As a woman in the UK today if you attend a wedding or the races andparticularly if you are lucky enough to go to Ladies Day at Royal Ascotthen it is usually expected that you should wear a hat or nowadaysa fascinator

If you want to get ahead get a hat

People have always worn hats in someform whether as a protective head covering oras a mark of status within society hats have alwayshad their place In the 15th century it was expectedthat women keep their hair covered wearing veilsand wimples and refashioned male hats were alsopopular

But it was not until the 17th century that womenrsquosheadwear began to take the familiar shape that it does today Bonnetsbecame increasingly popular and at times could be extremely elaboratetrimmed with ribbons lace and feathers

The term lsquomillinerrsquo meaning a maker of womenrsquos hats refers to products derived from Milan andNorthern Italy such as the straws and ribbons used in the making of hats

The haberdashers who imported of these products were known as lsquoMillanersrsquo from which we getthis term The first use of the term in the UK was in the 1700rsquos

Hats were extremely popular at the turn of the 20th century not only forspecial occasions Victorian hats were large brimmed and ornatelydecorated with flowers feathers ribbons and beads The austerity of theSecond World War led to their eventual decline as an everyday pieceof a womanrsquos wardrobe

Nowadays hats and the ever popular fascinator are seeing a resurgencenot in the least thanks to the influences of women such as Sarah JessicaParker Paloma Faith and of course Kate Middleton

Choosing a hat or fascinator needs careful consideration Height faceshape and personality all play a part in shaping your decision A boldfascinator is a statement piece and is certainly not for the shy

Everyone can wear some type of hat or fascinator its just a matter of finding the right one to suityou

There are some amazing British professional milliners working today not least including thelikes of Stephen Jones and Phillip Treacy but you will also find in the UK some wonderful millinersselling their designs on Etsy each producing unique designs to put the perfect finish to any outfitwhatever the occasion

Off With Her Head is run by self taught designer and milliner Lisa Poolewhose designs are fuelled by a love of vintage fashion and moviecostumes

Based in Fife Scotland she prides herself on creating each piece by handand loves to create bespoke pieces for her customers

Off With Her Head focuses on creating vintage inspired pieces andalthough Lisa creates hats and fascinators from various eras in historyshe admits to being a little biased towards the 1950rsquos as its her favouritedecade for fashion

Whatever direction Off With Her Head takes the ethos behind the businessremains the same - quality hats and fascinators at a reasonable price

Ive always been artistic in one form or another As a child I always paintedand drew a lot At school I did everything from make a wooden fish pencilholder perspex badges pottery and childrens toys I was very into pencildrawings and shading but I loved using watercolour and other textures formy more cartoonManga style art

I was never very good at what back then was deemed the Girlie stuff I wasmore into woodwork and moulding and graphics This is probably what mademe choose my Bachelor of Science Degree in Architectural Technology Formy degree we used a lot of CAD (Computer Aided Design) to design buildings and building materialsWe also had to craft models of some of our own designs with foam board and other materials I wasin my element with this part of the curriculum

The great thing about craftdesignmaking things - whatever you want to call it is that there is a freedom in Art that you do not get anywhere else There is no right and wrong and no rules The rules come later At the point of concept it is just you and your imagination Which is very liberating and also quite scary because we are conditioned to think within the constraints of rules Art has no rules

Dianes Celebrity ChatsOur lovely Di from Peggyrsquos Knits chats to another celebrity about crafting

Tanya has worked on a number of shows the most recent being the character Adele Alfrey in ITVrsquos Emmerdale She has also worked on other familiar shows with awardwinning producers directors and writers She starred in the BBCcomedy Kerching Her first professional role was in Holby CityShe is also an accomplished presenter and budding playwrightTanya is a former student of the National Youth TheatreTanya told me how she has been artistic about how she sees artand her views on crafting

Please all take a look at Tanyarsquos website which ishttpwwwtanyavitalcom

Rug Making Ragtag RugsWith

Looking for something fabulous to make using all your old T-shirts sweat shirts and other disusedgarments If so this could be the project for you

