Handcraft Jewelry
La minuciosa arte de tejer mostacillas.

31/01/2026

2025 was a year full of new experiences, and I want to express my gratitude.

1- I started studying contemporary jewelry at the .escolajoalheria school under the guidance of Nicole, who introduced me to new materials and ways of exploring my work.

2- I received a visit from a great friend, who is so amazing that she never takes off her sunglasses for photos :)

3- I had the opportunity to listen to and meet an artist I admire, .

4- I created my first piece with a strong conceptual focus, which was a challenge in every way.

5- I participated in the 60th anniversary of the Estoril Fair, a place I hadn't visited before.

6- After three months of work in the Algarve, I dedicated a few days to creating new patterns.

7- I baked empanadas for a friend's birthday and even shared the recipe with her.

8 - I took many walks on the beach to slow down.

And many other things that are impossible to describe here.

And so 2025 passed, a year with many things learned and many more to learn. So I say thank you to 2025 and hello to 2026, which brings many good things.

I'll tell you about it soon.

Today I want to share everything I have done this time.

In parallel to the emotional roller coasters, I gave myself the opportunity to learn and study some things I always wanted to.
At the end of 2024 I learned about colour theory, and I loved it!
I met Susan from and it was super enriching. I understood why some colours I like more than others, how to combine them and how to work with freedom.
It was an oasis in the never-ending task of producing for the summer season 2025.
I speak as if we are not in 2025

Every summer I feel a bit of this disorder. It seems that the healthy routines get lost, that the days are not enough to do everything and that I don't even get to enjoy everything.
But in the end it all ends well, it's a feeling of the future, not the present. Mastering these micro anxieties is the work of being alive.
Cada verano siento un poco de este desorden. Parece que las rutinas saludables se pierden, que los dias no alcanzan para hacer todo e inclusive que no llegue a disfrutar del todo.
Pero al final todo acaba bien, es una sensación de futuro, no de presente. Dominar esas micro ansiedades son el trabajo de estar viva.

The purest of truths...👇
Keeping the constancy is not that easy.
This week I have been very active in real life, that is, working during the summer season. As many of you know, I spend the summer months in the Algarve with a permanent job, which means 10 hours of work per day and therefore, sometimes I am even more absent in the digital world.
The good thing is that this time has helped me to remake pieces of the collection that were out of stock 😌 Everything always finds its place.
Mantener la constancia no es asi tan fácil.
He estado esta semana muy activa en la vida real, o sea, trabajando en la temporada de verano. Como muchos saben los meses de verano los paso en Algarve con un puesto fijo, lo que significan 10hs de trabajo diario y por ende, mantenerme a veces mas ausente en lo digital.
Lo bueno es que este tiempo me ha servido para rehacer piezas de la colección que se habían agotado :) Todo siempre encuentra su lugar.

Many clients who have known me for a while have asked me: how did you manage to make the collection and gather the people to take the pictures?
The truth is that things always come up at the right time. In November 2023 I started designing the first earrings, which defined the style a bit.
Then talking to Joana, who I knew from the previous collection and who always challenges me, gave me the confidence to continue. While she was looking for models and organising, we exchanged the new designs that came up and some of the objectives we had proposed. Some time before, we proposed a date to photograph (which was delayed because the big pieces took more time than I imagined), and that day made magic.
Here it looks like 10 days but in reality it was several months of learning, trial and error.
Muchos clientes que me conocen a un tiempo me han preguntado: cómo conseguiste hacer la colección y reunir las personas para hacer las fotografías?
La verdad es que las cosas surgen siempre en el momento indicado. En noviembre de 2023 comencé a diseñar los primeros pendientes, que definieron un poco el estilo.
Luego conversando con Joana, que la conocía de la anterior colección y que siempre me desafía, me dio confianza para continuar. Mientras ella buscaba modelos y organizaba, intercambiávamos los diseños nuevos que surgían y algunos objetivos que teníamos propuesto. Un tiempo antes, propusimos una fecha para fotografiar (que fue atrasada porque las piezas grandes llevaron mas tiempo del que imaginaba), y aquel dia hizo magia.
Aqui parecen 10 dias pero fueron en realidad varios meses de aprendizaje, prueba y errores.
