Giving to charity 2020.

Yup, this year I decided for every piece of jewellery I sell in the run up to Christmas, I will donate ￡1 per item sold to a local charity dear to my heart.

I already offer FREE postage in the UK, contributing to a lower price for the buyer, but I commit to also donating to charity.

If I sold all my 200+items that would mean ￡200 to charity, at a time when as a human family we need to work together to help each other navigate 2020.

In total I was able to donate £10+ Gift Aid to two charities in the UK, following the sale of 10 items in the run up to Christmas 2020.

My two online shops are on Etsy (US platform) and Folksy (UK platform). Each shop has a unique stock.

Turquoise heady pendant

This wire wrapped turquoise bead pendant took 4 hours to complete. It is made from tarnish resistant silver plated copper wire with an intricate motif.

As with all pieces, this is a unique one. I will never be able to replicate it due to the number of wraps. Even if i attempt to make a 2nd one, it will be different.

Each piece is an individual wire art piece, influenced by the mood of the day.

This pendant is available to buy on my FOLKSY shop

Wrapping it up for Christmas 2017 – only until 15th December

Not long left until Christmas time is here for Christians across the globe. It is a time to spend with family and friends. It is a time for celebration and gifting.

For many of us, this time can be very stressful to get the “right gift”. Gifts do not have to be big. Gifts can be small and home made. Or even locally made.

These beautiful pieces are still available in my Etsy shop.

To help Santa along a bit…. if you buy from the UK shipping is on me until the 15th December 2017;  standard shipping charges apply world wide.

Shop will be taking a break from the 15th December, until January 2018, when it will reopen. Hopefully I will have some new pieces added to the collection.

A short holiday, is always a wonderful time to recharge.

Continue to shop local, continue to support local artists, if not through buying then through promoting your local shops though blogs; liking the artist pages. Let’s support creativity; imagination and diversity.

Hand painted wearable art

The following pendants are made from sediment stones; picked up from the shores of the island of Crete; in Greece.

To complete the design I have hand painted each stones using acrylic paints and for durability they have all been coated with clear varnish.

Jade silver pendant

This delicate pendant was conceived from the desire of incorporating precious metals into my wire wrapping.

The silver wire is .99 pure. in total there are 6 g of silver wire incorporated in the design. The stone itself is also a semi precious stone – jade. A beautiful stone which plays in hues of light green and blue green veins.

The delicate features of the webbing would make it a perfect compliment to an evening attire; would go perfectly with that delicate “black number” that all women have in their wardrobe. Of course as the design is avant garde; boho chic – it can compliment your smart casual style too.