The craft of making rag rugs is very traditional and dates backto the mid eighteen hundreds itrsquos still very relevant today whatwith the importance of recycling the other great thing aboutit is that the design on the rug can pretty much be whateveryou want it to be - an image of your pet or your house anabstract or geometric design or something floral traditionalhellip itrsquos totally up to you and your imagination

The technique Irsquoll be using for this project is a method calledlsquohookingrsquo which is very simple and produces a soft and hardwearing pile Irsquove tried to keep everything simple and equipment to a minimum so that everyone canhave a go My favourite fabrics to use are the afore mentioned T-shirts and sweat shirts as they frayvery little but most textiles of a medium thickness can be used

MaterialsVirtually any material can be used in a rag rug some materials are easier to work with than othersThe best materials to use for hooking include T-shirts sweat shirts lightweight cottonssynthetics amplightweight woolsynthetic jumpers Fabrics such as heavy weight denim are not suitableFor this project Irsquove used plain fabrics but patterned fabrics can also be used

HookingStep 1 Working with the Hessian design side up poke the hook through the Hessian and grab thestrip of fabric underneath with the hook

Step 2 Pull the end of the strip of fabric up through the Hessian so that you leave a tail of at least1 cm sticking up

Step 3 Move the hook along about half a centimeter poke it back down through the Hessian andpull a loop of fabric up through to the top of the Hessian a loop height of about 1 cm is best thenjust repeat this technique filling in the required area when you reach the end of a fabric strip pullthe end up through the Hessian and trim it so itrsquos the same height as the loopsMake sure your loops are dense enough and you canrsquot see any of the Hessian backing There is noneed to physically fix the loops in place as they will stay put automatically due to the thickness ofThe fabric and the denseness of the loops

What you will needA piece of Hessian measuring 90 cm x 110 cmSelection of fabrics cut into strips measuring1 - 2 cm wide depending on the thickness ofthe fabric and avoid any seamsRug hookDressmakers pinsScissors

Large-eyed needleBall of woolMarker penYard stick metre ruler2 sheets of thin A4 card or a flattened cereal packetCompassPencil

Ragtag Rugs Rug Making Ragtag RugsWith

Step 1 Using the compass and pencildraw two circles measuring 185 cmacross on the sheets of card and cut theseout using the scissors

Step 2 Using the marker pen and metre rule draw a rectangle on the piece of Hessian measuring63 cm x 84 cm leaving a boarder of about 12 cm all the way around the rectangle Divide therectangle into four giving you central lines for the width and length of the rug Place the card spotson the Hessian in the appropriate places and draw around them using the marker pen for the halfand quarter spots fold one of the card templates accordingly and then draw around it Draw in yourdesigns within the spots

Step 3 Fold under the raw edges of the Hessian and stitch with arunning stitch using the large-eyed needle and wool this is to preventthe Hessian fraying selvedge edges can be left as they are

Step 4 Hook in the strips of fabrics filling in the spots first and then thebackground You can either use the design shown here or make up yourown spots and colour scheme

Step 5 When completed lay the rug face down on the floor and turn in a hem of about 6 cms tothe back of the rug and pin it all the way around fold and pin the corners as neatly as possibleSew the hem to the back of the rug with a running stitch using the large-eyed needle and woolVoila You have a rug

SupplierFor an American Style Rug Hook costing about pound750 and also Hessian go to Fred Aldous CraftSupplies wwwfredaldouscouk

NoteSome people prefer to use a rug making frame which helps to keep the rugsquare but as the rug wersquore making here is fairly small and wersquore keepingthings simple Irsquove dispensed with this

The first item I sold online was on my Folksy shop(httpwwwfolksycomshopsLaurabyTheSea) and was a vintage ceramic andbead brooch the buyer was very pleased with it and gave me great feedback

Tell us about yourselfMy name is Laura and I live by the sea in the East of England Pakefield to be precise I live with my wonderful Brother who is a musician so we have a very creative household and in our bright conservatory I make ldquoLaura by The Seardquo jewellery (from necklaces brooches amp bracelets to ear rings and hair slides) using vintage ceramics I break vintage crockery hand sand it to ensure there are no sharp edges and make the shards into beautiful jewellery

