I make these because I love making them. I wear them because I love wearing them :o) They are both light and weighty, delicate and solid, intimate, present and a little mysterious. An absolute pleasure that’s even “practical”. They are great for keeping stones between the heart and the solar plexus :o)

Being an avid reader, I guess it was only a matter of time until I turned my attention to bookmarks. Beautiful, tactile, practical bookmarks. For the art of reading or, if you tire of reading, for the art of divining too :o)

In jewellery, our own bracelets and rings are what we see most. Given that, I like how bracelets can quickly reflect, set or keep us in our mood. Floaty, solid, colourful, serene, delicate… so many sides to us.

The pleasure of earrings…

The finishing or starting touch of necklaces. The intimacy of the closure on the back of our necks. The front part that we choose to present to the world. Yes, I do think about all of this when crafting a necklace :o)

Pendants, one of our jewellery “staples” I think.

I’m not sure why we don’t wear more pins. I’m not sure why I don’t make more pins actually. They’re such an easy and beautiful way to change a look.

I am at the beginning of my ring making. I love rings and/but the ones I love are the ones I wear always. I think that because I so treasure mine, I felt I needed to gain a bunch of experience and skill before delving into their world. And I guess I feel as though I am at the “dipping” and not yet “delving” stage :o)
