Caprilicious Jewellery - a great site I met Neena a couple of days ago when she contacted me about my zentangles. This lady makes some of the most beautiful and unique jewellery I've seen. She had made a "zentangle inspired necklace" and wanted to use a couple of my pictures. I agreed and went to have a look at her site and her blog and Oh my! I was so inspired. Her handmade creations are truly something special and her blog is lovely to read. After spending some time on her site and blog I felt the need to spread the word. I only ever write about and recommend sites that I find truly inspiring and this one definitely fits that category.
If you like unique things you will love her jewellery. The Dew Fairies Dream Collar below are Neena's own words taken from her site. I design for the woman who likes to be noticed - stylish, individual,confident, with a sense of humour and a zest for life - Delicious jewellery for the capricious woman - Caprilicious!
I try to make traditional pieces once in a while, but by the time the finished article appears in my hands, there is always something that has crept in to make it different - a contrasting bead, an asymmetrical focal piece, a beautiful clasp. I have tried - I really have, believe me, to make simple, 'nice' designs, but failed miserably - so now I let rip and let inspiration take me where she will. You can find her sites here
