Hello and welcome. I make jewellery out of hand rolled paper beads which I sell in aid of the St Wilfrid's centre for vulnerable and homeless adults. Check out their website https://www.stwilfridscentre.org/

I use recycled paper and I get inspiration from the colour of the paper and whichever pre-loved beads I could find to complement my design - This means that no two pieces are alike.

I add new creations every few weeks, so please feel free to come and browse again and again for that one-of-a-kind piece. If you like what you see and want to buy more than one piece, then please let me know as I am very happy to combine postage for you.

I love working with old maps: they make great paper beads! Working with this 1962 OS map of Greater London was special though as I recognised many of the places on it.
I initially wanted to make just a necklace (see my shop) but realised I had enough beads left to make earrings too.

Full description

Long dangling earrings made of a 1962 OS map of Greater London. The map was cut into strips, hand rolled into tubular paper beads and varnished. 3 graded sized beads were used, topped and tailed with wooden discs (dark brown, pale brown and gold). They are mounted on gold plated earring hooks

The drop from tip of the earring hook to the bottom bead is just over 8cm. The largest bottom bead is about 1 1/2 cm in diameter and the smaller top one is 1 cm in diameter.

I sell my handmade jewellery in aid of the Sheffield St Wilfrid's centre for vulnerable, socially disadvantaged and homeless adults.
