Jennifer Perkins can see decorative possibilities in almost anything. If it can be drilled, painted, glued, or bent, she will make it into a piece of jewelry. She got her start selling earrings made from fishing lures at family garage sales in her home town of McKinney, TX. Today she still scours the lure aisle for treasures to add to her line of one of-a-kind revamped vintage pieces for her successful online shopping site Naughty Secretary Club.

Jennifer graduated from South West Texas State University with a BA in psychology and a minor in philosophy. With this lofty degree in hand, Jennifer set out to conquer the business world. She managed to land a job as a secretary. With few challenges to pursue and lots of time on her hands, she decided to return to her childhood passion- jewelry making. Jennifer combines all of her fave things: music, pop culture and vintage goodies in her sassy jewelry and accessories. They are sold at stores throughout the US and Canada as well as online at www.NaughtySecretaryClub.com.

In addition to making her own business a success, Jennifer set out to help other young business women of Austin become successes too. She has helped form an information and support group, Babes in Business Bonanza, to disseminate information, provide a forum for the problems and celebrate successes of women in business.

Jennifer and Naughty Secretary Club have been featured in magazines and newspapers such as Lucky, The Wall Street Journal, Teen Vogue, New York Times, Elle Accessories, Alternative Press and more. Her jewelry has also been featured on such TV programs as Knitty Gritty and Craft Corner Death Match. Naughty Secretary Club makes its big screen debut this summer with pieces worn in the Bad News Bears and Idiocracy.

Jennifer has been branching out into the world of TV. Her first appearance was on HGTV’s Crafters Coast to Coast. Look for Stylelicious spring 2006 on the DIY Network. Jennifer is a co-host of Stylelicious with her buddies from the Austin Craft Mafia of which she is a founding member.

Stylelicious is a hip series that focuses on wearable crafts. Jennifer also hosts her very own daily program for the DIY Network called Craft Lab. Each day on Craft Lab there is a new guest, a new craft and a new adventure.

When Jennifer is not working (which is not often) she enjoys spending time with her husband, dog and cat in their kitschy South Austin home. Jennifer also co-produces an Austin, TX fashion show and craft bazaar called Stitch and owns a record label called Has Anyone Ever Told You? with her husband. Jennifer is currently working with the Austin Craft Mafia on a group book as well as a jewelry book of her own. She will also have projects in several books coming out in 2006 including Tees: 50 Things to Do With a T-Shirt by Sarah Sockit and Not Another Teen Knitting Book by Vickie Howell.

Jennifer's life long goal is to go on a VH1 show about the 50 worst metal bands of all time or most awesomely bad backup dancer moments and make snarky comments.
