A couple of pieces from a new “Skyscape” collection I’ve started working on. I love the way the zappy blue streak stands out from the pinks, oranges and reds

(37) Recycled jewellery challenge - work in progress! - YouTube or click on the image to see the video

Work in progress ! Work has begun on the @atworkgalleries recycled jewellery challenge sawing out some shapes and smoothing down the edges which created a lot of flip flop dust! I’ve got an idea of what I’m going to do but it’s working out how to fix them together which isn’t going to be as easy as I hoped. Thinking cap is on 🤔

"Wave" colourful large cuff bracelet

Lots of colours in this Wave cuff bracelet. I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out once it had dried and been cleaned, especially the black dashes which can be a little unpredictable but I think it's come out pretty good!

The @work recycled jewellery challenge

Watch the video here  @work recycled jewellery challenge - YouTube

​
The #recycledparcelschallenge has begun! Jo and Adele from @workgalleries have
sent out parcels of items destined for landfill (or juicy rubbish as they put it 😂) with the challenge to make a piece of recycled jewellery. It was certainly a surprise when I opened my parcel, even the packaging raised an eyebrow and a giggle 🤭 I’m feeling a bit baffled, excited and nervous but I’m up for the challenge. Any ideas anyone? Anyone? Thanks again to my amazing niece who did all the video editing. I put my best voice on and admire anyone who can look relaxed and natural on camera

Scotland Trade Spring Fair

25/1/2023

Day 1 of the @scotlandtradefair, the stand is up and the doors are open. It's good to back at the heart of all this creativity and the spring and summer colours have been popular so far. In case I haven't mentioned it before(!) I'm on Stand D65

New work going to Scotland spring trade show, Glasgow SEC

17/1/2023

0 Comments

 
Picture
As I traverse my way across the country from Sussex to Glasgow later this week, these pieces will be bundled up and come with me to the Scottish spring trade fair. It’s been a while since I did this show so it’ll be nice to catch up with people and meet some new ones. It’s been quite hard thinking about spring and summer during the winter, especially when the workshop was -4 degrees one morning(!) but I think the orange and blue mottled pieces look very summery. The square-circle necklaces are great if you like layering and easily fit over your head so no fiddling around with fiddly catches. But if colourful chunky is your thing then the larger statement pieces are still in production.

Time's flying by with just under 2 weeks to go until the @sparklefestivefair at the stunning @landmarkartscentre in Teddington, south west London. As well as all the gorgeous arts and crafts there's independent food stalls with lots of delicious treats. I might treat myself to a mulled wine and mince pie at the late night opening on Friday... Christmas is definitely coming! Two for one with this flyer!

Autumnal tones on this triple twist ring. I’ve been picking fallen autumn leaves on our morning dog walks. Not sure what I’ll do with them yet - spray paint them maybe 🤔- they’re soo pretty I couldn’t resist!

Tenth Wedding Anniversary commission

13/9/2022

0 Comments

 
A really lovely commission for a tenth wedding anniversary gift but this time with the colour on the inside. His and her rings with black inside, his having a bronzed finish on the front and hers with satin effect. Aluminium and tin are traditional materials for the tenth wedding anniversary. The belief behind lies in that this is the first milestone and shows the marriage as durable and resistant, strong yet flexible.

Cuff bracelet in the making...

17/8/2022

0 Comments

 
It’s stiflingly hot in the workshop today so I was sitting in the shade going through the hundreds of photos on my phone (I think we can all relate to that) and I came across this series which I never got round to posting. It’s a quick snapshot of making a cuff bracelet which includes cutting, snipping, smoothing, polishing, forming, cleaning and finally of photographing. I’ve missed out some stages as I forgot to take a photo 🙃 and the quality of some aren’t very good but I think it gives an idea! #jewellerymaking #cuffbraceletmaking #colourfuljewellery #makeabangle #craft #handmadejewellery #handmadejewelry
