About Me

My photo
My love affair with fabrics and fashion started during childhood, I was encouraged by a clever mum who was always on her machine experimenting. Designing and the creative process keeps me just about sane. At the moment jewellery is my passion as; after all it is the little things in life that are truly precious. For me it its the process of making - working 30 hours a week doesn't leave much time to indulge this hobby. In the past I tended to give a lot of it away or remake once I have achieved the photo I want to make into another item. I'm now starting to sell though which is great, would be lovely to do this full time though. I am currently uploading vintage items I no longer have use for so please feel free to check out my little etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/HollyDaise

HELLO DOLLY!!!!

 
The most fabulous Dolly Divine modelling the neckpiece 'D for Divine' inspired and made especially for the lovely lady herself! 

Really exciting to see my designs modelled professionally, totally new experience for me.  Very happy with the outcome.

D for Divine

I have been thinking for a long time of expanding into the wedding and burlesque market as I would like to develop my range to include corsetry as I have made a few steel boned numbers and wedding dresses in the past.

I have been thinking of finding a model in this area to model this area of work and have finally found the perfect choice.

So introducing....................................the very lovely Dolly Divine.http://www.missdollydivine.com/
                     

And the piece of costume jewellary which she inspired,
one of many to come. Hopefully I will soon be posting
the photos of this piece modelled.

Its been too long!!!



Gosh how time flies.  Since I last updated my blog I've been home to NZ for a bit for some much needed R&R and family time.

I've been busy manufacturing new pieces and I've found a lovely lady to model my collections.

So watch this space as I may have some professional piccys to post before too long!!!

Okay, so the big floral necklace is for my friend. I guess it is all self explanatory, assemblage pendants and oversized fob bracelets.  Hope you like them?

Blooming Marvellous!

New pretty necklacel. Please excuse the naked model, she simply refused to put on a robe!  Very difficult to work with.
