I’m a small town artist and jewelry maker from Charlottesville, Virginia! I make all of my items by hand using repurposed magazines, newspapers, and other forms of paper media on lightweight wood. You can find me at different maker shows in Charlottesville and Richmond, as well as Shop Made in Richmond and potentially other Shop Made locations! You can also follow me on Instagram at artby.dori where I will keep you up to date on everything going on!

Through Art By Dori, I give old materials a fresh start, delighting in unexpected combinations and the tiny details that make each piece its own little work of art. My philosophy since I started Art By Dori has been “Don’t postpone joy”, and I hope that each pair inspires you to live by that as well.

Each piece is a one of a kind! If you like what you see, get it before it’s gone! Each pair shown in my shop here is going to be different than what I’ll have with me at my shows.
