Hello mermaid dream necklace!

I love this shimmering, one of a kind necklace! Made from genuine freshwater seed pearls and an antique shell pendant necklace, it is a stunning statement piece.

I have used part of a beautiful pastel coloured, antique trochus shell belt buckle and made it into a one of a kind pendant. When I bought it, it was looking for a new purpose in life! I added a dangling beaded fringe to the buckle with complementary coloured beads and strung it from a vintage seed pearl necklace. I have also re-strung the seed pearl necklace, finishing it with its original clasp, and so both the buckle and the necklace are having a new lease of life!

The buckle has absolutely beautiful shimmering colours of pastel pinks, blues, faux pearls and of course the natural iridescence of the trochus shells themselves.

It is finished with a signature Shh by Sadie tag.

Necklace length approx 45cm. Pendant approx 8 × 4cm.

This necklace is a one of a kind, combination of antique and new elements and so you will never see any one else wearing the same necklace! 

I enjoy repairing and re-designing broken or unwanted vintage jewellery so that it can be worn and loved once again.

Here’s a lovely chunky vintage sterling silver curb bracelet with a collection of vintage and antique coin charms.

I originally bought this bracelet for myself because I love chunky charm bracelets but the chain is too big for my wrist and it is a shame to alter its original condition, so I’m letting it go to a new home. It is one of a kind and has 13 antique and vintage coins including:

1891 Queen Victoria threepence

1934 King George V three pence

Egyptian King Farouk I 2 Piastres or 2 Qirsh

Egyptian King Farouk coin

1931 King George V three pence

1956 Roosevelt One Dime

1941 Liberty Half Dollar

1910 King Edward V11 Canadian 5 Cents

1854 Queen Victoria four pence

19-8 King George VI Farthing

1959 Queen Juliana The Netherlands 10 cents

1884 Queen Victoria three pence

1854 Queen Victoria four pence

Hello my lovelies! I am always excited to work on custom orders and get my creative juices flowing!

Last week my customer asked if I could design one, or possibly two, beaded cuffs for the Fourth of July. And so I got to work and sent her four Americana styled options . She chose one large cuff and two skinny cuffs and you can see the finished results below!

I’m really happy with how they turned out, they’re super bold and super striking!

If you ever have an idea for a custom order, send me a message and I’m happy to look at it with you :-)

Come and join me at Craft Festival this weekend at Bovey Tracey! I'll be there all weekend alongside dozens of other makers, creators, artists and artisans.

There are workshops, demonstrations, food stalls and musicians...just keep your fingers crossed for decent weather!

I've spent the last five weeks beading, beading and beading having lost a couple of months of productivity after being ill at the beginning of the year. There have been a lot of late nights but I am happy with what I've managed to put together in time to show at the festival :-)

Craft Festival runs from Friday 6th - Sunday 8th June, 10-5pm. You can find me in marquee B, stand 10.

Hope to see you there!

Sending love,

I can’t help it, but I say it every time. I’m obsessed with these shells 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

I collect both antique trochus shell necklaces and antique Tasmanian maireener shell necklaces myself. AndI am so very tempted to keep this necklace because I have never seen a trochus shell necklace in this style and can’t find anything at all like it online! Wooden bamboo style beads, glass crystals and the shimmeriest of shells. If she hasn’t sold by the time I’m going on holiday, she’s mine.

Until then, she is available on my Etsy shop.
