The love of beads and jewelry was something that Sedita stumbled on at the tender age of six on one of her several visits to her grandmother. These little tiny glasses that had holes in them became an obsession that led Sedita into the world of beading and accessory making. With the little that she had acquired and her fascination that had grown more and more from admiring jewelry that her mother possessed, Sedita sold her first piece of jewelry to her classmate at the age of thirteen years. Her first piece was made from beads she had gotten from “store reject” clothes which were cut up, packed, and sold as rags in bales.
Sedita always made unique pieces that she would also gift to her family and friends. Most of these pieces were loved by her and the people she gifted them to, as well as those who had seen them wear it. In every stage of her education, Sedita found a way to inculcate her love of jewelry making into making money or raising funds for clubs she was part of or for special causes. Big demand for the unique pieces came in, and as such, she found a way of making some money from her designs. This gave birth to ADJELEY (the name given to the first daughter of the Ga family Sedita comes from). ADJELEY is a Ghanaian accessory brand that makes handmade jewelry and accessories from beads, African prints, crystals, and semi-precious gemstones. Every piece is made in Ghana with love.
