The cutest snoot pendant! 🐕 🐾 🤎

During my time off, I had a couple of special requests that I couldn't say no to... one of these was a doggo snoot pendant. Unfortunately, we had a bit of a situation where the first pendant was lost by the posties and never made it to the customer 😭 Miraculously, it was found months later (under somewhat sus circumstances 🤔) but the whole experience was understandably tarnished for what should have been a truly special piece. So we decided to recast the original pendant (last 📸) into a new snoot print (the original one was a paw print as the snoot was a bit tricky to capture first time) and it was 100% worth it! Now she can wear a little piece of her pup wherever she goes 🥰

🌟UPDATE🌟

It's been a whirlwind year this year, and I can't believe we're already in September! I know I'm well overdue for an update (especially given I had planned a return of workshops this month 🙈) but life took over a bit this year, so all I can do is apologise to those who have been waiting in the sidelines. BUT... good news, there is a light at the end of the hiatus tunnel! Some of you may already know, but we sold our house last year, and we finally found and moved into our new house back in April (about a month after welcoming our second girlie too), so let's just say, 2026 has been a time 😅

Thankfully, life has settled into somewhat of a routine and with help from family, we've managed to get well underway with the work of our new studio! I've been painting during naptimes and weekends so I'm confident that I'll be able to open back up for bookings in October (so just a month late). I will post as soon as I have confirmed dates for workshops but you can sign up on the website to have dates sent to your inbox so you don't miss it (can't count on the algorithm these days 😑).

Anyway, here's a snippet of life since we farewelled the old house and studio. Being near the water has been so good for the soul 😌 Scroll to the end to see the chaos of the workshop! (it's not as orange as it looks 😅)

Can't wait to hang out making pretty things with you all again xx 🥰✨️

END OF AN ERA, BUT WE WILL BE BACK!

It's been one hell of a week, full of emotions as we said goodbye to our first family since moving back to NZ in 2021. This is where my venture into my jewellery making workshops began, and what a wild ride it's been! I still can't believe how many of you embraced the experience, with many of you even coming back for more!

I don't take any of this for granted, especially these last couple of years when most of us experienced such tough times but still showed up for us small businesses. I had so many lovely messages over the last few weeks from followers near and far, and want to assure you all that this is not a farewell. WE WILL BE BACK! How it will all look and where is all still very much up in the air, but I promise I won't keep you in the dark for too long! So please follow along as we pave this new and exciting (albeit slightly uncertain) path.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to everyone who helped make this dream come true! And apologies to those I've had to turn away these last few weeks, but I hope you can join us later in the year to bring your dream treasures to life!

Love to you all 😘

The Osakana Jewellery team (Sarina, Kyle, Pixel, and Isla) xx

🌟 THAT'S A WRAP! 🌟 (+ A BELATED UPDATE)

The last rings from the workshop were picked up this morning so I'm officially signing off for 2025!

This year saw lots of changes, both for the business and personally, and it's been a wild ride at times but looking back, I'm pretty proud of what I achieved over the year 🤩 I ran 34 workshops this year, and two terms of the new wax carving course. That's around 200 one-of-a-kind heirlooms, keepsakes, wedding/anniversary rings that are being treasured and hopefullypassed down for years to come! Of course, none of this would have been possible without all of your support. So THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for keeping my dream a reality. I know it's been (and still is) a tough time for so many of us, so I'm even more appreciative that so many of you put your trust in me to bring your visions to life.

A LITTLE UPDATE...

This update should have come months ago, but here we are in December already (better late than never right?). Next year will look a little different as the workshops will be taking a break until the latter half of 2026. I'm already having to turn away some lovely people who wanted to come and make rings early next year, and I have to apologise deeply that I can't because we will be welcoming a sibling for Isla and Pixel in a couple of months time! I will definitely be itching to get back to the bench with you all soon though, so you can rest assured, I WILL BE BACK! I PROMISE!

We will also be moving (but we'll still be on the shore) so will hopefully have a new studio when workshops start back up. Please don't forget about us and keep following for updates as we head into a slightly new phase for Osakana Jewellery 🙏

There will be just 2 more scheduled Wax Carving Workshops in January before we pack up. Although both sessions are sold out, do put yourself on the waitlist as I do sometimes get last minute cancellations. If you have a group of 3 or more, I can also hold private workshops up until mid January, just get in touch 😊

That's enough sentimental chat 😋 THANK YOU again so much and I wish you all a safe, healthy, and happy Christmas and New Year! You guys are absolute legends! 🤘🙏

✨️ THE FAUNA RINGS ✨️

The trio of rings inspired by NZ fauna depict the Tui, Piwakawaka, and the ocean. These took much longer than I had hoped, but they're just in time for the gifting season! They will be available in brass, silver, or 9K gold to suit every budget.

You can pre-order these rings until 1st December, which will give me enough time to get them made and shipped in time to be placed under the tree 🎄

A few of each will also be heading to a couple of stockists if you would like to see them IRL too but will let you know when they're in store soon.

Hope you like them!!
