This year, I have decided to take on the March Meet The Maker challenge. It runs for the whole of March, and the idea is to post on Instagram every day, following the prompts that the creator Joanne Hawker has posted. This is really going to be a challenge! But also loads of fun. I […]
Farewell, Jewellers Academy…it’s a sad day. My subscription has run out! And although they offered a half price renewal, I just don’t have the money. It ain’t there. But I think that at some point, maybe next year, I will really splash out and do a Diploma with Jessica Rose and the crew, because wow, […]
Warning: not even slightly seaglass or jewellery-related… Apparently Clap for Carers started up again last week as Clap for Heroes – I didn’t know, and I don’t think my village partook this time around. There are less of us than in the first lockdown, because the second-home owners don’t find it as appealing in January […]
I have been making seaglass and silver jewellery for ten years now, since I moved from Cornwall back home to Wales. It’s grown from a hobby to a side hustle, and now it’s time to really let the business fly. I’ve got so many ideas and plans buzzing around in my head, and I just […]
Hidden Treasures now stocks Surfergirl’s Seaglass! I was so excited and happy to be asked to stock my jewellery in this new gift shop in Cardigan. They are selling lovely stuff, from local artwork to candles, CBD bath bombs, herbal teas, homewares, cushions, cards and so much more… Check out their Facebook page and please […]
My latest creations are stacks of seaglass threaded onto silver wire…these are ready for chain now, and I am actually going to keep one for myself this time! When I search Pinterest for ‘back chain’ or ‘back necklace’ I get lots of wedding jewellery…but I love having a dangle at the nape of my neck, […]
I’ve had this pair of earrings (left) for years, but never seen anything else quite like them on sale. A friend asked me to make her a pair, so I set about working out how to do it. As usual, it wasn’t quite as straightforward as I thought! So I decided to do my first […]
The surf was great today – light offshores and 3ft plus of clean waves rolling in. Once again I’m not well enough to enjoy it – but I did enjoy watching from the warmth of the pub! The pic is taken when it had dropped off quite a lot. Busy making new jewellery for the […]
This summer, I worked with an awesome group of local women to open Sea & Slate Gallery in Llangrannog. Its runaway success is why the Etsy shop and this website have been quiet – I am having trouble making enough jewellery to keep up with demand! Needless to say I am flippin’ delighted with this! […]
I went into hospital for a day last week, the culmination of a period of awfulness which I won’t dwell on as it was also the grossest thing ever, which no-one needs the details of… Since then I’ve been trying to get on the beach every day, and do some yoga every day, for the […]
