My Creative Journey (or… how it all got a little out of hand 😄)

May 2

If I’m honest… I don’t even remember exactly how this all started.

It might have been seed beads.

Or brooches.

Or crochet.

At this point? I guess we’ll never know 🤔

What I do know is this:


I see someone creating something on Instagram… and boom — I’m hooked.


Suddenly I’m thinking, “I can do that… why not?”


And just like that, a new project begins.


🎨 A Little Bit of Everything

Over time, I’ve explored more crafts than I can probably keep track of:

  • Brooches, earrings, necklaces, and headbands made from tiny seed beads

  • Crochet projects (including the cutest little baby booties)

  • Detailed wall art made bead by bead — a true labour of love

  • Kids’ sweatshirts

  • Cross stitch (Eureka it all started with Cross Stitch 😄)

Then came the pandemic…


🧵 The “Why Not?” Era

During COVID, I jumped into making tote bags with quotes — and honestly, that’s when things really took off.

After that, I did:

  • Crochet flowers

  • Heart-shaped earrings

  • More tote bags (of course)

  • Even more seed bead creations

And somewhere in the middle of all this…


I had the brilliant idea to rhinestone an entire car 🤦🏼‍♀️

Yes. A whole car.


Individually placing every single rhinestone.

(Still in progress, by the way… because apparently I like a challenge 🙃)


💸 The “I’ll Just Try This” Phase

Then one day, I saw clay earrings online and thought:

“I can definitely do that.”

Fast forward… £500 later in materials…


And just like that, I was making clay earrings too 🤣


✨ And Now… Jesmonite

You’d think that’s where the story ends — but no 🙈

Recently, I discovered jesmonite.


I saw someone creating beautiful pieces and… well, you know how this goes by now.

New materials? Ordered.


First attempts? Done ✔️

And honestly — I love the results.


I can’t wait to share more of these creations with you very soon.


💖 The Reality of My Creative World

My journey isn’t about sticking to one thing.

It’s about:

  • Curiosity

  • Trying new ideas

  • Learning as I go

  • And sometimes slightly overcommitting to big projects 😅

But that’s what makes it exciting.

Every piece you see is part of that journey — a mix of experiments, passion, and “let’s see what happens if…”


🚀 What’s Next?

Honestly? Probably something new.

Because if I see it on Instagram…


you already know what’s coming next.
