Bird Earrings

Bird Earrings

One of the creative challenges we set for our exhibition was “Mexican Folk Art” which is very colourful and incorporates beautiful motifs like flowers and birds. I chose to focus on birds. This pair of earrings features the test beads I made to see if my idea would work or not. I used clear glass for these birds, added some smashed up glass for colour, and then added colourful wings. Wait til you see all the other colourful pieces I have made with bird beads! Exhibition with @tangerinemeg is on for most of June at @tartscollective in Adelaide.

Wishing for a little magic…

glass beads

Wishing I could say “abracadabra” and all of these beads would magically turn themselves into beautiful pieces of jewellery! With less than 2 weeks to go until I set up for my exhibition at @tartscollective, I am feeling like I need something magic to happen to get it all done! Breathe in 🧚

Native flower inspiration

Sharing some of the inspiration and the start of some finished earrings for my upcoming window display/exhibition at @tartscollective. It’s easy to be inspired by the native flora in my local area, with little splashes of colour popping up in lots of the trees that I see on my daily walk. A beautiful mix of greens, pinks, yellows, browns. I wanted to use that mix of colours in the jewellery I am making, with little splashes of colour in the beads.
