Me me me

Hello! I’m Eleanor — jewellery maker, background actor, and professional collector of tiny sparkly things.

Welcome to my little corner of the internet, where every piece of jewellery has a story — sometimes dramatic, sometimes chaotic, always heartfelt.

I’m based in beautiful Greystones, Co. Wicklow, and I make one-of-a-kind and limited edition jewellery using a mix of repurposed stones, rescued beads, vintage treasures, found buttons, resin and my ever-growing stash of sparkly bits. If you’re imagining overflowing boxes and the occasional bead rolling under the settee — yes, that’s exactly it.

🌿 How It All Started (or: The Accidental Jewellery Business)

Like so many good stories, mine starts in the middle of COVID.
I needed a creative outlet that wasn’t baking banana bread or doomscrolling, so I picked up some beads and a few tools… and instantly fell down the rabbit hole.

One pair of earrings turned into ten.
Ten turned into a hobby.
The hobby turned into, “Maybe I’ll open a little shop, sure what’s the harm?”
And before I knew it, I was running a full jewellery business out of my home studio — resin on my elbows, pliers in my pockets, and more ideas than time.

I’m completely self-taught, which means everything you see here comes from endless experimenting, learning, failing, fixing, and trying again. No fancy degrees — just passion, curiosity, and a slight addiction to making things shine.

✨ What I Make (and Why It’s Not Like What Everyone Else Makes)

My pieces are:

  • One-of-a-kind or limited edition

  • Handmade in small batches

  • Infused with personality

  • Often made with repurposed or reclaimed materials

I genuinely can’t replicate pieces — even if I try. I’m not built for mass production; I’m built for making jewellery that feels personal, thoughtful, and a little bit magical.

You’ll also find:

  • Resin pieces (tiny colourful worlds you can wear)

  • Pre-Loved restorations (old trinkets rescued and brought back to life)

Every piece has a little bit of story to it — even if the story is “I found this bead at the bottom of a charity shop box and nearly cried with joy.”

💜My Philosophy: Jewellery Should Spark Joy

I want the people who wear my pieces to feel:

  • brighter,

  • bolder,

  • more themselves,

  • and just a little bit glam — even on a Tuesday.

I believe jewellery doesn’t need to match an outfit; it needs to match you.
Whether you’re a statement earring person, a subtle sparkle person, or a “give me leopard print everything” person — there’s something here for you.

🎬 A Little Extra About Me

When I’m not making jewellery, I’m often working as a background actor in films and TV. I’ve been everything from werewolf, drug addict, witch, meth lab worker and SOCO to “blurred person walking in the distance"and "woman in pub" (seem to be a bit typecast here, can't work out why...).” It’s great fun and mildly surreal… and it absolutely fuels my creativity.

I draw inspiration from:

  • old Hollywood glamour

  • music

  • vintage fashion

  • nature around Greystones

  • and the gorgeous people I meet on set who always want to see what I’ve made this week

Basically, I make jewellery for people who love pieces with personality, history, humour, and heart.

Running this little handmade business is one of the joys of my life. Every order, every message, every “I wore your earrings and got compliments!” makes me do a happy little jig in the kitchen.

Have a look around, make yourself at home, and if you ever want something custom, sentimental, quirky, or inspired by a favourite memory — I’d absolutely love to create it for you.
