I have always been a self-confessed magpie and have had a long love affair with jewellery and colour. I needed to find was a way of incorporating them into everyday jewellery that made you smile when you wore it.

I love the way that light dances through glass bringing it to life. So having been searching for the "thing that makes your heart sing" I discovered lampworking, and my love affair with jewellery and colour changed direction. I enrolled on a course with "Jazzy Lilly" and was hooked.

I then found that needed to source unusual beads and clasps, and so I discovered Silversmithing, which then lead to more silversmithing and, I have recently finished an Art Clay course to make bespoke findings that enhance my beads.
