Silver Jewellery Girl
~ Learning & Making Jewellery Together ~ One of the things that I've wanted to experiment with is crocheting with wire, so today, I'm bringing you my first ever attempt! Using 28g copper wire, and a 2mm crochet needle, I tried to make a 3D copper flower. I'll be honest, it didn't come out the way I expected! It's definitely harder to get the right gauge with wire than yarn, so this flower came out a lot bigger than I had expected. Now I need to decide what to do with it - statement necklace, cuff, brooch? Perhaps you can give me some suggestions in the comments! Subscribe to my channel for more jewellery making videos!

~ Learning & Making Jewellery Together ~ Happy International Women's Day! My daughter belongs to an amazing Brownies group, along with three other girls. They have a great time every week, learning about different crafts and life skills. Well, this term, they've been learning about jewellery - different kinds of jewellery, jewellery from different cultures and most importantly, how you make it! Over the past few weeks, they've been at the workshop learning to make copper rings! They are so inspiring and I'm so proud of them all - none of them have ever done metal smithing before. In a few supervised sessions, they have managed to anneal their copper, texture it, solder the join and shape the ring on a mandrel! (I've done some preparation and tidy up, here and there!). They're a group of bright, curious girls and I can't wait to see what the future holds for them all! Check out their beautiful rings! Subscribe to my channel for more jewellery making videos!

~ Learning & Making Jewellery Together ~ Father Christmas brought me this EF Color enamel powder set this year, and I *finally* got a chance to try it out! It turned out it was super easy, and only requires use of your kitchen oven (no need for a torch or kiln!)... my first attempt wasn't perfect, but it was fun! If you're looking for something to make with kids (under supervision), or an easy but beautiful birthday / Valentines' / Mother's Day gift, this could be the way to go! (I'm not affiliated with EF Color and am not promoting the product. It was just a gift I received for Christmas!)

~ Learning & Making Jewellery Together ~ Welcome to our first instalment of the Monthly Artisan Spotlight in 2022! Each month, we showcase the work of 3 handmade jewellery artisans. Each jeweller lovingly designs, creates and handcrafts these stunning pieces of jewellery, using age-old techniques and we'd love for you to see them! This month, we are featuring: ~ La Vie ZoEm ~ Zoe says: "La Vie ZoEm Jewellery is built on the love of the creative and how jewellery can reflect the individual. I have been making jewellery for over 10 years and in that time I have tried to make pieces that I love and hope that others will too. I have arrived at a place where I now make bespoke pieces of jewellery to represent the client. I love making a piece that is unique to that person and is a reflection of self, handcrafted with care. Whether I take an old piece of jewellery that is sat in a drawer somewhere hoping to be worn and make it into a loved piece again or create a piece from new materials, I treat every piece with the same care and attention because I know how much it means to the client."

~ Learning & Making Jewellery Together ~ Happy 2022! Alright, I'm a bit nervous about this video as it's my first time making a vLog... and no, I'm still not ready to go on-screen yet! But to shake things up a bit, I thought I'd give you a little look into some of my on-going projects and the work I do to get my videos ready! After Christmas, I took a week off work to focus on making jewellery (and just a time-out for myself!)... here's what I got up to! In this video, you'll get a sneak preview of some of the things I've been doing like experimenting with crocheting copper wire (yes, with a regular crochet needle!), preparing to teach a Brownies group, a bit of wire wrapping and my first time using enamel! Stay tuned for full-length videos on some of these, too! Check out my latest video, "How NOT to Fire Silver Clay": https://youtu.be/jh-n_yy2GFk Did you watch "All That Glitters" earlier in the year?

I still dread changing my jeweller’s saw blade! So I always run through some checks to make sure I’ve done it right: - Are the teeth on the blade pointing out of the frame? - If I run my finger along the blade, do the teeth cut on the down stroke? - Does the blade have the right tension? E.g. does it ping?! And to achieve the right tension, I lean the top of the blade against the bench and put all my weight behind the handle when I tighten the bottom screw. I don’t know if there are better ways of doing this, but it works for me!
~ Learning & Making Jewellery Together ~ I recently tried silver metal clay for the first time. Since I don't own a kiln, I opted to fire the clay with my butane torch. And of course, I didn't do nearly enough research into how to fire the clay properly and melted my piece. So I thought I'd show you how wrong I got it, so that perhaps you can avoid making the same mistakes as me. (I did just about manage to salvage the piece and you can see the finished result in my video "Making a Silver Clay Unicorn Charm for the 1st Time" - https://youtu.be/yoSw4Nft8Wc) Subscribe to my channel for more jewellery making videos!

Have you ever read a jewellery book and been confused how to open a jump ring? I have! Here’s a quick video to show you how to open a jump ring without warping the shape!
Here’s a great way to use some leftover Christmas wrapping paper! It’s a great kids’ activity, too! Getting ready for my daughter’s Brownies group to take over my workshop 😂
