Affiliation: Military Spouse
Product: Fine Handmade Jewelry
I’m Erin, owner and creative director of The Dainty Forces Company.
I am a military spouse of an incredible husband and mom to three huskies. We are currently stationed on the beautiful island of Oahu where we have been for the last 4 years.
During my time here, I worked as a diamond sales specialist for over 3 years, and in late 2022 I decided to quit my job to pursue a career in my degree field. Shortly after switching careers, I was let go due to budget cuts from what I thought was my dream job. I did not have a plan or a vision and was confused about what my next steps in life were. Reflecting back on the time I spent working in fine jewelry, I knew that I had a passion for helping people tell their stories through pieces of jewelry. But to me, jewelry is more than a piece of metal, it’s a moment, a story, a meaning and I wanted to make a difference.
Being a military spouse, there are so many leaps and bounds you conquer while your service member is away, and that is why I started to create meaningful pieces of jewelry that bring joy to whoever wears them and create a special meaning behind each piece. Each piece is carefully hand-crafted from high-quality materials with your story in mind. From our family to yours, we’re thankful you’re here.
