The cheeky little tinkster - handcrafted and recycled jewellery with magic.

This cheeky lil pixie is well up for it, any time of the day or night! The perfect symbol of energy and vibrance to wear and enjoy at any opportunity.

It is meticulously hand cut and shaped using traditional hand tools and techniques. The raw material is an old, neglected antique spoon. These old spoons are no longer desirable in the 'mass market' (although most people i know love this old cutlery!) However, most pieces i use are understandably unwanted as they are generally in poor condition. Perfect doners for being recycled!

The remaining spoon is also worked upon to turn it into a gorgeous object and talking point for the wearer. It also works nicely as a little nest/home for the brooch when it is not being worn!

Original, unique, magical and completely recycled. Handmade in Cambridge.

The new Handmade and recycled Hairy Growler website.

Well we made it to the future, 2010. Twenty Ten sounds good to me. To celebrate such a futuristic sounding year we are living in i have 'knocked up' a new Hairy Growler website. Please all flock to the website. I have made several new changes, including new pieces of jewellery, new and improved images of my work, new categories, a new recycling workshop area, etc.

In addition i am proud to announce that we have a excellent creative writer on board who is going to make attempts to juice up me limited vocab! Stephanie Robinson. Check out her style at www.stephanie.jane.robinson.blogspot.com. To begin with she has re-written the new website intro and we are rather pleased! yipee.

I shall be back soon... i know, barely believable, but there is a nugget of optimism in my typing.
