Grassy Green Drusy Agate and Sterling Silver Ring

My lovely friend Kylie, from Raw Toys, arranged for her birthday present this year to be one of my drusy pieces! I feel very honoured.

Kylie thought my usual rings might be a bit too chunky for her because she has small hands, so asked would I be able to make her a ring a bit smaller than my usual style. Of course I was totally happy to oblige! I sourced her a special lovely small green piece of drusy.

Kylie is really happy with the way this ring turned out (she even blogged a little bit about that 🙂 ), and that makes me feel happy, too. I love being able to make one of a kind pieces for lovely people!

Thank you so much, Kylie! And for any lovers of beautiful wooden toys and puzzles, head over to Kylie’s MadeIt Shop or her Raw Toys blog and see her gorgeous work. It’s well worth a visit.

Twin Butterfly Pendants in Sterling Silver

Keith contacted me via my website as there are two very special girls who have a birthday coming up – soon to be one year old twins. Keith wanted two butterfly pendants made for them.

Keith plans to have their names engraved on one of the butterfly wings.

What a lovely idea for a present!

Thanks Keith!

Burgundy Drusy Agate and Sterling Silver Ring

Rusty, the artisan behind the beautiful ‘Vance’ guitars, commissioned me to create a ring for his daughter’s birthday.

He chose the stone from my collection, then sent me a copy of a chart on which he’d measured the size of a ring from her ‘little gripper’. (Hehe, ‘little gripper’ made me laugh when Rusty send that to me!)

It was such a pleasure to set this beautiful stone for someone lovely to wear.

This is one of Rusty’s guitars: exquisite workmanship, and (apparently, from all who tell me) totally awesome to play. If you’re interested in owning one of these beauties, let me know, and I’ll put you in touch with him!

Thanks so much for the honour, Rusty. I really appreciate it!

Domed Disc Sterling Silver Drop Earrings

I made these domed earrings for Gracie for her 18th birthday last month.

Happy birthday, sweetheart!

Peridot Triangle Ring and Earrings Set

My cousin commissioned me to make a set of earrings and a ring for his lovely girlfriend.

The design needed to be small, with a green stone, and a little bit unusual. We Facebook messaged back and forth, and together, we came up with a design which incorporated those concepts!

I hope Laura liked them, and what a nice partner she has!!! 🙂

Amazonite and Sterling Silver Claw Set Ring

This ring was the second last piece I made for my Vocational Course. The design was one provided by the school, as the task was to learn claw/basket setting. I chose the stone though!!
