Peace Oderinde started her jewelry business on July 19, 2021. Before the lockdowns began, she had sold around 300 dollars worth of jewelry.

She creates all her jewelry by herself, at home. Peace sells all types of silver jewelry, including zodiac sign necklaces, friendship bracelets, customized charm bracelets, and more.
Oderinde claims that her unproductivity inspired the business.
“I don’t do anything in this COVID time,” Oderinde said.
So, she decided to be productive and start a jewelry business
with some help from her sister. She stopped selling jewelry up until the end of August because she wanted to get used to her schedule and plan how she could manage her time with school back in session.
Oderinde strives to make sure jewelry is affordable. Since she’s a student as well, she knew that some students can’t afford expensive jewelry. Another important part about Peace’s jewelry is that she offers a one-month warranty.
“I do a one month warranty because sometimes I have a friend, she plays too much,...she breaks necklaces everytime,” Oderinde said.
