The moor with its mass of lovely mauves, pinks, purples and white heathers including the Cornish heath with its beautiful lilac blooms that can be seen on The Lizard.
Along with the rich mix of red and black berries that appear in the hedgerows and the luscious greens of the ferns and mosses, changing into rich chocolate browns
This season has inspired our Cornish Woodlands, Heath & Hedgerows range. This collection celebrates the autumnal colour mixes from all around this beautiful county to create something extra special for a beautiful bride and her tribe.
Autumn in Cornwall is a special place with an atmosphere like nowhere else I have known. This autumn season also gives us Halloween and Bonfire night, which for me means, scarf on, boots on, hot chocolate and mulled wine! Trick or treat around the cobbled streets, getting together with the family at the beach bonfire and not forgetting the fireworks and a family favourite pumpkin picking day. If you are brave enough ghost walks and witch hunts around the impressive castles and prisons that Cornwall has to offer.
This season really feels special to me, why not come and experience it for yourself.

2021 has been a time to do some serious thinking about moving forward, so here is the plan: Getting the collections together, designing and making. Having fun with a coast and countryside photoshoot and getting some professional images taken of the makes. A wedding show booked for October 2021. And also the year to create a website. We'll here we are, towards the end of 2021 and I can proudly say all these have been achieved. Roll on 2022 - onwards and upwards!
I'm looking forward to meeting some lovely brides and creating something unique for their special day.
I love macro photography and the fascinating close-up images you achieve and I wanted to recreate what I could see through a camera lens into an everlasting form. Capturing the characteristics of leaves, flowers, tree bark using metal.
I decided to go to university to study Silversmithing & Jewellery and after lots of hard work and dedication I graduated with a Batchelor of Arts with Honours.
The Cornish countryside and beach walks have always inspired my work as I find myself looking closely at the beautiful shapes and fascinating textures. I put this into my designs using copper, brass, silver and pewter - creating them using traditional techniques. I love working in copper because of the natural colours created and also the connection to Cornwall's copper heritage.
Six years on and a friend asked me to make some wire flowers and a tiara for her daughter’s wedding day - I was instantly hooked. Since I had experienced elements of copper and other metals I have become inspired by more dainty projects and creating tiaras for special days has evolved from that.
This incorporates my love of photography, nature, designing and creating and also brings something special and unique to a bride’s special day inspired by the beautiful Cornish coast and countryside.
