About Me
My name is Leonie, and I am a makeup artist and artist. In March 2020, I discovered my love for jewelry making. Initially, I experimented with macrame and developed my own style. Soon after, my passion for copper emerged, allowing me to express my connection to nature, animals, and elements even better.
Mashcici Hand-Crafted Arts
My jewelry is born from my inner intention to create beauty and bring joy. It’s a fusion of my creative mind and the skill of my hands. I connect the precious materials myself, resulting in something greater than the sum of its parts.
Mashcici means “1+1 is more.” When people wear my jewelry, the beauty and joy transfer to them, impacting those who wear and admire it.

Copper & Macrame in Harmony with Nature
Elements from nature are the foundation of my artistic creations. I breathe new life into animals, plants, and crystals, allowing them to live on, be cherished, and share their positive energy with us.
By combining macrame and copper, I turn natural elements into art objects. Macrame has been used by various ethnic groups for centuries. Using different strength cords and various knots, I create unique patterns. Copper is connected to the elements from nature through a process called galvanization. It’s a complex process where copper is deposited onto another medium using electricity. During this phase, copper grows in its own way, giving each piece its unique textures and character. To me, it feels like magic.
