About Me: Embrace the Sparkle!

Hey there, fellow jewellery enthusiasts! I'm Megan, the creative force behind Megan Gros Designs, where I weave metals into wearable art.

My journey into jewellery making began several years ago, and I've been tinkering with beads, rings, scales, and gemstones ever since. From the gleam of stainless steel to the shimmer of titanium and the rainbow hues of anodized aluminum, I love playing with materials to create pieces that dazzle and delight.

Nestled on the beautiful West Coast of BC, Canada, my cozy studio is where the magic happens. Here, I blend the ancient craft of chainmaille with the enchanting world of scalemaille, infusing each creation with a touch of whimsy and wonder.

With over 875 sales and 330+ glowing reviews on Etsy, I've become a trusted name in the world of handmade treasures. When you shop with me, you can expect your items to be handled with love and shipped with care, straight from my creative sanctuary to your doorstep.

About My Work: Crafting Adventures in Metal

Chainmaille isn't just about armor anymore – it's a canvas for creativity! I love pushing the boundaries of this ancient art form, transforming metal rings into everything from statement necklaces to intricate household décor.

And let's talk about scalemaille – it's like chainmaille with a fantasy twist! With the addition of armor scales, my designs come alive with texture and dimension, ready to transport you to realms of myth and magic.

But the real star of the show? Anodized aluminum. With its dazzling array of colors and lightweight durability, it's the perfect canvas for my imagination to run wild. Plus, who doesn't love jewellery that's as easy on the eyes as it is on the skin?

From stainless steel to anodized titanium, I'm always experimenting with new materials and techniques to create pieces that are as unique as you are. While most of my creations are one-of-a-kind, you might stumble upon a few small treasures like keychains and fidget toys that are just too good to make only one of.
