Crafting is my happy place! Here I make unique, beautiful and great quality jewellery for all occasions.

My name is Angela. I started crafting at a time when my life unexpectedly turned upside down and I lost my wonderful husband. I used creativity as a distraction, but very quickly grew to love it. It's like my own personal therapy: the peace, the concentration, the excitement of creating a unique design. I feel a sense of calm. I work on my kitchen table looking over my garden. Here I have great light and plenty of space. (I'm also close to the chocolate biscuits in the fridge!)
Oh, and I'm also a published author. I love creating stories about real historical events where my fictional characters are given challenges to overcome. My fourth and fifth novels have been accepted by a publisher and should be out within the year. I'm currently writing my 6th book.
I hope you enjoy looking at my listings and cross my fingers that maybe you'll be tempted to buy something!
