About

THE ARTIST

Meet Jamie Johnson

I like to believe I chose the best of both families before I was born. My fathers strength and my mothers quiet power. Their love gave me balance, resilience and a strong foundation to help others as well as my own ability to heal. While life has brought me many deep losses, it has also brought transformation. After years as an Athletic Trainer, a shift in my health led me back to creativity. What began as quiet afternoons making jewelry with my daughter and friends, soon became my purpose.

22 Blessings was born from that journey- each piece carrying intention, love and light. My work is about renewal, connection, and celebrating the stories that shape us. From every single challenge, I've learning this truth: beauty always finds a way to bloom.

HOW IT STARTED

I met the love of my life during my Golden Birth Year — 22 — his lucky number too.

22 Blessings was born from love, loss, and renewal. After his passing, I began seeing 22 everywhere. It became a sign to me of love that never fades and inspiring me to build a business that turns that emotion into art.

With over 20+ years of experience in making jewelry for friends and family, I finally decided to dip my toe into the pool and open a true company to share my love of life and inspiration.

Currently, customers in our local area seeking high-quality, customized jewelry and religious items face limited options. Many resort to purchasing mass-produced jewelry from large retail chains or generic rosaries from local churches. These alternatives, while readily available, often fall short in meeting the unique desires and personal tastes of discerning customers. My goal is to be an avenue to manifest their inspiration into a bespoke jewelry piece.

Thank you for supporting a small female, minority-owned business. I hope you have a blessed day, and always remember that love is always just that… Love ♥!

A LITTLE MORE ABOUT ME

Connecting With the Artist

Beyond my jewelry business, I bring skills in communication, data entry and analysis, event management, and mentoring. I am passionate about promoting literacy, fitness, and wellness, with experience tutoring students from kindergarten through college in person and virtually. My background in teaching has equipped me with diverse instructional methods to engage learners and help them exceed benchmark assessments. While working with Azura and AmeriCorps, I logged over 300 hours supporting 30 students in reading, all of whom improved each term and many of whom developed a new love for reading. I am also the author of a book of love poetry titled The Life of Love, which reflects my dedication to creativity, expression, and inspiring others. As an Athletic Trainer, I provided care, treatment, and education on injury prevention and recovery for athletes, teams, and organizations. I also planned and executed events, maintained facilities, and analyzed performance data to improve outcomes.

These combined experiences highlight my commitment to service, education, and community growth—values that also drive 22 Blessings LLC.
