Cute little fairies - handmade and repurposed

A beautiful and simple brooch hand pierced from the 'bowl' of an old, negelected antique dessert spoon.The gorgeous little fairy is sketched on the spoon and then cut, drilled, filed and polished. The final result is quite lovely. The brooch as a simple and effective locking catch on the reverse. Completely green, ethcial, original and whimsically beautiful.

Handcrafted and recycled in Cambridge, UK

Hairy Growler



Cambridge All saints art and craft market skills demo.


Its been a while! Will i form a new habit? sadly i no this not to be possible! Anything that even barely resembles a routine or pattern i shy away from, procrastinating always. However, i have just finished this lovely tree brooch for a customer and i am really pleased with it! If you even order a brooch and fancy the spare part of the spoon its always worth asking as i may be able so send it with the brooch, for added interest! Especially so if you are reading this. Its the least i can do!!
I really appreciate the comments and emails i get about my jewellery, website and even this blog! its nice. Its great getting to talk to you and type to you. This weekend at the All saints art and craft market a few of us are doing bits and pieces to show how we create the things we are into. So that should be quite cool. I will be bashing and cutting old spoons and forks that people bring me in an effort to transform them into something they might want! I will try my cross eyed best!
On the Hairy Growler front I am in the process of turning some lush silver coins into gorgeous tree pendants. So far they are looking nice and shiny.
At this very moment i am filling my ears with The Moldy Peaches and Kimla Dawson, so i will continue to work and maybe go to bed in the morning. Thats how it works sometimes. Other times i cant make myself jump the threshold!
