The About Me bit...
From humble beginnings in Silversmithing, (I couldn't find any jewellery I liked so I decided to make it myself), to expanding my creativity into other crafty fields, my jewellery journey is forever taking new twists and turns. I just love making things and trying new crafts, and I have found other people sometimes like what I make too (which is nice!). I like Spooky things and Halloween, I like gemstone jewellery and shining Sterling Silver. I love animals/nature and I love to reuse supplies that other people would just discard. All of these things are reflected in the products on offer here. I think jewellery is a very individual choice and that is why people love handmade, unusual jewellery as they get a unique piece that is different from everyone else has.
I love to recycle/reuse/repurpose items and I hate waste, so lots of my jewellery/gifts are made from things I've collected, saved or been donated. Broken jewellery, random beads, donated supplies and basically whatever I am inspired by, gets made into something sparkling and new. The Sterling Silver I use is now 100% recycled as my supplier has, at last, become more eco-friendly. This means that instead of being mined using Earth damaging methods, they recycle Silver that is already in existence and make their bullion wire and sheet. I try to do my bit by keeping my own Silver off cuts and making them into something new or sending them back for recycling.
I try to rescue/recycle/repurpose/reuse as much packaging as I can, as I try to keep extra packaging to a minimum. I do not have commercially printed or branded packaging (Save for little sticker I might print myself) as I think that is unnescessary. Some may say that this looks unprofessional but I would rather reuse, recycle and reclaim as much as I can and keep waste to a minimum.

Original Artwork.
I have always been a creative type so I thought I would share it with the world.
My Art will be made using mixed media, paint, resin and well, generallly whatever I have at the time.
I have a lot of works-in-progress at the moment and will hopefully be making some progress soon.

Resin, or Epoxy Resin is used to make a wide variety of decorative pieces of Art, Jewellery and Keepsakes.
It can be filled and decorated with various media from colourful pigments to semi-precious stones.
The possibilities are almost limitless and so every piece of resin art is unique and individual.
We have some wonderful original, handmade pieces in our shop.
