Rich colours of summer - inspiration for making contemporary jewellery
I love the warm rich colours of summer. The heat and warmth has certainly 'baked' our landscape here in Herefordshire - it's been such joy to enjoy a 'proper' summer this time around. However, we had some rain this weekend but today the sun is shining again!

It has been incredibly hot in the jewellery making studio. On Thursday I gave in; the conditions beat me. I turned off all the equipment and lights in the studio that give out so much heat. Put my floaty silk dress on and planned pieces for Goldsmiths' Fair 2018. Such a good move.
