Oconee Designer Moves Into Her Own StudioBy Don NelsonOnlineAthens.com

Athens, GA – Artist and textile designer Jennifer Heynen has been building a following for her jewelry, ceramic beads and fabric designs from her home for the past 14 years, but recently the level of orders grew to the point that the Oconee County transplant had to open her own studio and gallery.

Heynen, who moved to Watkinsville in 2006 with her husband, Nik, from Kokomo, Ind., opened Jennifer Jangles Studio and Gallery that occupies space in commercial building shared by Mary Lou’s Garden and Glo Salon on Barnett Shoals Road just off downtown Watkinsville’s Main Street.

Jennifer Jangles opened last week and spotlights Heynen’s multiple talents in art — fabric design, jewelry, pottery, ribbons and decorative buttons. Her pieces are bright and whimsical.
