A little bit of sofa doodling on a lazy Friday night. I just started with some circles and ovals and waited to see where it went. Happy weekend 😀 Hannah x

I spend hours trying to make my jewellery as perfect as possible but this week I needed something a little less structured. I've spent many happy hour learning how to use my @primamarketinginc water-soluble oil pastels. . Ooh, I've had so much fun. . I've made a blog post discussing all the tips and techniques I discovered along the way. First link in my linktree... . What do you turn to when you need a change? . #oilpastels #oilpastelart #mixedmedia #mixedmediaart #mixedmediaartist #mixedmediajournal #artblog

Hands up, who's ready for spring? 🙋‍♀️🌸🌱🐣 . My newest blog tutorial is a pretty spring flower necklace made from translucent polymer clay and alcohol inks. . It's the first link in my linktree 🔗 . I also have a new mailing list pop up so if you want to keep up to date with things I'd be very happy if you signed up for it. It's a bit of a work in progress but I'll get there 😁 . #polymerclaytutorial #polymerclayartist #polymerclayjewellery #polymerclaynecklace #jewelleryblogger #jewelrydesigner #indiejewelry #jewelerymaking

Following on from yesterday's post where we discussed big and small danglies I thought I'd post my earring of choice today 😆 I'd say they are medium dangles but super lightweight. . Leopard print and stripes - why not. . What's your earring choice today? . #indiejewelry #leopardprint #polymerclayearrings #polymerclayjewellery #earringsoftheday #earringsaddict #statementearrings #etsyseller #polymerclayartist

I've just asked a very important question on stories - does size matter? I am, of course, talking about earrings 😆 I never know how big to make them so I always make several different shapes and sizes. What's your preference for ear adornment? . #indiejewelry #polymerclayjewellery #polymerclayartist #polymerclayearrings #etsyseller #earringsoftheday #statementearrings

Oh, I wish could bead this fast. A slower version of this heart brick stitch tutorial is now on my YouTube and blog. All the links in bio..... . #beadweaving #beadweavingpatterns #brickstitchjewellery #brickstitch #beadingtutorials

A little free beadweaving tutorial to start the week. Happy beading ❤️😍❤️ . Link in my linktree . #beadweaving #beadweavingpatterns #diyjewelry #diyjewelrymaking #diyjewellery #brickstitch #beadingtutorials #freebeadingpattern #seedbeadjewelry

Is it a peach, is it an orange or, indeed, is it an apple? 🤔😂🍑🍏 . Does it even matter because I had fun? Another random sketchbook drawing using posca pens and a little oil pastel over the top. The oil pastel brings out the texture of the watercolour paper which I really like. . Happy Friday folks. . The answer is peaches for anyone interested but my daughter thought orange😆 . #sketchbookdrawing #emergingartist #oilpastel #poscapens #paintpens #drawingoftheday #colourfun #playingwithpaint #foodillustration #ihavethisthingwithcolour

I've been feeling quite blah about my posting to Instagram recently. I used to have so much fun with it but I'm lucky these days if only a handful of people see my posts. I'm guessing it's the change in algorithm that I've seen mentioned but it could just be that my pictures aren't pretty enough! . I ended up on Google to see if it could shed some light and the answer was that I needed to curate my grid somehow so that everything thing was cohesive and visually pleasing at a quick glance. Also, post consistently with only a few well chosen # and research before posting to see which # would be best. That, my friends, seems like an awful lot of work. . So here I am, with an oil pastel impromptu sketch book page, trying to have fun with Instagram. It's not jewellery related in the slightest and will no doubt throw all (if I had any to start with) aesthetics of my grid out the Instagram window! I feel like such a rebel 😆 Who's with me?! . #sketchbook #oilpastel #modernlandscape #modernabstract #emergingartist #drawingoftheday #sketchbookdrawing

Roses are red, violets are blue...... That's all I've got, what about you? That kind of rhymes, doesn't it? I'm a natural poet, obviously 😁 New roses jewellery listed in my Etsy store and, guess what, it's perfect for Valentine's Day and Mother's Day! It's like I planned it...... . . . #jewellerylover #jewelleryoftheday #valentinesgifts #indiejewelry #madeinnottingham #etsyseller #redroses #nottinghamcreatives #indienotts

I pushed myself with this jewellery collection to step out of my dainty comfort zone. I also watch a lot of the great British bake off so I think this necklace is very inspired by Prue Leith. It's also a great 2 for 1 because if you are a polymer clay artist I have a tutorial on my blog for the cane work (super simple) and if you love jewellery then it's all listed in my Etsy shop! #jewelrydesigner #jewelleryoftheday #jewelleryblogger #etsyseller #indiejewelry #polymerclayjewellery #polymerclaytutorial #jewelrylover #jewellerylover
