About the Business

The Business

High Vibe Jewelry was founded in 2022 by Grace Leverich and released its first collection with just 3 wire-wrapped ring designs! Originally based in Bloomington, Indiana, the company grew and expanded the product line to offer various types of unique, handmade accessories. In addition to a year-round online storefront, High Vibe Jewelry attends seasonal vendor events and offers select inventory at It’s A Beautiful Day in Kansas City, Missouri. Hopefully, High Vibe Jewelry will be available at more KC stores near you soon!

The First Collection

High Vibe Jewelry's first-ever product photo! These three ring designs launched High Vibe Jewelry. Grace chose these three rocks to start because of how well the colors and metaphysical properties complement each other.

Blue Lace Agate Rings

Calm & collected. Black wire was chosen to add contrast within the product, but was eventually switched to a gold wire-wrap instead.

Rose Quartz Necklace

Nicknamed "The Love Stone," rose quartz promotes universal love, (self love & unconditional love) and was Grace's first crystal ever. Kayla gifted Grace a rose quartz necklace in 2020 that truly inspired everything you see here!

The brand is all about positive, uplifting energy and the invaluable impact this has on ourselves and others. The founder believes all interactions are energy exchanges so all materials for inventory creation are ethically and sustainably sourced. All metals (chains, jump rings, clasps, etc.) are supplied through etsy small businesses, rocks and beads are sourced through trade shows and other small businesses, and packaging is lovingly hand stamped by Grace!

High Vibe Jewelry’s mission is to offer affordable, handmade jewelry that radiates good vibrations and encourages peace within daily life. The business is a constant work in progress with a strong commitment to be better everyday and contribute more love to everyone everywhere.

I look forward to sharing the full definition and articulation of my High Vibe dream!

About Me

Hello! I’m Grace, a passionate, 23-year-old sole proprietor eager to give my sole focus to creating art and contributing positive energy to the collective!

From a young age, I expressed myself creatively and felt called to create something purposeful. I started making jewelry in late 2021 as a way to relax after college courses. I quickly discovered how fulfilling and therapeutic the hobby is, which led me to create new pieces every day! As my friends began to purchase rings, I quickly gained confidence in the craft. Consequently, I prioritized any free time I had into developing what eventually became High Vibe Jewelry. I waitressed for startup expenses, contemplated different brand names, brainstormed potential product lines, and built a website, logo and basic business plan with no previous experience in the industry. I self invest nearly all income after bills into fueling my startup.

In early 2022, High Vibe Jewelry became official and I applied for my first trade event, ‘A Fair of the Arts,’ in Bloomington, Indiana (my college town). My sister and lifelong best friend, Kayla, assisted with the show and my heart knew this is my destiny. With the help of amazing family and unconditionally supportive friends, High Vibe Jewelry held 5 pop-up shops in 2022, which led to 11 more the next year! Doing what I love strengthened my desire to grow. I was blessed to receive my degree in 3 years and graduated May 2023 with a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and concentration in public relations.

My favorite part about High Vibe Jewelry is connecting with positive, wonderful, forward-thinking individuals at pop-up events. Each show proves to be energizing, inspiring, uplifting, and grounding all at once. These events ignite my inclination to stay self-employed despite the need to work a couple of jobs alongside growing the business.

I plan to continue growing, developing, and rebranding High Vibe Jewelry until it’s my full-time career. I currently have 2 part-time positions outside of my business, editing resumes for Right Management and public relations planning for Salon Ramón in Brookside.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read about my roots! Your love and support means more to me than words can express.

Stay radiant, high vibe humans! :)
