A little sneaky sneaky at the earrings I made to match the blue Labradorite necklace. The customer requested I match the beads along the chain, and I also mirrored the moon motif. A happy quick and easy commission. ☺️ #jewellery #designermaker #handmade

I make jewellery with animal/nature themes, rooted in childhood memory.

I was SO pleased to finally wave off this lush necklace last week. 😍

OK, so I said the revamp was gonna take a week... in actuality, it's taken more like a solid month of DIY, throwing paint around, filling wall holes, and evicting spiders. But now it feels like an entirely different space 👌 Still things to do of course, but we'll get there!

This is my workshop right now. The ceiling is repaired, new lights have been installed, the walls are getting a fresh coat of white, and we built a new bench. It's taken an age (a week) but the revamp is almost done!

Finger splints! I just went a blimmin made myself one. It's more comfortable than I imagined...! Still got to clean it up and polish, but it's a start 👌 #hypermobile #jeweller #hypermobilemaker

Sometimes I feel very silly. I've been pricing up how much it would be to upgrade my earring stands and worrying about the expense... when I could have just made my own the whole damn time. 🙄🤦‍♀️ I forget that I can actually MAKE things other than jewellery 🤣

Oops... my borax cone has had enough of my abuse. I mean, I have been using it since 2014-ish, so it's allowed to give up on me I guess. #JewellerLife #Makersgonnamake

I'll be at the Leicester Guildhall Summer Craft Fair this weekend; Saturday 28th. We are open from 10am till 5pm and I'll have my usual array of shinies to tempt visitors 💎🌟 Do visit if you can! If Jewellery isn't your thing, there's a great selection of crafts, art and food to discover too.

🎉 A date for the diary! 🎉
I'm very pleased to say that I'll be exhibiting at the upcoming Attenborough Arts craft fair on the 3rd of May! I'll be bringing my usual selection of goodies, along with a few new things, hopefully! This is a new fair for me, so please do come along if you can!

Most of the way through already! 😱 Might I actually complete it this year?!

Day 10 of #MarchMeetTheMaker is WHERE. Where can you buy my jewels? Exclusively from my website! (For now at least!) And at some craft fairs during the summer months. I'll announce here as soon as I know which ones I'll be popping up at! #jeweller #makersgonnamake

#MarchMeetTheMaker day 6! ⚒️ Tools and Materials ⚒️
I've got a whole workshop full of tools... but the ones I use the most are still my trusty hand tools! A saw, tweezers, a hammer, and my pendant motor. (Which is a weird cross between a fancy dremmel and a dentists drill 🤣)
March 15, 2025 at 9:16 AM
As you can probably tell, I don't use a whole load of colour... but maybe that'll change in the future! #jeweller #makersgonnamake #maker

And there's a new piece taking shape on the bench this week. Almost there... #jeweller #designermaker

New things are finally emerging from the depths of the workshop... oooOOooo

And if you want a closeup of some of those influences... I got you! My battered copy of Watership Down and I are very happy to welcome everyone into my weird little world for a bit 🤣🐰

It's #MarchMeetTheMaker day 1 today; so I've put a reel up on Insta/TikTok 👌 I'm not sure if I can share it here... I might have to do a whole new post just for Blue-sky! You lucky things... 🤣

Workshop fit today; Am I reverting to childhood? A little bit! Do I care? Not a smidge 👌🤣

It's BALTIC in the workshop this morning. My fingers are so cold I can hardly hold anything. Let's hope my little heater starts to make it more bareable soon! 🥶🥶🥶 #jewelleryworkshop

So, this time of year is taken up with lots of applications for fairs, which isnt particulally blog worthy. But, I'm also planning some workshop renovations. I moved into this workshop two years ago now, in a rush. So it kinda just got thrown in.

Hello! 😍✨️ I'm Rachael, and I make jewellery entirely from scratch in my home workshop! I'm hugely influenced by British wildlife, life cycles, and dualities. I also really appreciate some good rocks 👌
February 6, 2025 at 8:08 AM
❤️🎉 Awesome! I'm a jeweller from the UK! Making shiny things from sterling silver ✨️
