I create these pieces using a mixture of vintage and new buttons and beads. I use wire to intricately stitch the pieces together.
I use 2 different methods to finish them.
Beaded wire
I attach the encrusted piece to a special wire which I thread beads onto. The wonderful thing about these neck pieces is that you do not have a clasp, they hold around your neck beautifully. You can run, jump, hop and they wont fall off!
Ribbon
I can also stitch the encrusted piece onto ribbon. I usually use 2 or 3 different complimenting ribbons, stitched together.
Prices
£12-£20
Jewellery
I make a range of contemporary costume jewellery for people like me. I love colour and love creating gorgeous pieces which show a great fusion of colour and texture.
Every piece of jewellery is a one off. Although I can produce pieces very similar, I pride my designs on being totally unique. I try to include something vintage or found in every piece of jewellery, so there is no way it can be reproduced!
I am happy for you to send me any sentimental or special buttons, beads or pieces of jewellery, and I will incorporate them into the design, to make the piece even more special.
