about

_FRAU_RAU_CO. is Michelle Rau's lifelong hobby and most recent endeavor. A Los Angeles native, she began stringing beads onto just about everything back in the early nineties - sewing elastic, bobby pins, shoe laces, bikini strings, and even her own hair. Her more legitimate beading attempts began in 2011 in Eugene, Oregon after taking one wire wrapping class and the rest is history. Since then Frau Rau has been carefully crafting jewels and aspiring to find admirers of her passion. Based out of Baltimore in the Mid Atlantic, _FRAU_RAU_CO. is open for business!
