A lovely surprise from Daisy & Mister


A couple of weeks ago, I received a lovely email from Arita of Daisy & Mister.
She wrote to tell me I had won her competition - the beautiful "Halla" necklace.
I was very excited and I love it!

French Garden





Who doesn't love a good garden?!

I know I do, and just this morning I was lucky enough to have time out with a close friend. We sipped our coffee and then enjoyed a leisurely walk around a gorgeous garden here in Eltham, Victoria.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the local gardens but I do love viewing pictures of beautiful French Gardens.



This piece that I have made here in Eltham is named French Garden, a bracelet featuring a gorgeous handmade lampwork glass bead together with Vintage Glass Beads, Lucite and Czech Glass Beads.
Available now in my etsy shop.

New Colours

The past week has seen me creating a new colour batch for my Large Ring - Earrings.
I love these earrings, they add such a splash of colour to your ears, they look fabulous if you have longer hair and they tend to pop out a little showing that bit of gorgeous colour or if you have shorter hair or wear your hair up they are cheeky and fun to wear - great for most ages too!

Snow White


Cherry Red


Sunny Yellow

Ring - Earrings


I've been busy this week making these fabulous Ring - Earrings.
They're made with czech glass seed beads in a variety of different and delicious colours.



I made a pair for myself and Miss 5 (Latesha) said "Oh mum, I really love your new earrings, they're so pretty, can you make me some when I'm older -------please?"

They're a delight to wear, not to mention light and with alot of colour, perfect for any time of year.
Shortly after listing a pair of Turquoise Rings in my online store, they were snapped up, so I'm adding more to my shop.





I've also listed smaller versions in a set. For you and your best friend or simply keep them both for yourself.

Flowers and Pearls

I've been busy listing new items in the last couple of weeks.
I have a bunch of these wonderful floral glass beads that I love working with and they look great against vintaj natural brass.
I've been enjoying playing around with different metals and I love the combination of copper and sterling silver together.
And who doesn't love a simple pair of Pearl Earrings.

She's b a c k!

Hi all,

I'm sorry it's taken me awhile to come back to the wonderful land of blogging, but as you know it's been an extremely rough 4 months and I don't want to get my hopes up in case of another possible big setback but I'm feeling like we (my hubby and our girls) are slowly getting back to our normal lives once again.

Anyhow, I've been listing a bunch of new pieces, which I'm really happy with.
It's always nice to see something new listed and I'm hoping for a busy time with the lead up until Christmas.

A few selected items for your viewing:

Camden Town Earrings



Black Sticks


Hues of a Vineyard


I look forward to blogging more frequently.
In the meantime please check my etsy store for more new items.

Petite Earrings

I've created these cute, petite earrings and I'm planning on making them in a whole range of colours, (I'm currently wearing a pair in duck egg blue).

They're small, but give out a little flicker of colour.
The metal components are copper that have been oxidized by E2SSupplies giving a gorgeous rosey tinge.

Blush is made with shimmery pink glass beads.




Hot Flush is made with Red Czech Glass Rondelles.




These are available from my online etsy shop.

Denim and Opalite



I've been enjoying making necklaces lately and this one is no exception.
The simple colours of Denim Blue in Lapis Lazuli and the White in the Opalite come together for a classic "go with anything" piece.

Spice of Life

I'm not a lover of pink (although it does look good on me), but I do love these pinks together.



The deep dark pink Kashmiri Beads are fabulous.
I've added milky lavender czech glass rondelles, bali sterling silver and fuchsia czech glass beads to make this wonderful necklace.

It's chunky and funky and great for any season.

My latest creation



This piece was fun to create.
In amongst the craziness of this past week I was able to make this necklace which helped me calm down a little, lol.

It features some of my very favourite colours and the aqua picasso czech glass beads are a personal favourite of mine.

Funky Resin Beads, Aqua Quartz and Sterling Silver make up the rest of this funky, long, necklace.

Hope you like it too!

Black Betty Set






I love making pieces that I'd would wear myself (which happens ALL THE TIME), it makes it hard to part with them though but I guess if I know I'd wear it, then hopefully others will too.

This is my Black Betty Choker and Earring Set.
Made with these fabulous chunky, black, resin, disc beads with small lavender fresh water pearls.






Matching Earrings compliment the choker beautifully, if you'd like to purchase this set or view my other items for sale please follow links to my etsy store.

I love Camden Town in the UK.
I love all the colours, craziness and wild nights out there.
