Check out these crazy salvaged 1970's-esque vintage Murano glass beads that I've paired with two limpet shell rock pools I made to create asymmetrical earrings. They remind me of sea urchins. The limpet shell rock pools contain micro shell treasures including seaweed, periwinkles, top shells and tiny scallops with iridescent fired beads to look like pearls. . . . #seaurchin #limpetshell #tidepool #rockpool #shellearrings #1970s #orangeearrings #seaweedpressings #microshells #limpetshellearrings #inspiredbythesea #beachjewellery #beachearrings #asymmetricalearrings https://www.instagram.com/p/CcU1-HctYgv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Day 13 of #marchmeetthemaker ~ Photography Catching up a bit after spending yesterday in Newcastle for #Hothouse2019 As a one person business I end up doing pretty much everything, including photography! I try to take photos of my work in the environment which inspired the designs to help tell the stories of each piece. 🌊This image (of a Ripple Throw in Stonewash!) was taken on the beach in Orkney close to where my dad grew up. We were very lucky with the sunshine but did have almost gale force winds and a very excited border collie to contend with! . . #sustainablecraft #inspiredbythesea #scottishcraft #scottishtextiles #weaversofinstagram (at Birsay, Orkney, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu_xUNEgAfr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=d0ay54cxvjwk
