Not jewellery related, but I am at my bench 😉
Let me introduce myself if we’ve not met yet. . I’m Claire - jewellery designer and maker. I work in Sterling Silver mainly, using accents of gold, gemstones and pearls. I’m one of the team at Derry Designer Makers, and you may also have seen me exhibit at many Fine and Dandy markets across the North.
I’m working hard on overcoming my camera-shyness. And since I’m always the one taking pics, it’s only fair I get on the other side of the lens ( even if this is just the once )
We are all our own biggest critics, and will find flaws in how we look, that no-one else cares about. But believe me there comes a time when you won’t care. I’m almost there.
So here I am, no makeup, no hair-do and no trending filters. Just me at my happy place. 😊
(For reference, there was about 30 takes of this selfie, before I was actually looking in the right direction 🫣)
