March 2024

Hello

Spring has officially sprung, heralding a season of renewal and fresh beginnings! There's something magical about watching nature awaken, with blossoms and buds decorating the trees, filling us with hope and anticipation for the sunny days ahead. With daylight lingering longer, I am drawn to my workbench, inspired by the energy of the season. As I craft new pieces of jewellery, I can't help but look forward to the exciting events and opportunities that lie ahead in the coming months. Here's to embracing the spirit of Spring and all the possibilities it brings!

Rebellious Times

I recently participated in a Rebel Business School training course as featured in the Stratford Herald! Guided by two exceptional course leaders and surrounded by a dynamic group of local entrepreneurs, the experience was nothing short of inspiring. Together, we delved into innovative strategies for starting and expanding small businesses, all while emphasising the importance of passion-driven focus and risk-taking without the constraints of traditional business plans or debt. Who would have imagined that a business training course could be this enjoyable? It's proof that with the right mindset and community support, entrepreneurship truly knows no bounds!

Recent makes: Hammered silver flower pendants with pink kunzite and turquoise

I'm thrilled to share that I've been awarded the Emerge Bursary, granting me the opportunity to participate in Warwickshire Open Studios' 2024 Summer Art Weeks. It's truly an honour to receive this.

Behind the Scenes

Remember last month when I shared some photos of my creative process? Well, I'm excited to take it a step further and share a short video with you! Join me at my jewellery workbench as I craft a silver ring and flower earrings and necklace. It's a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the artistry behind Paula Wilkinson Jewellery.