When did your crafting begin and whyI began studying ceramics during my BA Hons degree in Fine Art at The University of Portsmouthwhich is where my obsession for vintage crockery began to grow Initially I began by making newplates and tea cups with vintage shards in but soon the beauty of the ceramic shards startedappealing to me which is when I had the idea of making jewellery out of them - and one day I justdid it and havenrsquot stopped since I just love how the cute patterns really stand out against the silverchain

What was the first item you made to sell online

What is your biggest crafting achievement and why

I think my biggest crafting achievement since starting Laura by The SeaJewellery has to be getting interviewed for the national ldquoMAKE Jewelleryrdquomagazine as their new ldquoIt accessoryrdquo designer I totally didnrsquot expect themto contact me via my Folksy store

Other than crafting what else do you like to do

In my spare time I like to paint I write I stronglybelieve it is the simple things in life that count I am a collectorof anything old with a story and pick up anything found on the seashore First morning sunshine trawling antique treasure troves walks on the sand with my pooch Sepia tones and seeing life through a lens makes me happy I do a photographyfashion blog(laurabytheseatumblrcom) and am a very sociable person These are a fewof my favourite things and yes that should include raindrops on roses andbrown paper packages tied up with string

Where would you like to be in 5 years

In 5 years time I would love to be able to do this on a full time basis tomake enough money to live I am aiming to have my jewellery sold in manyUK wide independent stores and hopefully a few abroad However theultimate dream is to have my jewellery featured in Vogue


Where does your inspiration come from

My inspiration comes from trawling antique and vintage shops photography (one of my current favphotographers is Elizabeth Sarah from America) and I am always inspired by other people When Iget talking with my friends about anything creative the juices start flowing and I get more designideas I am also inspired and work along with music (anything from RampB amp Hip-hop to Reggae andJazz I have an eclectic mix)

What are your favourite materials and why

Vintage ceramics because I adore the vintage floral prints on the crockeryand like the idea of being as eco-friendly as possible and like to only userecycled materials in my jewellery

What is favourite shop online that isnrsquot yours and why

My favourite online shop has to be Loglike a contemporary gift and home ware store with vintageelements The owner makes cute candlesticks from vintage plates and saucers that look amazing onmy coffee table (see httpwwwfolksycomshopsLoglike)

Has any person helped or supported you more than any other

I would have to say my parents and Brother Not just financially when Iwas a poor struggling student but they are supportive with everything Ido in life and I just couldnrsquot do without them My brother is more like abest friend

Tell us a random fact about yourself

I have 23 dresses in my wardrobe and have a vinyl collection of mostly 1980rsquos music (my guiltypleasure)

I had my own little piece of garden and the plants therewere in my charge if I forgot to water them and theydied mother would say you have to be responsible givethem a little care and you will be rewarded with so muchbeauty and as I look around the garden today thebeauty just takes my breath awayI checked out the herbs after the winter and just look atthis monster itrsquos the parsley how great is this

Here is a photo of the willow catkins or lambs tails as mymother used to call them she was a country woman andknew every wild flower by their old country names sheloved all nature and her garden and was my inspirationfrom an early age


Also I think that this flower is really confused it is of coursean antirrhinum when I emptied the summer bedding fromthe tubs some were still fine so I planted them in thegarden and as you can see have been well rewarded Alsosome silver foliage plants which I cannot remember thename of and of course have lost thelabel they seem to think that it isalready summer

At the moment you can get into the bog it does not look half as mysterious as it does inthe summer you can even see the streamMy better half and I have one or two projects this summer well I have theideas and he makes them work howlucky am I So watch this space

Oh you have to leave well thank you again for coming be safe until your next visit withme in The Garden

Your green fingered friendTina

Knitting with Dog Hairby Anne Montgomery

Contains easy step-by-step instructions for collecting cleaningstoring and spinning your dogs fur The book includes originalknitting patterns for the novice and the pro - from mittens toshawls to lace collars from your cats hair

