Hidden Fires




The bracelet cuff you see here was inspired by and made for a very good friend of mine. She has suffered with something called social phobia for a very long time and has recently begun to highlight this condition and how it can affect a persons life. She is a quiet woman, but she is full of life and warmth and creativity and has much to give.
The fiery red freshwater pearls signify all that fire and determination and courage, and the copper leaves are meant to represent growth and creativity.
I like the way the two colours compliment each other and I am really pleased with the flow of the whole thing!

And for the Bridesmaid..

This picture shows a complete set of jewellery (earrings, necklace & bracelet) and matching haircomb that I have just finished making for a bridesmaid. Made in gorgeous shades of purple and lavender pearls with clear Swarovski crystal, this set was another challenge for me as I have never made jewellery in this particular style before, but I thoroughly enjoyed the whole ceative process! All the clasps and the comb itself are also completely handmade.

The Haircomb!

The Earrings- with sterling silver earposts.


The Necklace- 4 strands of scattered pearls and crystals.
