Hiyaaa! Welcome to my website and the a little bit about me section. Like every other creative person, I would call myself a passionate and creative individual, who loves to experiment and venture with new techniques and designs. Give me a challenge, and I'll jump to it, (yes, I am a Leo after all!).
After studying abroad in Kansas State University, USA with a really good friend of mine (cool, I know), and graduating with a BA Hons in Ceramics and Jewellery from UWTSD, Carmarthen in 2014, I have continued to practice jewellery making using mainly sterling silver, some copper elements, (copper and silver is SUCH a combo) using mainly old, but some new techniques too. I try using various materials such as copper, enamel, sea glass and semi-precious gem stones- I told you, I just love a challenge.
I am forever experimenting and creating up some funky, unique designs but am always delighted to make personal pieces including keep sakes, wedding jewellery, memorial jewellery including ashes-glass, and personalised gifts for friends and family, especially when it involves using the Welsh language and names. Check out my instagram (where I post quite regularly-competitions, giveaways and all sorts!), and sometimes on Facebook for any cool gemstones that I may be working with, or to get some inspiration or your next 'treat yourself' gift!
I am based in Llanelli town centre, along side Y Ty Celf- which I am also a director of. We are a community, self run company providing a safe space for emerging artists to exhibit and sell their work, hold exhibitions, and teach workshops. We are also growing into a creative hub for the community, where we are holding grant funded workshops in aid of supporting a safe space for people to come and experiment and learn new skills; we are closely working with Mind charity, Foothold, Pobl, Platfform and various Dementia groups. Our main focus is to ensure that everyone is welcome to come and create while being their authentic selves in a safe space!! My room is based upstairs of Y Ty Celf and if you’d like to arrange a chat with myself about a possible order-please email to arrange this.
