Amanda Horton’s creative drive began early – at age seven, she was caught tracing her own body with hopes of creating her own couture clothing. Today, twenty years later, Amanda has created a line of jewelry, assorted accessories and housewares that channel her old-world, vintage sensibility with modern simplicity. Her business, Allium Designs has flourished into a diverse line of jewelry with pieces as easy to wear as they are glamorous. Amanda Horton is an Oregon native who grew up in a small town in the Willamette Valley. She started her business, Allium Designs in 2006 while living in New York. Since moving back to Portland, her main focus has been growing her business. She currently sells her handmade jewelry online and in a few great boutiques around Portland. She started making jewelry in high school after taking a metalsmithing class and after many years in hiatus, started metalsmithing again just last year. Currently, Amanda works at Oregon Health & Science University and helps investigators find funding for their research. She received her degrees in Political Science and Sociology at the University of Oregon in Eugene.
