Shimmer by
Cindy® was founded in 2005. It was born out of my love for making jewelry and my desire to bring these designs to
you. My company began on the principle that the best designs come through direct customer input. With this
in mind I created the Shimmering Inspirations® Custom Collection, my exclusive line that allows my customers to become
the designer.
As my company has continued to evolve, I wanted to expand and carry a line that would be
inexpensive, versatile, yet offer my customers a different type of shimmer. So I created my Simply Shimmer Collection.
It is in this collection that I have found the best pieces that represent the latest trends, of color, texture and types of
metal. My
expansion didn’t just extend to jewelry. The next place I found myself was incorporating this "shimmer"
onto T-shirts and tanks. I found that shimmery apparel was in demand and with these I could create bold statements that
were both fun and could help support a good cause.
While
expansion is good, I also believe you must do good things with it. So I looked even further and found my charitable
voice. I discovered that with an innovative design I could help put my own little spotlight on a worthy cause.
I did just that when I created my Shimmer for the Bear bracelet & tank which helped raise money for the Bear Necessities
Pediatric Cancer Foundation. This is one of the several charities I have supported through the years and what this
has taught me is that no voice is ever to small.
In these past five years Shimmer
by Cindy® has grown not only in the products we carry, but to the places my Shimmer is found. What
started up locally is now found on customers throughout the United States, Canada, Europe & even Australia, a far
distance from where we first began. What has added to my excitement is that they have been highlighted in both the Daily
Herald, Northwest Herald newspapers, and on NBC 5 Chicago.
So
it is with great enthusiasm and gratitude that I continue on making the commitment to you to strive for excellence, never
losing sight of my initial idea, and always bringing you quality products that shimmer.
All My Best,
Cindy Hock
