One of my lovely clients selected this gorgeous piece of shattuckite from my gemstone collection, and asked me to create her a pendant with it.
There is something wonderful about being able to create something to wear from some pieces of rock and metal from the ground!
Thanks Katrina, I hope you are still enjoying your pendant!
One of my clients fell in love with faceted onyx (as have I!), and she asked if I could make her this matching ring and pendant set.
I was thrilled to! I love that she matched the set with a pair of coal black Czech glass earrings, too.
Love the whole set. Thanks, Ash!
I was honoured to be asked by my dear friend Judy to create a matching pendant and earrings set for her to donate to the ArtSound FM Radiothon fundraiser.
Judy asked me to incorporate the ArtSound logo into the piece.
She and her colleagues chose sodalite from my gemstone collection to really make these pieces gorgeous!
You can head to the ArtSound webpage on 17th November to pledge your donation and get your chance to win this set!
I was pleased to be invited to the 2014 Mount Eliza Art and Design Show, and I’ve just sent off a parcel of all of these pieces to be displayed and made available for sale.
The show is on from 24th to 26th October in Mount Eliza, Victoria. I’m sure it will be lovely. If you’re in the area, pop in for a visit and do let me know what it’s like!
My lovely friend Margaret is an artist, and I met her when she commissioned me to create this coherent wave pendant for her to wear to her art exhibition, Bliss.
The symbol is for infinity, of course, and also represents the number eight, which is a very lucky number in Asia and kept cropping up throughout Margaret’s painting journey!
We selected the turquoise, chrysoprase and amazonite as they were such delicious water colours, and I added the sparkling white topaz which reminds me of the sparkling water too.

Thanks, Margaret, your visions are lovely, and you’re a joy to work with!
Toni fell in love with the indigo beads on these earrings, and after she had purchased herself a pair, she wondered if I could create her a matching bracelet and necklace.
I love getting custom requests, so I was happy to oblige!
Toni loves them, and has received lots of compliments. Happy all round!
At the request of a customer, I recently created this double sided pendant.
This pendant depicts the element of metal, in both Chinese writing and Feng Shui symbolism. It was really great to create – sometimes everything just goes together totally smoothly!
I was excited to be invited to the 39th Annual Derinya Art and Craft Exhibition, and I’ve just sent off a parcel of all of these pieces to be displayed (and made available for sale).
The exhibition is on from 18th to 20th July in Frankston South, Victoria. Here’s hoping it goes well. If you’re in the area, do call in and let me know what it’s like!
Theresa was the lucky winner of one of my second anniversary giveaway prizes, a custom made piece from my Amorphia collection.
She loved the shape of one of my existing pieces, so I mirrored that for her!
Theresa chose two lovely milky aquamarines from my gemstone collection, to match a ring that her husband had given her.
I hope that Theresa likes wearing her piece as much as I liked making it! 🙂
** OOPS! My bad. If you’re surfing in from the August newsletter, and looking for the ‘Metal’ Feng Shui pendant, you can find that here. **
I created this for my bestie’s birthday. We had been laughing about how I’m not a fan of mustard coloured things. She is! 🙂
And it will be divine with her colouring, too.
Happy birthday, dearest Morgan!