How to Knit a Dog Hair Sweater

E-How

The brushed undercoat of a dog is called chiengora and can be used for knittingcrocheting or felting just like lambs wool or other yarn Dogs hair has been used forcenturies for weaving blankets and other coverings Dogs hair is much warmer thanwool Here is how to knit a sweater from dog hair

After the tutorial the writer goes on to leave a warning that dog hair is much warmerthan wool and an entire garment made of dog hair will be too hot to wear

I also found a very fascinating article about a lady called Laurie Moy on the Boulder DailyCamera website

Better a sweater from a dog you know and love than from a sheepyoull never meet

Warp and woof-woof Making clothes out of dog hair

Read more Boulder Daily Camera

This was discovered in an American newspaper by Creative Craftings Tinawe just had to tell you about it

I did some Googling about this and apparently there is quite alot about it I found a tutorial on the popular E-How site

Irsquom sure like me yoursquoll find this quite fascinatingIf any of our spinners out there fancy a go atcreating some yarn from their pooches we wouldlove to see some of the results It is also a greatidea for recycling all of that fluff that you areconstantly sweeping up off your sofa or yourcarpet There really is a use for most things afterall

Salt dough is so quick and easy (and therapeutic) to make endlessly adaptable a joy to sharewith the kids and has the advantage of being made from store-cupboard basics (although youcould make these projects in clay or fimo or even plasticine)The drawbacks are that it takes a while to cookpaintvarnish it will dissolve in wet or very dampconditions and will break if you drop it So allow yourself a couple of days to produce a finishedpiece and varnish thoroughly when decorated to protect against any damage

Making a Batch of Salt Dough

1 Mug of Table Salt2 Mugs of Plain FlourApprox 1 Mug of Tepid Water (Add final frac14 slowly)1 Tablespoon of Olive or Vegetable Oil (Optional)

Mix the flour and salt together in a bowlIf you are using oil (which helps to add elasticity but is optional and not necessary) add it to themug of water Add the water (with or without oil) to the salt and flour mixAdd most of the water stirring into the dry ingredients with a wooden spoon Add the last of thewater carefully as you will need more or less depending on humidity and the gradequality of theflourYou need to add enough to bind the ingredients without making it too sticky Empty onto a lightlyfloured surface and knead for at least ten minutes until the dough is smooth and slightly warm

A Few Tips for Modelling Salt DoughRoll out salt dough onto a lightly floured surface with a floured rolling pin or you could use abottle if you havent got a rolling pin Gently flattening salt dough with the heels of your hands willwork too but keep moving the dough to keep it even and turn it over to the fresh smooth sidejust before you begin cutting shapesKeep the thickness of your pieces under an inch much thicker than this and they wont hardenproperly in the middleUse a sharp knife to cut salt dough shapes but a blunt knife (or the back of a knife) is useful whenmarking lines onto the dough A scalpel or craft knife is best for cutting out intricate shapesUse pastry cutters plasticine moulds forks hair grips scrubbing brushes experiment withanything you have lying around the house

Cooking Salt DoughCook your salt dough pieces slowly in a very low oven The cooler and slower the better to preventdistortion in the cooking process These pieces were cooked at 140275 degrees or Gas Mark 1 forapproximately 2 hours but I often leave them all day in the oven at its lowest setting

