🌟✨ Confessions of a Crafter: To Keep or Not to Keep? . I often get asked, "Do you keep a pair of earrings you make?" 🤔 . Well, here's the scoop: Only if there's a defect! 🙈 But here's the juicy secret – sometimes I can't help but feel a twinge of excitement when I find an air bubble! 💨 . 🔍 Defect Dilemma: If there's a little flaw, a quirky imperfection that only the keen eye might spot, I'll keep that pair close. It's like having a unique creation that tells its own story – a reminder that even the little hiccups can add character to the art. . So, to my fellow crafters, do you ever catch yourself secretly grinning at those tiny quirks in your creations? . 😄✨ Embrace the charm of imperfections – they make each piece one-of-a-kind! 🌈💫 . Share your thoughts – do you keep the "flawed" ones or gift them with love? Let's celebrate the beauty in every little blip on our creative radar! 🚀🌟 . . #BellaAndBlissDesign #BTSJewellery #StudioLife #CreativeProcess #CraftingMagic #DesignStudio #BehindTheBling #EarringCreation #MakerLife #CraftingMoments #EarringArtistry #BehindTheCraft #BTSBellaAndBlissDesign #ArtisanCraft #MakeWithMe #ClayIdeas #MakersMoment #SlowMadeFashion #ColourMix #HomeStudio #CraftersConfessions #ImperfectionsRock #HandmadeWithLove #EarringAdventures
✨ Elevating the Sanding Game: Say Goodbye to Scruffy Edges! ✨🛠️ . Let’s talk about upgrading our sanding game because scruffy edges are a definite no-no! 🙅♂️✨ .

The Dremel is like a sculptor’s dream tool, offering precision that hand sanding can’t match. It effortlessly glides over surfaces, ensuring a consistent and flawless finish on every piece.

Ah! We filmed our designer video for @twistonline yesterday! When I launched my line I can’t tell you how badly I wanted to work with Twist. I used to (and still do) go on their site and watch designer videos back-to-back-to-back. I just love getting a glimpse behind the scenes. I can’t believe we filmed ours yesterday— it didn’t even feel like work, I had the best time with @sashamarie_nyc @northgrownfilms . I don’t remember what I said because I get nervous and forget how to speak in front of the camera but I can tell you it was a great day ☁️❄️✨
🕰️✨ Let's travel back in time to where it all began – the origin of our stud earrings. It was my canvas to showcase my love for vibrant colours and unique styles. My stud earrings were more than just accessories; they were a way to express individuality. 🎨💖 . From the very first spark of inspiration to the careful selection of materials, each piece tells a tale of passion and dedication. During the design process, every curve and detail was meticulously crafted to perfection, resulting in a beautiful and unique canvas of ideas brought to life. 🔨🌈 . . . . . #BellaAndBlissDesign #BellaAndBlissDesignEarrings #PolymerclayEarrings #PolymerclayArtist #PolymerclayCreation #HandmadeWithLove #ClayEarrings #AustralianFashionAccessories #FashionOver30 #FashionOver40 #BTSJewellery #StudioLife #CreativeProcess #CraftingMagic #DesignStudio #BehindTheBling #EarringCreation #MakerLife #CraftingMoments #EarringArtistry #BehindTheCraft #BTSBellaAndBlissDesign #ArtisanCraft #MakeWithMe #ClayIdeas #MakersMoment #SlowMadeFashion #ColourMix #HomeStudio

Beyond the sparkle lies a story often untold. Jewellery carries hidden costs - from unethical practices to environmental impact. At CharmsofThemis, we're dedicated to transparency and ethical sourcing, crafting keychains that illuminate the hidden facets of the jewellery industry. Let's make conscious choices and uncover the true beauty behind ethical crafting. ✨🔍 #EthicalRevelation #ConsciousCraftsmanship #CharmsofThemis #behindthebling
12th June marks World Day Against Child Labour. At CharmsofThemis, we stand in solidarity with #EndChildLabour in the jewellery industry. Each keychain is a testament to our commitment to ethical crafting, ensuring no child's innocence is compromised. Let's craft a future free from exploitation, one ethical charm at a time. 💫🌍 #NoChildLabour #EthicalCraftsmanship #CharmsofThemis #behindthebling
Creating handmade earrings can be a time-consuming process, but it is also a lot of fun. The number of earrings I craft in one session can vary depending on the complexity of the design, the size of the earrings, and the materials I am using. Sometimes I might only make a dozen earrings in a single session, while other times I can create 50 of pairs. However, no matter how many earrings I craft, I always put a lot of care and attention into each one, making sure that they are unique, stylish, and of the highest quality. So whether you are looking for a beautiful pair of earrings to wear yourself or a thoughtful gift for someone special, you can be sure that every pair I make is crafted with passion and expertise. . . . . . . #BellaAndBlissDesign #BTSJewellery #StudioLife #CreativeProcess #CraftingMagic #DesignStudio #BehindTheBling #EarringCreation #MakerLife #CraftingMoments #EarringArtistry #BehindTheCraft #BTSBellaAndBlissDesign #ArtisanCraft #MakeWithMe #ClayIdeas #MakersMoment #SlowMadeFashion #ColourMix #HomeStudio

