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=

I seem to have reached that age when I'm going to need orthopaedic insoles for my shoes! Waaaaahhhh! 😭 A trip to the podiatrist on Thursday will confirm if I have suspected Plantar Fasciitis in my left foot, so no more barefoot Zumba for me. And my Dr Martens are also being retired... for now. Gonna have to get those boring boomer New Balance trainers out of the cupboard. Next stop...elasticated jeans? 😂... Still I'm feeling young at heart! Here's a cheerful little Rock Pool pendant I put together recently featuring some of my mermaid finds from beachcombing, including that beautiful bright pink seaweed that looks like big red trees in the background. All framed in a limpet ring and captured in eco-friendly resin. Available in my Etsy shop. . . . #rockpool #rockpoolpendant #limpetring #limpetshell #shelljewelry #ecofriendlyresin #pinkseaweed #seaweedpressing #botanicalnecklace #herbariumjewelry #terrariumnecklace #handmadeintheuk #lincolnshirehandmade https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl1WUKMtjdK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Thank you to all my North American friends who has visited my little shop for Small Business Saturday today. It's generous of you to support my hand-made endeavours and I'm already in the studio parcelling them up ready to ship to you on Monday so they arrive on time. UK small business Saturday is next week, but they're no need to wait - all my deals are on right now and will continue up until I close for mince pies. . . . Memories of childhood - rock pooling in Cornwall, this necklace is made using a real limpet shell as a rock pool frame and in crystal clear eco-friendly resin sits an arrangement of brightly coloured seaweeds and shells. Available in my Etsy shop. . . . #limpetring #limpetringnecklace #limpetshell #shelljewelry #seaweed #seaweedpressing #periwinkle #fadedseasideglamour #seasideglamour #oceanfloor #rockpool #rockpoolnecklace #rockpoolpendant #handmadeuk #smallbusinesssaturday #smallbusinesssaturdayuk https://www.instagram.com/p/Clbn3LwtC97/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s that time again. I treated these limpet shell rings to a bath in my copper cauldron and then anodised them with a turquoise or rainbow patina. Now it’s the fun part. Tweezers at the ready! . . . #rockpoolpendant #limpetringnecklace #patina #copperelectroforming #limpetshell #shellnecklace #verdigris #verdigrispatina #shells #seaweed #seaweedpressings (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CT4fFtRIb9d/?utm_medium=tumblr

There’s a trip to the tip lined up today and I’m hoping to get started on some gardening tasks I keep putting off like turning the compost. While I’m sat here in bed drinking tea and thinking about a full English breakfast though, I’m finding it tough to get motivated. 😂. I did manage to get some listings for my shop done this week though like this medium sized limpet shell pendant. It’s packed with orange and burgundy seaweed, shells and micro shells the the brightest yellow periwinkle. All preserved in eco friendly resin.

Lil’ limpet ring rock pool scene necklace with seaglass and faux-leather/silver chain. It’s one of the tiniest I’ve made (just 1.8 cm wide) but still brimming with detail. Yellow periwinkle, pink seaweed, micro sized shells and a tiny pink clam shell with rainbow aura bead like an iridescent pearl. Seaglass from Seaham, England. . . . #limpetring #limpetringnecklace #seahamseaglass #beachjewelry #rockpool #rockpoolpendant #oceanscene #naturajewelry (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN91_yah-Eg/?igshid=1bgwe4osrynqa

Making underwater scenes with recently electroformed limpet shells that I’ve given a verdigris patina. Outside it’s weather for ducks. . . . #underwaterscenes #rockpools #playingwithshells #seaweedart #oceanfloor #rockpoolpendants #handmadejewelry #havingfun (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG7Jg1Jh_J6/?igshid=eouool7mb5c2
