WHO ARE WE and WHAT DO WE DO?
We are Anita and Alison McGlamry, both artists, and we love to design and create things by hand. McGlamorous comes from our last name and was a nickname given to us by all of our wonderful friends we have met in the arts arena. We believe that an accessory can help make an outfit look more expensive and even be that final touch that changes everything.