From love at first slab to a twist of heartbreak with every cut. Crafting earrings can be a rollercoaster of emotions, especially when you think you are onto a winner, then with every slice, the winning feeling reduces to a big fail. But it is important not to let the heartbreak of a failed design discourage you; keep pushing forward and let each setback be a stepping stone to your next masterpiece. ❤️💎 . . . . . #BellaAndBlissDesign #BTSJewellery #StudioLife #CreativeProcess #CraftingMagic #DesignStudio #BehindTheBling #EarringCreation #MakerLife #CraftingMoments #EarringArtistry #BehindTheCraft #BTSBellaAndBlissDesign #ArtisanCraft #MakeWithMe #MakersMoment #HomeStudio #BusinessJourney #BehindTheBusiness #BossBabeVibes #BusinessAdventures #HustleAndHeart #PersonalTouch #WorkLifeBalance #BossLife #MyBizJourney #BusinessBehindTheScene #WorkHardStayHumble #EntrepreneurialSpirit #HustleAndHeart

• @cristina.rocks I was in the room where it happened. This week, the Belgian prime minister stated frankly that: “Russian diamonds are blood diamonds." I almost fell over. But then speaker after speaker also said those same words. I honestly did not believe that this day would come when there is actual agreement by the Belgian government, the Antwerp World Diamond Centre, the G7, major industry leadership bodies of the #jewelry industry (such as GIA and WJI) on reform measures in #diamonds. In nearly all of the official comments -- the message was clear: if the natural diamond industry does not deal with its Russian problem *and* with traceability in honest and meaningful ways, it will betray the trust of the consumer and it will pay (suffer). That said, it’s far from a done deal, and the implementation challenge will be enormous. In contrast, and on brand, there is an alternative proposal by the World Diamond Council, which essentially seeks the unacceptable status quo in the industry. No real reforms. I have a lot more to say there but I’ll keep it comparatively classy for now. I do think the WDC is on the losing side of this. One speaker noted (and I’ll update this post if I’m corrected) that 75% of all natural (mined) diamonds go to consumers in the US and EU. If these blocs close their doors to nonsense, the status quo will change. When I look at who is involved with these negotiations, I’m also heartened. US Ambassador O’Brien’s all star team was in the audience (including the ever-humble Brad Brooks Rubin) and industry reformers like Iris Vanderveken, Susan Jacques, and others, are all leaning in. We’re finally near the tipping point. I can feel it, even if I know we all have to keep persisting. If you’d like to geek out on the dueling proposals from the Belgian govt vs WDC, you can read this excellent industry article from — who else— Rob Bates: https://www.jckonline.com/editorial-article/diamond-industry-russia-ban/ I’ll also put the link in my @cristina.rocks IG bio. #diamonds #jewellery #jewelry #responsiblebling #behindthebling @iris.vanderveken #consciousjewellerycampaign - we need responsibly mined diamonds

We’re all so passionate about these topics and are excited to engage with you on these important issues. Hope you’ll join in the conversation! If you can’t make it to a session, but still have questions, please don’t hesitate to ask us at our booths because these conversations are worth having! We can’t wait to see you next weekend! Make sure you register! #jointheconversation #letsconnect #hottopics #importanttopics #tucsongemshow #tucson2023 #ethicalgemfair #ethicalgemfairtucson #ethicalgems #responsiblegems #consciousjewelry #jewelrydesigner #jewellery #nineteen48 #morethanjustagemstone #behindthebling #gems #gemstones #knowyoursource #moyogems

'The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance' – Aristotle. Our signature finger print tread symbolises personal touch. This way you know it's made with care and the people who make it are cared for.
These are just a few of the new #sapphires from Sri Lanka. I'll be offering them for sale in my next newsletter at special "subscriber only" prices.

Some of you might know my Sri Lankan business partner (Janaka). He recently made a flying visit to London, which was our first face-to-face meeting since 2020. Needless to say it was great to catch up after such a long gap. Janaka runs our mine and cutting workshop, as well as dealing with our network of other mine owners in Sri Lanka. Without his considerable help over the last decade, @nineteen48_ltd would not be what it is today. The other bonus of Janaka's visit was that he delivered a parcel of amazing #sapphires, some of which might make it to the website one day... 💎😉💎 #sapphire #gemstones #gems #gemstone #minetomarket #morethanjustagemstone #nineteen48 #behindthebling #moyogems #responsiblesourcing #responsiblymined #responsibleluxury #ethicaljewellery #knowyoursource #ethicalgemsuppliers #ethicalgems #srilanka
