I'm mum to Ayla, Hannah and Lexi. Keepsake jewellery teacher and YouTuber. Blogger, jeweller/metalsmith/artist and mentor. I love making trinkets and I spend any spare time I have drawing pencil sketches, sewing and restoring furniture. I run the Facebook group for Breastmilk and Memorial Jewellers and also sell supplies for permanent jewellery. I dream of building my own house and doing more charity work in Tanzania.
