Hello and welcome to my blog.
My name is Hannah and I am a jewellery designer and maker living in Nottingham, England with my husband, two children and one very cheeky rescue cat.
I have tried many different crafts and styles of jewellery making but I have a particular love for working with polymer clay and bead weaving. I am now fortunate enough to write tutorials for Bead and Jewellery Magazine, I have written online tutorials for Beads Direct and my work has been featured in Mollie Makes magazine. Alongside my tutorial work I run an Etsy and Redbubble shop and sell my jewellery locally at fairs and in shops.
I am also an Illustrator with a tendency to lean towards whimsical and magical artwork.
I my spend most days dreaming of new projects fuelled by many cups of tea, chocolate and audio books.
Thank you for visiting my blog and I hope to see you again soon.

Like the shine in her eyes 🙂
Thank you. Took me a while to figure out how to make eyes look shiny 🙂
Cool, have any tips to share? 🙂
Little touches of white gel pen across the pupils and a shadow under the upper lash line 😃 Makes all the difference. Do you have a ‘follow’ button on your blog? I’ve had a quick look on my phone but can’t see it (only email sign up)
I think my plugin add-ons made it disappear 😦
Oh no! I’m just getting my kids fed so I’ll try to have a look on my laptop later 🙂
This is cool. Do you leave white space for the highlighted areas in her hair, or do you add white after colouring all of it black first?
Thank you. I left the white areas white. I’ve never found a white pen opaque enough to cover all that black ink.
Wow,that’s cool. I find it really hard to leave white gaps that look good
Close up it can look a bit odd but if I stand back it looks OK 😆
I agree, good white gaps are hard to do.
I don’t always manage it! 😆
