Its March. And its my first post.

Dear friends it has been a while. We are at the end of March and this is my first post for the year. I must admit, the juggling act of being a cheery wife, good mama and inspired and productive entrepreneur have become a little more challenging.

But we keep juggling and it stays fun!

We have been busy in the studio these past weeks. There have been a lot of orders as well as a continuous supply of stock to Desert Rain in Swakopmund.

Here are some pretty jewels for you to enjoy!

Blink. Christmas.

It feels like I just blinked since my last post and now we are almost celebrating Christmas! These past few moths have flown by! I think juggling baby and studio might have fast forwarded time for me a bit...

As fast as it may feel, these past few months have been the greatest joy! Floris is 6 and a half months old now. He is sitting on his own like a champ, gobbling up all his butternut, squealing with delight when he gets cuddles, creating little showers of rain in the bathroom bath time and loving our studio assistant more and more very day (Spatz the Labrador...). What a privilege being this awesome little mans mama.

In studio I have been very busy with commission orders these past few weeks. A lot of the pieces I cant share with you yet because they are engagement rings that are still waiting to be worn, birthday gifts wrapped and ready and parcels that are still waiting to be collected. I will however share some of the new stock that I have sent off to Desert Rain in Swakopmund. Remember to pop if you are in Swakopmund over December.

Next week I head to Cape Town for a very good friends (and very talented jewellery designer!) wedding. We arrive a few days before the actual wedding because there are wreaths to make and bunting to hang! I love the excitement and preparation of a wedding!

Thank you to each and every one of you for supporting me throughout the year. I really feel so blessed to be able to work the way I do. Doing something I love every day and being able to be around to hear the little squeals of delight from my little man. Thank you for your support!

I wish you all a very blessed festive season with family and friends. Merry Christmas and a very happy new year!

I will be back in studio the 13th of January! My mind is already crowded with new ideas for next year! I do however think a little break from my tiny studio will be very good. In need of some Karoo skies, veld bossies, sea and sand! I will see you all in January, refreshed and inspired and ready for 2016!

May Baby

I finally have some time to download my photos and do some blogging! We are already half way through May and I see I have only blogged twice this year - shame on me!

I had a long list of orders to work through before baby arrives and I managed to get that all done! So now I am waiting for baby...

For those of you who haven't had the chance to pop into Desert Rain (the new lifestyle shop in Swakopmund), do yourselves a favour and check out their awesome products! They have furniture, leather products, clothing, accessories, home ware and jewellery. I also have a small collection of jewellery on display in the store and will be supplying them with a new range in Spring.

I hope you will enjoy the pretty jewels from the past two months : )

September I am back with a bang! There are stones to set, orders to start, markets to attend and stores to supply!

Enjoy : )
