I haven’t done one of these for a little while, so thought it would be an opportune moment to introduce to you Dier Designs (http://Jleareid.etsy.com), quite a new shop on Etsy, from a user who has been registered on the site a little while. I love the combination of clay and glass to make these bracelets!
I’m cheating a little bit for my Make this week, as I had already taken this picture, but I sold this bangle this week, so I made another!
Here’s my 2nd item towards the Make 50 challenge! A custom order for Laura from http://www.glueandglitter.co.uk/
It was cast from an existing cuff that was made smaller with milliput and has inside pieces of a UK map, stamps and watch parts!
Just a quick update to say that I will be demonstrating how to make these earrings at We Make Christmas, The American Church, Tottenham Court Road in London on December 6th. My time slot is 2.30pm until 4pm, so feel free to come along and say hi, and watch the demonstration of how I make these from start to finish. I will also be adding my work to a demonstrators showcase, and there will be a wealth of talented designers and makers selling their goods. For more information, please see http://wemakelondon.blogspot.com/

Finally, in keeping with the swirled dye jewellery theme, my bangle was on the Etsy front page yesterday which was fun. The screen grab is on my work computer, but here is the bangle in question! Available here: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=16166119
Very happy to be in the Etsy Finds section today:
That’s my bangle!

Added a bunch of new stuff to Etsy (http://pennydogaccessories.etsy.com) and PennyDog (http://www.penny-dog.co.uk) today, here’s a little gallery!
Some of the pieces I showed you earlier in the week as work in progress are now finished and in my shop www.penny-dog.co.uk
Here’s how they look now!
I made this last night with starfish and shells I found on the Jersey coast. I love the way the colours have really come alive once embedded. I couldn’t wait to wear it, I had to put it on for work without sanding the edges as I’m feeling all summery today!
I AM A NO-REPLY BLOGGER. Sorry about that- it's a Wordpress thing. You can e-mail me though at kerry(AT)penny-dog.co.uk - I won't mind!
