I make jewellery – mostly rings – using various beadweaving techniques, combined with vintage crystals, buttons and other bits and pieces. When I first started beadweaving I was most inspired by the work of Laura McCabe. My rings are big and colourful and pretty unique.
Crystal Spinner Ring
The spinner is a clever bit of beadweaving using ladder stitch. The middle bit is a crystal bezeled rivoli which slides through the spinner and the spinner can then be changed. The Carousel spinner is bare, but the ring spinner has the addition of sparkle with the 3 mm crystals on the face of each tip.
