Corals

Hi guys!

When I started writing this, I was on a bus in Da Lat, Vietnam, and I thought that there was no better place than here to write about colourful and traditional jewellery. The Vietnamese streets, fabrics and culture are full of colourful traditions, and it has certainly inspired me to write about my own culture.

Similarly in Nigeria, our culture oozes beauty and extravagance, especially during occasions like weddings. Here the guests and bride & groom wear beautiful, decorative and traditional fabrics, which have been planned many months in advance. 

But of course, if you have your best shoes and clothes on, you want to complete the look with equally as gorgeous jewellery. These are made of beads of all colours, shapes and sizes, which complement the traditional fabrics very well - from coral beads to stunning fasceted beads!

Don't Get It Twisted...Wire Jewellery

Hi guys! I hope you are all well and have recovered from all the recent celebrations and festivities.

I am here with my second blog post, and no it is not about  +DBanjVEVO 
(who I could listen to anytime/everytime), but rather it is about my new found love for wire jewellery. 

In the last few weeks I have been twisting, tweaking and winding wires to make a different style of jewellery - I have really enjoyed experimenting and branching out into this side of jewellery making. This technique, together with a simple idea, gives rise to stunning pieces of jewellery that you want to wear!
