The lovely Jelaine from Little Alligator asked if I would be able to create a replacement wedding ring for her husband.
His first one is apparently in their garden somewhere – maybe cemented into their paving!
Jelaine creates gorgeous drawstring bags at Little Alligator – I own two, and they really are divine and so well made.
You should check them out!
One of my lovely customers, Trish, previously ordered these clip-on earrings from me, and liked them so much she wanted another pair!
These Czech glass leaves are sweet, and look great as a dangle earring.
Thanks, Trish, and I hope you enjoy them as much as your first ones!
I created this sterling silver button ring for a customer, to replace a costume jewellery piece that she loved but that had broken.
At 37mm across, it’s a lovely big ring – simple and a great statement piece.
I enjoyed making this ring, thank you Debbie!
When I came across this beautiful piece of chrysocolla, I just knew I had to have it! My mum has a gorgeous close-up print of the bark of a gum tree hanging in her house, and this reminded me very much of that.
After some deliberation, and some collaboration, I created this pendant for her.
I was really happy with the way this piece turned out – I think it is one of my favs so far!
My good friend Narelle asked if I could create a pendant for her to give to a good friend of hers.
Narelle sent me some sketches of ideas she had, and we agreed on this design, which incorporates the first initial of the name of each of the members of the family.
I’m pleased with the way this one turned out, I think it’s effective – and I do love peridot! Thanks, Nez!
I created these Czech glass and sterling silver clip-on earrings at the request of Trish, a customer of mine.
The clips are premade, as it’s just not practical to try to make them myself.
She was very pleased with how comfortable they were, and I’m creating her another pair as we speak!
The lovely Mel was a lucky one at Christmas time – her husband gave her a drusy agate and sterling silver ring.
He originally bought a ring from my shop, but when it arrived, he realised that he had misjudged the size.
I was happy to help by getting him to return it, and creating a custom made one instead! Louis chose the ring from my gemstone collection.
Mel creates gorgeous things for little people (and some for big!) in her shop Creative Wishes.
So cute!
I created this pendant for my best friend. Her lovely father passed away recently, and she needed something to wear close to her heart. Seraphim were angels, and seraphinite is named because of the feathery appearance of the stone, so is a lovely choice for this piece.
I designed it to have six feathery figures gathered around the stone, to represent Mick’s six children. Morgan said the pattern also reminded her of olive branches, which was lovely, as her dad used to take her walking in olive groves.
Seraphinite is believed to promote self healing and aid with contacting the spirit world.
I love you my dear friend, and I hope some gentle peace comes your way.
I’m pleased to say I have been invited to display some of my work at Gataker’s Artspace in Maryborough, here in Queensland. Gataker’s is a community artspace which displays the work of local and regional artists and craftspeople – they also have musical performances in their courtyard, and every month they open one Saturday night for music, wood-fired pizza, coffee, art and artisans. Sounds divine!
The lovely staff at Gataker’s have chosen a selection of my earrings and pendants, which arrived a couple of days ago. If you’re up around Hervey Bay way, stop in to 311 Kent Street, Maryborough, and let me know what it’s like. Beautiful, I’m sure!
It’s been a while, but I finally got around to creating something for myself! This ring is set with some faceted cabochons of green onyx.
I think this may be the start of a new range. Hold tight!
