Every now and then you gotta blow your own trumpet, and now is the time! Here are a few of my personal faves which I have created:
Because...the swirly blue spheres of lapis lazuli look like mini planets or beautiful night skies.
I've been on a vintage trip lately and have scoured some great online stores to find you these gems!


These super feminine and elegant earrings from Pequitobun are vintage personified! All vintage findings mixed with 14K gold and pretty pink and blue glass beads. Perfect for the warm weather here in Durbs where it's never really winter!

I'm off for a well earned break, Ciao for now!

Surfing the net today I stumbled across some really great eye candy which I just had to share! In no particular order, I would love the following delivered to me on a chocolate coated platter:
Almost Famous set of prints

These rings by Anne Maa Designs look good enough to eat! I couldn't decide on a favourite so I chose a few.

I finally finished my new website, sat back and and admired it's beauty for a brief few seconds but then decided it was (already) time to make some changes. I found the previous home page too cluttered and lengthy so thought I would clean it up a bit, get rid of excess pixels and make it more minimal. I am pretty happy with the results though who knows how long it'll be before I'm ripping it to shreds again! I also decided a separate news page was called for to keep everybody up to date with my ever changing mind.
For all you British and American folk who pay a bit more for shipping, do not despair! If you spend R700 or more on any items you will recieve free shipping! How cool is that? There are also some specials to get you in the spending mood so please take a look by clicking on the specials link on the home page.
I'm always open to peoples opinions of my jewellery and would love some feedback, ideas, even constructive criticism, so I have added a comments section at the bottom of each of my item pages. Please stop by and tell me what you think.
I have been working on some new designs incorporating some gorgeous stones which I recently ordered and I will be adding them very soon so keep your eyes peeled! These pieces will be part of my autumn/winter range and will be more natural, chunky and minimalist, not to mention colourful. Great for cheering you up during the winter months!

After many months, blood, sweat and tears my new online shop Cocoon Jewellery is officially open! I have put my skills of jewellery making and graphic design together (as well as help from my genius boyfriend) to come up with a website which, I think, is fresh, fun and user friendly. I can't begin to tell you how excited I am as this has been a dream of mine for many years now.
Please go and take a look and make the most of my opening specials or just have a browse and leave a comment.
