About KBae

How did KBae Jewels start?

My name is Kayla Quirk and I created KBae Jewels out of the love of making jewelry. Sophomore year I attended IMG Academy and boarded there which left me with many spare weekends on campus. My friend and I started making jewelry as a hobby in our dorm rooms to pass time. Soon after we started making jewelry for close friends. Now currently as a junior in high school, I picked up the hobby again. I am no longer at boarding school and currently attending American Heritage which has allowed me to have more flexibility with creating cute, fun jewelry. I began wearing my jewelry to school and with supporting and loving friends, they had encouraged me to start selling my jewelry. I worked in my current class, E-Commerce, to build and create my own website (which you’re on right now!). As for the name, KBae Jewels, KBae is a a nickname my friends call me and it was the perfect pairing with “Jewels”!

Why KBae Jewels started?

Wearing jewelry has always been a fun way for me to add to my outfits and I found myself buying over priced jewelry just to fulfil that want. I tried wearing jewelry in the $10-$30 range but anything gold would tarnish right away. My goal was to create long lasting 18k gold plated jewelry that was affordable, all being 20 dollars or less. That's when I created the idea of KBae Jewels!! I am constantly creating new jewelry and updating KBae Jewels. It’s such a creative outlet for me and I’m excited I get to share my jewelry with you!
