OUR STORY

Hi friend! I’m Hannah, owner of Feed Me Gems and your online bestie. Feed Me Gems was born at my kitchen table as a passion project during the height of the pandemic when I started creating little “hair candy” pieces out of broken vintage treasures. I was working at the Down Syndrome Association fulfilling my purpose; investing in and build into people who I deeply loved. My passion project of hand making my gems started as a way to bring me joy in a heavy season and quickly grew into something much bigger. I discovered that my hair candies and gems had connected me to a community of INCREDIBLE WOMEN who wanted what I did; to add sparkle back into their life inside and out.

As my small business grew, I faced a choice between my two passions: building my brand or continuing my work with the Down Syndrome Association. I had never felt more conflicted as my business had up-ticked in demand, my heart was deeply rooted in my work with the special needs community.... so after MUCH prayer, a lot of phone calls and deep breathing; I chose both. Feed Me Gems became a place where I could merge my love for gems with my love for people by HIRING my friends with Down syndrome and celebrating individuals with Down syndrome. That choice became the heartbeat of everything I do. We proudly sponsor the Down Syndrome Association of Central Oklahoma, WINGS and "Step Up For Down Syndrome," among other organizations who serve the community of individuals we love so much!

Today, Feed Me Gems is more than jewelry. It is about COMMUNITY, kindness, inclusion, and impact. Each gem is designed to help you sparkle inside and out, to remind you that your story is worth celebrating, and to prove that differences are the most beautiful things about us all and should be embraced. My hope is that when you come here, you feel seen, loved, and reminded that the SPARKLE you carry is exactly what the world needs. I hope you leave a little sparklier than we found you, inside and out!

Your sparkly bestie and dopamine dealer,
Hannnah at Feed Me Gems
