Handmade Resin Jewellery and Home Decor

I started out making jewellery for myself several years ago and soon became addicted.  I am self taught having attended a number of jewellery classes working with silver, wire work and beading. 

I took up a resin workshop not knowing if it would be a technique I particularly liked but quickly found I loved the media so much that it has become my main focus.

I use a variety of creative techniques whilst working with resin and am always exploring and learning new ones.  My love of resin has now expanded into home decor pieces including bookmarks and coasters and has now developed into a new passion working with Jesmonite.  

Jesmonite is an eco-friendly  composite material using gypsum powder (a soft mineral also used in chalk and plaster of paris) and liquid acrylic resin which creates lovely smooth, tactile, modern looking pieces.

All pieces have been made by myself in my studio at home.  The nature of resin and jesmonite means no one piece can be identical.

Even if the intention is to create a particular design at the outset different patterns and textures emerge as the resin flows and settles, or as the Jesmonite is coloured and poured, which is all part of the appeal.

Resin is colourful, fun and versatile.  It works just as wonderfully as a piece of fashion jewellery, whether you wish to dress up or down, take with you on your holidays or accessorise with the latest seasonal colour, as it does transformed into a unique finishing touch for the home.  Jesmonite is modern and contemporary, can be bold or delicate and gives a unique statement jewellery piece or addition to your home.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my work.
