The New Patina Collection

This is my new Patina Collection, inspired by rustic, bold colours. All of these pieces are now listed in the shop, with more to come!

If you’re not yet subscribed to my mailing list, well, whatcha waiting for?

Sign up over there to the right for exclusive discounts and announcements!

I would LOVE to have you!

These are my newest creations…

Glass bead-woven Brass medallions in a variety of colours

I love them! They are darling. I’m trying to focus on Spring and Summer collections, though it is still very much Winter here!

I have also recently taken up enameling and I’m very excited to start offering those pieces to you!
Enameling is fusing powdered glass to metal at high temperatures. Torch firing allows me to have more control over the process and to observe how the powder melts, flows, and then hardens to a smooth, durable vitreous coating.
It is a lot of fun and the finished pieces are extremely unique, resulting in completely one of a kind items.

All of these pieces are now listed in the shop and ready to ship!

I hope you love them as much as I do!

I’ve mentioned before how I like jewellery you can play with. Well, these are very playful. They spin! I’ve been playing with mine all day, I should probably take it off and get some work done.

I’m thinking of doing a small, short video showing them in action, too. Think that might be helpful.

They are all just about listed in the shop!

Me? I was busy adding some new additions to the shop!

Bead Woven Headpieces

I absolutely love the finished products of these! I’ll be honest though, making them was sort of a headache. Lots of edges for thread to get snagged on. So… when these ones sell, I may only offer them again on a custom order basis.

We’ll see, though. I do love them.

What do ya think?

I’ve been working on these behind the scenes for the past couple weeks and I finally got around to photographing them today. I’ll be listing them individually throughout the day.

I love them! I like their dainty simplicity.

They are made by weaving tiny 1mm Japanese glass seed beads through Antiqued Copper small cable chain. They look adorable worn individually, stacked together or even paired with other bracelets. I’ve chosen to list them individually, but I might list some in pairs or groups later on. We’ll see how it goes!

I did finally get around to working on some more ReBalanced pieces and got them listed today. I should probably be doing laundry or something, but, meh. That’s what Sundays are for.
