Halvin the hare

 I’m loving this new adventure 

… and I’m away , I knew the first I wanted to make would be my hare , so I could learn more about texture, working with brass , copper and silver and soldering , each to each other , I’ve also signed up for another 6 weeks ❤️

With my jewellery and my orders coming in , I’m a busy girl !

More Hares to come ! soon



 They are particularly sewn and I just have to assemble 

I have one bear on Etsy … so will do another more the run up to Christmas my last little white rabbit went out this week 


I do love doing these … and I am at that age … and the stage in my life I only do what I want to do LOL 

It’s been 3 years since I gave up making wigs .. I don’t regret that at all 

Now I’m on another adventure… silversmithing

I couldn’t leave it ❤️


I’ve filed it , sanded it , buffed it …added texture with a file 

I’ve learn a lot ..I’ve tried stamping ..some I liked some , I didn’t ,they  were only cheap tools , and you could tell , but I have a few good ones now , 

It’s got it’s faults , but I will know for next time , Paul drilled one of the glass pieces we found I. Lynmouth , which I attached , I’ve added sea green pearls and silk tassel and hung it on a chain …even with its faults , I love it 💙 my Tears of the Sea sun catcher 💙

 


What a buzz !

 I’ve not felt this fired up … for ages 

I was inspired when I found my Lynmouth Sea Glass so did my first class with Sara . Who is AMAZING at Stratford School of Jewellery.. the ring went amazing , with help from Sara as I had no idea what I was doing LOL 

So yesterday I started a 6 weeks course with her … just so happened my first class was just what I wanted to know … the fret saw … omg I loved it 

I have so many ideas 

Paul is taking down the old shed and greenhouse and we are haveing a work room so we can crate together,

This  will be my Tears from the sea , I’m going to add tassels and pearls and a bit of sea glass I think 

I’m not rushing it … Next week we’re doing a silver chain ❤️… I am so exited 

now I have coffee and boots to do now 🤣

Finishing off







 I’ve spent this month so far finishing projects 

My Poor Girls legs came off .. not unusual with this type Susi .. she is waiting on my repairing her .. don’t think I have that elastic , so I’ve tied them on for now and out her in these tights … I adore her face , this girls face is painted differently to my others .. she is my fave … shhhh don’t tell the others 

I’ve absolutely loved this MastetClass from Lisa Pay he’s my favourite bear 💗 love him … my jumper is now finished .. my first fairisle n pure wool … labour of love but I love the end result , 

Kelly’s Travis Memory quilt , never again … I was so nervous about cutting out xxxnever realised how hard these are to make and time consuming lol but I’m happy with the end result and at last … carved sea glass … 

Really happy with those … we have plans ! 

Sleepingelf Silver … has a ring to it
