About Her Daily Muse
Hey There! My name is Sierra Bailey...very nice to meet you. I am the 35 year old designer behind the jewelry label , the dog mother of a sassy Rat Terrier named Faye and a resident of Austin, Texas.
In an ideal world, I would eat candy for every meal and be able to function on five hours of sleep a night so I could spend more time in my studio!
Not too long ago, I realized that I was using my blog in place of what used to be my sketch book. That made me really happy. I had been so disappointed in myself for abandoning something that was such a part of me and that I adored so much, but now I see that really it had just evolved. Even better, now I can share it.
Thank you for the stopping by and reading a glimpse of my life. I love to share what inspires me, the behind the scenes of running and growing Manic Trout and the fun adventures that I seem to be constantly getting into!
I'd love to hear from you so please comment if you wish and as always, you may reach me at sierra [at] manictrout [dot] com!

I love your blog as well as your designs. I was wondering if I could have your permission to use your firefly jar on my blog… I will give credit of course. Sincerely, Catherine Dougherty
HI Catherine,
Thank you! Sadly, it is not mine to give. You may use it as I did, but I do not have a credit. I found it on tumblr or we heart it.
Best Wishes,
Sierra
Hello Sierra! I really enjoyed reading your blog and seeing your creations. I do like the mermaid necklace design you have featured this month. Good luck with your jewelry…I too am following my passion to be creative in life.
Best wishes,
Nancy Geng Vassilakis
