Julie Frahm - Glass Jewellery

I haven’t been at @tartscollective for a while so it’s nice to be here today! I have topped up the flower sticks so there are lots to choose from. Open 7 days/week.

My Etsy shop is open again! I have returned from an amazing trip to Japan and looking forward to getting on the torch again! So many moments of inspiration along the way.

Just wanted to say a big thank you to my mandarine tree for giving me all of the little twigs that feature in the flower stick vases. I spray the twigs with silver to give them a little extra sparkle. As a mandarine tree, it wasn’t great! But as a feature twig provider, it’s doing a great job!

The other day I tried to find an old necklace that I thought I had in my collection and ended up finding all sorts of old beads and pieces! Mixed in with some of my more recent beads I think this necklace will be the perfect necklace to travel with as it has all of my current clothes colours in it! Don’t forget orders in my Etsy shop close in just a few days.

Heads up. I am temporarily closing my Etsy Shop while I have a bit of a holiday. Last day to place orders will be Monday April 7. I will reopen the shop on Monday April 28.

My window exhibition at @tartscollective ended last night and I had a lovely time re-doing my display there. A big refresh of necklaces and earrings, and my flower sticks and vases are now part of my display too. I am so grateful for the opportunity to push myself to do something different. Thank you to everyone who visited during Mad March in Adelaide. I appreciate all the lovely messages I received and blown away by all the support for my work.

A mix of champagne, wine and gin bottles went in to making this green recycled glass bead necklace.

I am getting some recycled glass necklaces ready for @tartscollective at the moment. They will be there from Sunday when I pack up my window display! I have had a colourful month in the window and really loved all the feedback I received on my new flower sticks. They will be part of my display at T’Arts going forward, so if you ever need any, that’s where you will find them.

Next Saturday, come and visit the Makers Market as part of the Fringe Festival in Murray Bridge. I will be bringing some new flower sticks and vases, along with some jewellery. Hope to see you there!

I really enjoyed talking to people at @tartscollective on Saturday about the glass flower sticks. Blue has been such a popular colour that people are choosing and most of the people were putting them in blue bottles and jars that they have collected over the years. I loved this idea. I have a bunch of test flowers sitting on the windowsill in my kitchen in an old vase I bought when I first started working!
