Hello lovelies! How are you? Have you been taking advantage of the Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals flying around on the internet?
I have to admit, I’ve bought nothing this weekend! I actually spent a computer-free weekend up at Coolum Beach in a holiday house with a bunch of friends. It was a big party to celebrate one of my friends’ 30th birthday, and we did very little other than swim, chat, and enjoy the gorgeous almost-summer weather. Well, a few of us did get up early on Sunday morning to climb Mt Coolum before a dip in the surf, so it wasn’t all sitting around…
I took the chance to have a weekend off before I hit the ground running today – I know I’m not going to get another break until I close up shop in mid-December – Christmas orders are coming in thick and fast, and there’s a huge amount of work to do! I love this time of year – wrapping gifts, writing personalised notes for customers, creating beautiful things to brighten someone’s day.
It’s a busy – and sometimes stressful time – but it’s awesome too. There’s a celebratory mood in the air as people gear up for the big holiday.
So! Before I hit the jewellery bench today, I thought I’d pop in and let you know about this week’s special. It’s the Tri-Metal Nested Necklace (the all-sterling version has been a HUGE hit over the last few years).
I love the contrast between the three metals – brass, copper and sterling silver – all polished on my buffer to a lovely shine. The fun thing about this necklace is that you can wear it 2 ways – nested together, or hung in a chain. The hoops are around 2cm in diameter, and the necklace itself is 18 inches (of course, you know I can make your necklace any length you like, as I make each one myself – I just charge an extra $3 per inch of chain).
You can have a closer look over here. The Tri-Metal Nested Necklace is normally $47 – but this week it’s just $39.
Crazy-cheap, I know, but hey, you guys are worth it.
Okay, I’m outta here – have an awesome day!
P.S. If you live outside Australia, remember that you’ve only got until THIS FRIDAY to order from me for Christmas! After the 1st I can’t guarantee that international orders will arrive prior to Christmas. Not sure what to get someone? Keep an eye on your inbox for my Epheriell Gift Guide later this week.
Hurrah! Today’s the day I launch Vintette -and for you, that means a week of special deals!
I’ve been squirreling away, making, photographing, writing descriptions… and now, the shop is filling up, and it’s time to share it with you all!
So, here’s the deal – each day this week – starting today, and ending Sunday – I’m going to announce a different special here and on the Vintette Facebook page. Each special will run for that day only – so if you like the sound of it, don’t wait!
What sort of earrings? Well, have a peek… and just leave your colour preference in the ‘message to seller’ when you checkout, along with the code TUESDAYDEAL. This deal is valid as long as it’s before midnight Tuesday where you are – that means you don’t have to check your timezone against mine!
Well, I’ve been cultivating a growing obsession with vintage dresses… and as much as I love my Epheriell jewellery, it doesn’t really ‘go’ with that style of clothing.
I wanted a range of lovely, sweet jewellery that would compliment the style I am growing into, and, well, I got inspired!
So, I decided to make a range of jewellery to indulge myself, and hope that others liked what I made, too.
For the foreseeable future, I’ll be making and adding new designs to Vintette – Epheriell will remain my main income-source and main line – Vintette is, for now, more a bit of fun on the side But who knows?
I hope you find something you like, and keep reading this week to see a new special deal every day! (Oh, and I’ll also be adding new designs to the shops each day…)

Sometimes, I think I might be mad. But when I get an idea in my head that sticks, there’s nothing for it but to jump in and make it happen!
So it is with Vintette – the new jewellery line I will be launching this year! As I’ve become more enamoured of vintage clothes and vintage style, I started wanting more vintage-style jewellery. Well, one thing led to another, and many, many dollars later, I have a swathe of supplies ready to create my very own vintage and vintage-inspired jewellery range!
Vintette is very different to Epheriell in almost every way – it’s going to be more affordable, it uses vintage components and brass wherever necessary, and it has a very different feel.
Today, I have spent a lovely few hours just pottering in my studio – not making things because I have to, but for the sheer joy of it – and I thought I might share some of the first Vintette pieces here with you today! And so, a sneak peek at what’s in store…
What do you think? I had such fun making these, and I have so much more to create! I’m not launching for a little while yet – I want to get a full range together first – but if you’d like to keep an eye on Vintette, just pop over and Like the Facebook Page.
