Collection: Mariah Wheeler

View my products

I have been creating art and craft wares since 1995. At first, I sold my items at craft shows and at a local cooperative gallery. I soon dreamed of having my own retail shop. I opened The Joyful Jewel in 2008. I met amazing, creative people and enthusiastic patrons who looked for gifts made by Joyful Jewel's 160+ local artists. My own jewelry and glass creations continued to evolve and refine.

After 13 years of the pleasure of having my own shop and representing so many other artists, I decided to "retire" from the Joyful Jewel at the end of August 2020. The Dancing Prisms arose, by divine magic, out of this more contemplative and slower-paced life that I have led since then. I so love working with the faceted, cut glass prisms, the feel of the smooth and shaped pieces, the sheen and way the strands seem to float in my hands as they take shape. Of course, the result of the strands dancing to spray their prisms in the light are pure delight and magic. I hope buyers will feel inspired as they find the perfect sunny window to hang their Dancing Prism!

I have been a member of WomanCraft since July 2021 and would love to show you my work and the creations of all the other WomanCraft artists when I am in the shop on Friday mornings.  I'm happy to discuss special orders.

Mariah's collection of Dancing Prisms and copper jewelry can be found in our Carrboro, NC store. Items sold online are shown below.
