And so many ideas for new jewels that my hands can't keep up!


Here's what I added to the shop yesterday...


The *Star of Morocco* Earrings in Tangerine

and...


The *Beauty of Arabesque* Ring in Turquoise

...this ring was inspired by the Bab El-Mansour, or 'Gate of Victory' in Meknes...

Amazing, isn't it!

I've been working so much that I keep running out of silver...


and solder :-{


But that's a good problem to have...


opening my Etsy shop has given me a renewed sense of purpose,


an extra reason to leap out of bed in the morning


and front the day head-on...


with a smile :-D


Wishing you a creative, fulfilling week my friends!

My Creative Space...

I hate wasting metal,

particularly as the price of silver keeps going up and up.

So, the question arose about what to do with the centre I sawed out from my *Moroccan Trinkets* motifs...

The answer?


Make Moroccan Charm Bangles!

Simple and sweet,


and guaranteed to sing a tune every time you move!


I wish I could take all of the credit for these,


but I did have a little help from my apprentice...

He's very enthusiastic!

To see what other creative people are up to, head over to Kootoyoo

P.S.  Don't forget to enter my giveaway!

A giveaway, just for you...

This giveaway isn't really about me,

it's about you...

You who have supported me,

encouraged me,

inspired me.

You who have made me smile,

made me laugh,


made my heart so full that I feel it will burst.

You who have followed my journey with gentle words,

and open arms,


and infinite enthusiasm.

So to celebrate the next milestone in this journey,
(I cannot believe I opened my Etsy shop yesterday...this feels like a dream...)


which I would never have reached had it not been for you,


I have a giveaway...just for you.

This sweetly simple hollow form necklace...


Handcrafted from sterling silver,


shaped and formed,


and given a deep patina.

It has an olde worlde feel about it.


It could be something that your mother handed down to you,


and her mother handed down to her.


It is a little piece of me,


made with attention to detail...

and a lot of love ♥


My gift to you!