Heartmade Gifts

Decorating Salt DoughYou can decorate your pieces before or after the cooking process Try adding food colouringherbs and spices tea or coffee to your dough as you knead it Or try painting your uncooked piecewith an egg wash for a lovely golden glowExperiment with various mediums on cooked pieces Gouache and acrylics work well but posterpaint is fine (if a little limited in colour variation) and you could try chalks felt tips or crayonsUse glue to add decorations including glitter sequins fabric bows tiny scraps of paper etcIts nice to leave the dough perfectly natural sometimes and sometimes a combination of naturaldough and painted areas works very wellVarnish thoroughly Any varnish will work I tend to use a spray varnish as a first coat to set thepaints then I add a few coats of a super store own brand wood varnish (If you need yourfinished piece to be especially waterproof try yacht varnish but be aware that it will tend tochange the colours making them yellowish)Use a small brush to get into all the nooks and crannies and allow each coat to dry thoroughlybefore applying the next one The more coats you apply the better protected your final pieceHowever unvarnished salt dough I have made for personal use (or the odd forgotten piece) hassurvived very well even in a slightly damp old house So dont let a lack of varnish deter you fromtrying salt dough But if you are creating a family heirloom four or five coats of a good varnish willensure it lasts for yearsTry these two Easter projects the ldquoEgg-stra Specialrdquo eggs are very quick and simple enough to dowith small children the primrose basket takes a while and is a little fiddly but well worth tryingand very easy to adapt by choosing your own flower or perhaps some other motif

~ Egg-stra Special Eggs ~

1 Form an egg shape from a small ball of dough by rolling in your hands and pressthis gently onto your baking tray(Its easier to build your salt dough pieces directly onto the tray you will use tocook them rather than try and move them while they are still uncooked I havebuilt my eggs onto the kitchen surface because it will be easier for you to see whatIm doing)

2 Roll out a piece of salt dough and use it to cover the bottom end of youregg like a blanket When you are happy with the position gently lift andrun a wet paintbrush between the two pieces to glue them together

3 Cut out an egg cup shape around your egg

4 Use a damp paintbrush to push the egg cup onto the eggand ensure it sticks

(A damp paintbrush also helps soften edges and blend any creases or cracks)

5 Uncurl an old metal paperclip and push into the dough to form a hangingloop You can use a piece of any wire I try and use paperclips or a piece of wire

coat-hanger as I like to recycle An alternative hanging method is to create a smallhole (or two holes for larger pieces) and thread a ribbon or piece of leather shoelacethrough the hole tying it to make a loop)

6 Cut out a small bow shape from a piece of flattened dough

7 Cut two ribbon ends from a rectangle of flattened dough

8 Use a wet paintbrush to layer the ribbon ends onto thetop of your egg

9 Attach the bow in position And add a small piece to the centre ofthe bow to finish

10 Cook

11 Decorate in whatever way takes your fancy hellip have fun

~ Primrose Basket ~

1 Cover a bowl in greaseproof paper and turn upside down onto your baking tray

2 Roll out some dough to approx 5mm thickness and cut into thin stripslong enough to cover your bowl

3 Lay four of these strips across the bottom ofyour bowl

4 Begin weaving four in the opposite direction by gently liftingalternate strips out of the way laying the cross strip and replacingthe lifted strips

5 Then add one strip to each side until you reach the edge of the bowl

6 Trim the edge with a knife or fold the stripsback to form a rough bowl lip You can indentsomething on the dough to secure anddecorate

7 Cook

8 Carefully remove the bowl and paper

9 Make primrose flowers and leaves and glue them to the rim with a wetpaintbrush replacing your bowl in the oven for a short whileLeaves ndash cut rough leaf shapes out of a piece of flatted dough and mark theveins and indent the edges with the back of a knifeFlowers ndash use a small heart cutter to cut 5 heart shapes and place on the rim with pointstogether indenting the centre with your fingertip and then marking with the end of a paintbrushPaint with whichever medium you prefer or have to hand I have used acrylics here leaving thebasket natural and painting the primrose leaves green and the flowers yellow adding someorange to the centres of the flowers while the yellow is still damp for a blurred effect

What you will need3 x 10 inch lengths of purple Cylon cord10mm silver plated lobster clasp and clasp tag2 x silver plated fold over necklace endsApprox 24 Rose Quartz gemstone chip beads(holes need to be large enough to thread onelength of the cylon cord though)2 x 4mm silver plated jump rings

Rose Quartz is the stone of unconditionalloveIt purifies and opens the heart helping thewearer to love themselves as well as others

Rose Quartz draws off negative energy andhelps release unexpressed emotions

Encourages self forgiveness and acceptanceaids self trust and self worth

I find it easier to use a macrame board for making this type of bracelet as it make it easier tokeep the design neat but its not essential I use a simple board made from a cork notice boardand pins I also use nylon nosed pliers to fold over the necklace ends as I find metal pliers oftenleave marks but again they arent essential

