It's the most exciting time of the year; after months of the cold and dark winter, being locked up and waiting, my first event of the summer season has finally arrived. It was the Thame Country Fair over the Easter weekend. I cleaned out my van, ran around the house 100 times trying not to forget anything and drove two and a half hours to Thame, just outside of Oxford.  Setting up - Catching up with friends This is my third year of events, so I know so many of the other traders. We are like one big family. It's...

Good News!!! I have finally organised my life enough to set a date for the next opening of the online shop. I will be taking orders from the 8th - 14th of April. I am adding a new collection to the website, a mixture of Prehnite stones rings and silver birch leaves, earrings and pendants. All the stone jewellery pieces are one-offs and sold as they are, as each stone is unique. But the studs will stay on the site. They will be added to the made-to-order jewellery collection whenever I open the shop. In the last couple of months,...

The list on the EVENTS page is up, but I expect to add to it, especially in October and November. This time of year is a pretty manic time for applying for festivals and fairs.

This year...

Hey all, It's the new year and a time we all get reminded to think about the future and our place in it. Do you make New Years Resolutions? Mine have been bubbling under the surface since last year, so not really tied to the new year but an ongoing project. This is an excellent time to get them into words. I am the kind of person who, if I make a public statement saying I am going to do something, then I am more likely to. By publishing my ideas and plans for the new year online, I'll be...

The next time I will open my website to orders will be the 4-8th January 2023. I aim to get all orders made and in the post by the end of the day, Monday the 16th of January. The shop will open up as it is, with the jewellery all on a made-to-order basis, with no additional products. I am busy updating the website's look and plan to open again in the spring with a new collection and some favourites from the stall added to the made-to-order selection. I am super excited to start making some new rings and share...
