Thank you so much to everyone who’s been sending me photos and videos of blue banded bees 🐝
I’m absolutely loving seeing them all — and I still hope I’ll spot one in real life one day.

They’ve sold out on Etsy and at @tartscollective, but don’t worry… I’m back in the studio making more. I’ll be releasing a special new batch of earrings (and a few other pieces) on Etsy on January 10, and I’ll also be taking some with me to T’Arts when I’m working there on January 11.

In the meantime, enjoy this beautiful water lily that popped up in my pond today 💛 💙

A massive thank you to everyone who shopped at @tartscollective this festive season. I was blown away when I went in today to drop off my jewellery for the annual Sale Table. I am so grateful for all the times you choose to buy things made by me. I just wanted to let you know that I managed to find a bunch of earrings and necklaces that are now available on the sale table. Most of the earrings are just $25. Necklaces are $50 or $60. I hope you get a chance to visit at some stage.

Had to share my new creations. Blue banded bees!! I sold quite a few of these at the market yesterday. I loved how people smiled when they saw them and the conversations we had about seeing them in the wild. It’s on my bucket list to see one in real life now!

I am always pleasantly surprised and slightly overwhelmed by the Christmas rush. Every year I am blown away that people are choosing to give my jewellery to people they love! It got a bit busy at @tartscollective while I was there yesterday, so today I have gone through my stash of beads and made 4 really pretty (in my opinion) necklaces! I am heading away for a break with my family tomorrow morning and will drop them off on my way. Then I will be back for the market in Lobethal on Saturday, where I will have lots of earrings and flower sticks to choose from.

Having a lovely day at @tartscollective today. I changed a few things on my display and happy to see what’s been selling here.
