About The Creator

Hello! My name is Amanda Edwardsen and I am the creator of Refine & Wire! I live in Texas with my incredible husband, Everett, and our german shepherd, Ruger!

I grew up in South East Asia (Sri Lanka and India) and various places in Alaska. I have never felt that there was an absence of beauty around me, no matter where I have lived in the world. Ever since I was a young girl I have felt the need to create! Painting, dancing, singing, photography, adventuring, I was always onto the next thing (& I still am). I am always looking for new ways to express myself. Beading has become an incredible creative outlet for me. I am inspired by a lot of things, but mostly I am inspired by people and the beautiful earth that I get to live on.

I created this business out of a desire to do something that I truly love. It's my passion to create pieces that make people feel beautiful and one of a kind. I am constantly learning from those around me and growing into this art. So much time, love, and intention goes into each and every piece. Please enjoy this showcase of my work.
