Tin Ventures

Sydney Denessen is the artist behind Tin Ventures, a jewelry studio based in Bellingham, Washington. She creates unique pieces by repurposing vintage tins sourced from local antique stores. Each tin is carefully cut by hand, then sanded and buffed to reveal its texture and character. Sterling silver earring wires are added, transforming the materials into wearable art that combines history, craftsmanship, and thoughtful design.

Her work highlights the beauty of everyday objects, giving new life to materials that might otherwise be forgotten. The process requires patience and precision, as each piece is shaped and finished to ensure both aesthetic appeal and durability.

Sydney lives in Bellingham, where she continues to explore creative ways to blend sustainability, design, and storytelling through her jewelry.
