About Us

Hi! My name is Cheryl. I am from Fort Collins, Colorado. I am the owner of Bedazzled Chef Gifts and Accessories.

I spent much of my work life in the retail industry. I then took a job as a corporate analyst. I am one of the few people who enjoyed (almost) every job they had! I few years ago, I had the opportunity to step away from the working world for a while. I enjoyed time off, spending time with my family, and volunteering in my faith-based activities. But I felt the need to do something creative.

I tried several hobbies. They were fun, but I decided I needed a “side hustle”. (I know, can you have a “side hustle’ if you don’t have a “hustle’?) I have always loved food! As many of you, I think I was a “Foodie” before they were a thing! (Yep…You know who you are!) However, I had no qualifications to work in the food industry. But, my hobbies led me down the Foodie road! One day, while watching crafting videos on YouTube, (I told you I needed a hustle!) I saw some jewelry-making videos. That led me to make jewelry for Foodies! I traveled that path and built a website, joined some artist cooperatives, and began selling my jewelry. But…creativity kicked in! I took my love of photography and combined it with my love of food to create a line of home gifts and accessories!

Everything I put out is personally hand-made. Most of the images used in my line are a product of my photography. And I scrutinize every piece to meet my artistic and quality standards. 

I have tried to come up with something for everyone! I hope you find something you enjoy! If you are a fellow Foodie, join me and SHOW OFF YOUR INNER CHEF!

Your Foodie Friend,

Cheryl
