About bumblebee

For ladies who want jewelry that's as fabulous as they are, bumblebee jewelry is a fresh alternative to generic, mass made pieces.  Designed and handmade by Toronto gal Katherine Flynn.  bumblebee customers appreciate the finer things, like divine, dazzling, sparkly jewelry!

History of bumblebee jewelry

bumblebee jewelry launched officially in December, 2005 - but Katherine has been designing and making jewelry for ages. What started as a hobby evolved into a full-fledged passion (some say obsession) that demands attention!   bumblebee is building a name because there's a true demand out there for unique, high quality jewelry.   

About Katherine

Katherine Flynn is a self taught jewelry designer.  “I’m inspired by materials - by cut and shape and size and different combinations....  designing a piece of jewelry is a complex thing – you’re creating a sculpture, an adornment, an emblem...  I think about colour, space, texture, balance... and I love putting unusual combinations of colours or materials together.”



Katherine has worked as a waitress, fitness instructor, bike courier, and copy editor - but jewelry is her true love. She has a degree in Film and Theory criticism from York University, and she loves watching movies.
