Turtles, Seahorses and Other Things

One of my favourite jewellery component designers is Lesley Watt - The Gossiping Goddess. She uses Metal Clay and I have bought quite a few pieces from her  (OK I have bought a LOT), but I think you will agree what she designs is amazing and I want to own personally everything I have bought.....

Below are a few that I have made into Necklaces and also a glimpse of the ones not yet made into Necklaces.

All these necklaces are on the same beads - Indian Summer Picasso 10/0 Seeded Beads
Shades of Green Medallion

Seahorse

Starfish

Turtle (I do personally own one of these ones!)

PICTURE of remaining purchases...... So many possibilities. If you see anything you like, let me know and I can make it into something special.


I think you will agree with me that Lesley's work is amazing, beautiful and every other adjective you can think of.

Everything on this Blog is For Sale, so please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like a piece of jewellery.

New Beginnings

I have never been one for keeping a journal/diary so not sure how I am going to go with this Blog, but we are going to give it a good crack.

For those who don't know AllieCat Design Studio, it is my fledging business  that could be designing anything. At this present moment it is Jewellery Making. Below are some examples of what I have done so far.

This is a 5 row wrap bracelet using czech glass beads with picasso finish on them. Absolutely love this style. Just don't ask how long it takes to make. It is sewn using one continuous strand of leather.

This is another bracelet, very Bohemian, can do it in pretty much any colour with a couple of different sayings on the charm. All beads are czech glass with silk ribbon and silver chain. The bracelet is adjustable.

I also am dabbling with black metal... Do love it!