Step 2 Thread a chip bead onto each of the outer lengths ofcord

Step 3 Cross the outer cordsover the middle one as youwould in a braid Then braid thecords again

Step 1 Attach one of thenecklace ends to one end ofthe three lengths of CyloncordYou can then use the hole inthe end to attach the braceletto your board

Make a Rose Quartz Bracelet

Step 6 Attach the secondnecklace end to the three cordwithout cutting them as it makesit easier The ends can then betrimmed with a craft knife orsharp scissors

Step 7 Using the jump ringsattach the clasp to one end ofthe bracelet and the clasp tagto the other

Step 4 Thread two chip beadson to the new outer lengths ofcord and braid as in the previousstep

Step 5 Repeat step three and four untilthe bracelet reaches seven inchesor your desired length

(The clasp section will measureapproximately one inch)

If the cord ends become frayed they canbe fixed with a little super glue

Step 8 And there you areOne finished rose quartzbracelet

To those who are not yet aware Prince William and Kate Middleton will tie the knot this month onFriday 29th April in a quiet little ceremony at Westminster Abbey To some this may mean getting aday off to celebrate the nuptials or actually attend the whole affair To others like myself who areself-employed there will be no day off and hence little difference from a normal day but we can stillbe happy for the two love birds entering a state of marital bliss for the first timeIn these uncertain economic times I am not sure how the Royal Wedding will affect the economyhow much money will people want to spend Will this mean street parties like those that dominatemany peoplersquos memories from Prince Charles and Dianarsquos wedding back in 1981 Will there be arush to purchase ridiculously crass lsquosouvenirrsquo mugs plates tea towels or will the market just not bethere at all with all the unsold Royal Wedding goods in the pound shops by JuneThe handmade and crafting sector needs to be aware of the sales potential created by this Royalevent and so products should be made available to support the celebrations and possibly make thecountry feel good about itself again Maybe a lovely warm spring day in April will be good for thecountry and make it forget its economic woes for a few hoursWe asked a number of our sellers about their experience of the last big Royal Wedding (Charles andDiana) and what they are going to do this time to celebrate There were mixed feelings ndash manywere too young to remember much about the 1981 event and even though I remember a day offfrom school I cannot remember any street parties or spontaneous Mardi Gras This time around Ithink money will be a big factor and most people will not stray too far from a bit of home baking inred white and blue and also a show of patriotic bunting Union Jacks are quite the lsquoin thingrsquo at themoment for interior design and so a patriotic statement may double as being hip and trendy

Kim Lampard of Zigzag Bunting thinks a great way tocelebrate the Royal Wedding is to make your own buntingShe suggests pulling together a pile of fabrics that you nolonger need but that hold cherished memories for you forexample your daughterrsquos first cute dress a tea-towel youbought on a special holiday an old bedspread made by your

Granny Even if the items are damaged so cannot be passed on to others there is always a littlecorner that can be cut up into a triangle to make a bunting flag Mix a few of these together and ifyou have enough for a colour scheme (such as red white and blue) fine but donrsquot worry the flagsdonrsquot even need to be the same size Sometimes a shabby chic lsquoMix and Matchrsquo approach turns outto be perfect Sew the fabric triangles onto a piece of ribbon or bias tape and you will have awonderful string of bunting to decorate for the special day You and your family will remember notonly the Royal Wedding when you bring out that bunting but have extra glimpses of their past inthe fabrics Definitely a memento to cherish

Gaye Weekes of A amp V Designs now lives in Snowdonia North Wales and onlyan hour away from Anglesey where the Royal couple will begin their marriedlife She has no doubt had that His Highness has been hovering over theirremote valley in his helicopter over recent months Gaye plans to be flying redwhite and green Welsh bunting for the wedding Her bunting is made fromvintage fabric from the 1950s and 1960s - a cotton heavy woven greenand cream floral and a jolly red and white gingham She adds ldquo

