Each day it's possible to hear the birds singing that little bit louder and with more enthusiasm as it warms up around here. And that leads me to starting thinking of the beach. Sadly as Pixie my foster dog is a terrible traveller, I'll not be able to go to my favourite local beach anytime soon, but I do get to play with my finds stacked up in the studio. Here's a recent listing in my Etsy shop - a rock pool pendant I made from a limpet ring and featuring bright pink and dark purple seaweed and pretty micro shells encased in eco-friendly resin. Available at The Creaking Door. . . . #limpetring #limpetshellnecklace #rockpools #rockpoolpendant #limpetshell #ecofriendlyjewelry #sustainablejewelry #pressedseaweed #periwinkle #clamshell #urchinshell #ecofriendlyresin #britishbeaches #seaweed #seaweedart #beachnecklace #surfnecklace https://www.instagram.com/p/CqBFkdfoLZ8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Everything is moving by in a slight blur at the moment. It’s the magic of Christmas I guess. It’s been a busy few weeks for this little caravan Elf and I’m looking forward to cosying up next to the log burner, mince pie in hand and a wee port for good measure in less than a weeks time. I’m the meantime, I’m still shipping until Tuesday 21st normal post and up till 23rd Special Delivery.

It’s November 5th and we know what that means. That’s right, it’s our wedding anniversary and this evening the UK will organise a coordinated firework display in our honour. Sadly, living in the middle of nowhere on a hill, we’ll unlikely see their spectacular endeavours (and our dogs will appreciate another quiet night in) but it’s comforting to know the night sky will light up in parts of the country for us. In other news, I’m working hard updating the shop with some ocean treasures including this rustic rockpool resin picture necklace featuring tiny shells, seaweed and starfish in a verdigris patina limpet shell that has been electroformed in copper. . . . #rockpool #rockpoolnecklace #limpet #limpetshell #limpetshellnecklace #oceanjewelry #holidaymemories #giftforher #christmasgifts #festivegifts #onlinechristmasshopping #madeinuk🇬🇧 (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHNDCNuBEvF/?igshid=1mheipn57wwnw

Getting a bit grumpy with the setting up (and accidentally knocking over) of all the bits and bobs required to make videos for Etsy. On the other hand, I’m pretty happy with my car boot sale nab at the weekend, a tiny angel fish 🐠 made by Wade as a part of Wade Whimsies which originally came free with Red Rose tea in the 1970’s. He cost just £1.00 and he makes me smile. 😊. . . . Listing soon, but not quite there yet, limpet shell rock pool pendant featuring purple scallop shell, miniature pink sea-snail and an assortment of pink, claret and white seaweed. Embedded in crystal clear resin and finished in fine silver. DM me if it speaks to you and you’d like to reserve it before I list it. . . #wade #wadewhimsies #angelfish #seaweed #rockpool #seashell #shell #limpetshell #limpetring #rockpoolnecklace #limpetshellnecklace #oceanfloor #nauticalstyle (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCqtY4xhOma/?igshid=n1qy0p8qkadx

Judging by the trail of water through the house and the damp patch on our sofa, I think our dog Eva may have just accidentally fallen in the pond. I only realised she was wet through when she just jumped off the couch. Poor thing! I’ve given her a rub down with a towel and she’s now back up here with me in blankets to get warm. Who knows how that happened!? 🤷‍♀️. Talking of pools of water, here is a #rockpool necklace I made, featuring a #limpetshell ring that sets the scene for some underwater treasures, like burgundy #seaweed and #shells. . . . #shellnecklace #floatinglocket #ecofriendly #bioresin #seashells #rockpoolnecklace #limpetshellnecklace #memoriesofthesea #underwaterscenes #bottomoftheocean (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7jfeUDBQk-/?igshid=5vjg2kqpswdp
