I'm about to embark on a super special trip with my mum ❀️‍πŸ”₯ we are walking the Camino de Santiago together, and visiting a few places and close friends around Europe, ticking some items off the bucket list. This truly is an experience of a lifetime, and I am so so grateful to be doing it with the best woman I know!
I will be out of the studio until 25 June 🌊 I appreciate your understanding as my comms may be delayed over this period. Any jewellery orders placed now will be processed after 25 June. Workshop bookings will go ahead as usual (there are only 2 spots left for the 11 July workshop!) ✨️
I can't wait to see what inspiration waits for me over the seas, and bring it home to create more wondrous treasures πŸ”₯

Finished this slice of sunshine the other day to honour my soul sister on her 40th earth day 🌞

The shape and lines and general feel of this piece was quite intentional - inspired by our connection and shared love of the sunshine, star light, organic, go with the flow / what goes around comes around kinda vibes ❀️‍πŸ”₯

I loved making this piece, soldering brass and silver, stringing the Apatite beads for the chain, and witnessing the reaction upon opening the box 😍

Every time! Just blown away by the creativity and skill of my students πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ none of these amazing women (who I'm super glad to have met and connected with in this unplanned all-woman workshop which was just so special) had any ring making experience, and they blew it out the water βœ¨οΈπŸŒžβ€οΈβ€πŸ”₯

Cleaning up the rings from the most recent Ember Studio Ring Workshop! Such joy making these outrageously unique pieces pop ✨️ (despite the look on my face πŸ˜…)

I haven't set the date for the next workshop yet, but stay tuned! And if you have a group of peeps that are keen to get their ring making on, reach out for a "custom workshop" experience - I'm always happy to see how we can make it happen!

I'll post the final outcome soon soon πŸ”₯

Sometimes I catch myself pining for the desert and it's dramatic beauty. I snapped this pic at the end of the Fish River Canyon in Namibia. These natural and isolated landscapes are where much of my inspiration to design comes from.

Ola to 2026!
I've just returned from the most magical, restful and necessary break in the bush 🌱πŸ”₯🌞🌊
I've been quite offline since Christmas and never got around to saying a massive THANK YOU for the incredible support over 2025. It was a pivotal year for me in many ways, and Ember has been a vital piece of the backbone that held me up through what was a really exciting and exploratory time! We saw the launch of the Ember Wax Workshops, which have been just the best, creative fun, and I can't wait to do loads more with you, as well as get busy with the stack of awesome designs and ideas I've been gathering in my sketchbooks. I'm bursting with anticipation for this new year. Thank you for joining me on this epic ride βœ¨οΈβ€οΈβ€πŸ”₯
