Happy Horny Fungi Ring




I am really happy about how the colours came out in this one. Constructed from merino wool which I first wet felted and then needle felted. I also used UV resin at the base of the felted structure with natural rough diamonds.

The ring base is Faux Bone with sterling silver tube rivets.

The ring size is a US 7.5 and stands about 12cm above the wearer's finger.

Raspberries & Cream Golf Tee Ring


Sorry I have been so quiet for a month - I went back to the UK (from NZ) with my two kiddies to visit my family. Longest flight ever, with just a quick 2 hour rest in Hong Kong for refuelling. My kiddies were great though - not too much vomiting and any vomit made it into the bag(s) provided. Bonus! Had a brilliant time (the weather was fabulous) and we were spoilt rotten by my lovely, untiring parents.

So back to it then!

The focal point of this ring is a plastic yellow golf tee (warning - I have a whole bag of these to use up!) which is filled with shards of vintage pink glass in resin, a natural freshwater pearl and a 'stamen' of 'antiqued' sterling silver.

I have also used merino wool roving (which has been needle felted) in raspberries and cream colours, UV resin, natural rough diamonds, a plastic aquarium plant and a ring base of faux bone.

Still jet lagged though.....

Oh and I was made to watch 'Sleeping Beauty' non-stop all the way from Auckland to London. And back again. Nice.

Diamond Bud Ring


I'm not sure if this is finished or not - probably not and I will take it further....

But at the moment, here it is my 'Diamond Bud Ring'.

Made using Faux bone, sterling silver tube, UV resin, natural rough diamonds and merino wool roving (wet felted then needle felted).

Raspberries & Cream Ring




I just finished this one - it reminds me of those 2-tone sweets called Raspberry & Cream I used to eat packets of when I was little.......

Its merino wool (cream and raspberry coloured) wet felted and then needle felted around a Faux bone base. It also features a green plastic aquarium plant, yellow plastic golf tee, UV resin, natural rough diamonds (around ring base), shards of vintage pink glass, old brass washer, natural freshwater white pearl, oxidised sterling silver wire.

Ring size is US 8.
