About Me!
Hello! I'm Gem! I'm daughter in law to Amanda, who previously ran the craft fayres for 18 years! I teamed up with Amanda through 2022 & officially took over at the beginning of 2023. I will be present at all the craft fayres, so if you have any questions or quieries, please come and find me and we'll have a chat! *** I’ve always been very creative & want to try my hand at a bit of everything. I like to create whatever takes my fancy & I’m inspired by many things. I took some time in art college to learn some basic silversmithing techniques and took a short course in Bristol, with 'Make It With Kim' & have been successful in creating some pieces I’m proud of. I absolutely love it, it's my ultimate passion. I work with mostly 925 Eco silver & some brass detailing. I’ve always been a lover of nature and all things dark & creepy, along with witchery, astrology & the paranormal, these all play a big part in my creations. I also create textile art & mixed media artwork alongside. A lot of what I create is experimentation to begin, but that’s part of the fun of it all! I have an Etsy shop of creative handmade nicknackery inspired by nature, with a dark twist & a touch of whimsy! Creativity is my main passion & has always been a huge part of my personality & my life. I hope to one day be self employed & running the craft fayres alongside. I live with my amazing husband, Thom (Amandas son) & our two fur babies, Bones the Jack Russell & Dallas the Chihuahua! I love spending time with Thom, Bones & Dallas, as well as family and friends. I love nature, taking photos of it, am a house plant fiend, & I love a bit of stargazing! ***