Karine Ait-Mohamed of The Pink Fairy Cake isFrench but now lives in England She says ldquo

occasion ldquo

rdquo

Lou Carswell of Loubie Jewels has some prettyfantastic red white and blue jewellery which wouldbe suitable for a Royal wedding celebration She told

us ldquo

rdquo

So what can we gather from these observations It will be a nice idea to celebrate the RoyalWedding If we apply a little lsquowartimersquo austerity (handmade lends itself to recycling andupcycling) we shouldnrsquot have to spend a fortune We can step back from commercialism andbe involved in a low key but meaningful way that will make the event more memorable for itssimplicity and just a little thrift God Bless William and Kate

Tell us about yourself

My name is Sandra Ritchie I live in Cleethorpes UK with my husbandJason my 10 year old daughter Alisha my 2 year old son Alfred andour dog Dumbledore Primarily I am a housewife but in my sparetime I make jewellery of all kinds from beaded pieces to metal workbut mainly I make custom-made bespoke precious metal jewellery

When did your crafting begin and why

Many years ago I studied Jewellery and Metal Art at college andover time Ive collected the tools I needed but never got round tosetting up a workroom until 2009 when my Husband pointed outthat our Utility Room would be perfect for me to set up as aworkroom to start making jewellery again It seemed ideal Ialready had people interested in me making them some jewelleryand it meant I could stay at home and look after the children as wellas try to establish a name for myself as a Jewellery designermaker


The first item I made to sell whilst not specifically to sell online was asilver octopus necklace commissioned by an acquaintance of mine thathad seen the silver octopus necklace that I made for myself whilst atcollege and wanted one like it She has since purchased the silver andcopper entwined Dragon necklace and a commissioned silver Dragonand is back on my list for another piece to be made My number onefan I think


I love all the pieces Ive created especially my Custom work but myfavourite piece of all is the Greenman necklace I was approached tomake something as a surprise for someone and was basically giventhe opportunity to produce something different to my usual pieces Ilove making pieces that are based on peoples ideas of what theywant that is really special but the Greenman necklace was mydesign based on what the customer wanted it to represent I had toteach myself etching for the piece as its something Id never learntand Im really pleased with how it worked out


I love spending time with my children and family I love baking andcooking too and I suppose I should admit to enjoying the oddrelaxing glass (or bottle) of nice wine when the children are in bed

wwwlittlefairycultcouk


In 5 years time Id love to be in a better financial position so I canbuy silver and make silver jewellery to sell that isnt just Custom-made Ive started sneaking a few pieces of precious metal jewellerythat are for general sale onto my site


My inspiration is usually from the customers themselves They tell mewhat it is they want and I design a piece to reflect that Sometimes theyalter the design slightly to reflect more of how they want it and that isfine For my bead jewellery its usually what beads I have in myworkroom that inspire my beaded pieces I very rarely buy beads for thereason that I have a design idea and usually just buy mixed lots of beadsand work with what I have


I really love working with precious metals There is somethinguniquely satisfying about taking a flat sheet of metal and turning itinto a beautiful piece of jewellery Thats why I take pictures of thepieces as I am making them so that other people and the customerwhos item it is can enjoy seeing it progress from a blank piece ofprecious metal into the finished piece


Oh my There are so many amazing websites offering beautiful andunique handmade items but I will always take a look at Etsy to see ifthere is anything that catches my eye on there They have such a largevariety of designerssellers making almost everything but the kitchen sink(though I bet if you looked hard enough youd find one on there) Ireally enjoy the little treasuries they do too where you can browse aselection of items that are grouped together by themes


I have had a lot of support from the good friends I have gained on Twitter and of coursemy real life friends have been extremely supportive too but the main reason I actuallysorted out my workroom (or corner of the utility room) was due to my husband insistingthat I start making jewellery again Luckily his insistence and support paid off virtuallystraight away when a friend asked for the octopus necklace I mentioned earlier to bemade


I have known the sex of each child and whether Id be carrying one or more before I evenconceived them Fairly random but fact nevertheless
