just make our own?”
That moment sparked something special. In the fall of 2016, we started Sisters & I Designs, creating jewelry that was fun, feminine, and lightweight—pieces we genuinely loved. At first, it was just a side hobby, a way to grow my own collection. But in 2018, when my husband sold his business, we decided to go all in, turning this passion into our family’s full-time business. By 2019, we rebranded as Iviana & Co., a name that reflects our heart for creating jewelry that helps women feel confident and beautiful in every season of life.
What began as a simple idea has grown into a community of amazing women. Hearing how a pair of earrings can boost confidence or complete the perfect outfit is why I do this. Every design is made with care, and each piece is a small reminder that you are worthy of feeling beautiful—no matter what season you’re in.
Beyond jewelry, I’m a homeschooling mom, a dance teacher, and once upon a time, I was a registered nurse. My life is full, but designing jewelry and running this business alongside my family brings me so much joy.
Thank you for being here. Your support means the world to us!
Love, Steph
