This is a pic of a tiara I've been working on to have as a made to order item. I've had a bit of trouble trying to photograph it, but took some more pics today, and I'm quite happy with this one, could be improved though.
A small selection of my jewellery from one of my stockists NUCLUES will be shown at the Graham Clarke Gallery in the Hazlitt Arts Centre, Maidstone for the first two weeks of May 2009. Details below:
The showcase of NUCLEUS-registered talent from Medway and beyond will be split into two 2-week blocks and will highlight a broad spectrum of creative endeavour ranging from paintings and prints to sculpture, 3D design and accessories. All work will be for sale.
NUCLEUS: SHOWCASE opens on Wednesday 6 May and runs until Saturday 30 May. The gallery is open Monday-Saturday, 10-6pm and is located next door to Waterstones in Earl Street, Maidstone Kent.
I've been busy making changes to the website, adding new pages such as bridal jewellery and giving the whole site a revamp. There's also a whole page feature running in the Kent Messenger's Focus Magazine this month all about Silver Leaves.
My name is Nicola Crawford and I am a self-taught jewellery designer maker. I love taking my inspiration for my designs from nature.
I create my jewellery using real leaves and pure recycled silver.
