It's Mother's Day on Sunday! πŸ₯°
Are you still searching for the perfect gift? 🎁
We have a range of beautiful hanging hearts which are all ready to post (they will be sent with a ribbon loop) and can have your own personalised message written on the back! We can post directly if required πŸ˜‰

Also there a huge variety of jewellery options which can be customised - the pendants can be put onto silver chains or black cords, and we have a few pairs which can either be separated and made into pendants or put onto earring hooks for beautiful drop earrings 😊

Pretty much everything shown here can be customised and dispatched this week.
I can also do personalised orders but they will take a few days to create, so may not arrive in time for Mother's Day, but are perfect gifts for any other time! 😊

Pendants are Β£10
Hanging hearts are Β£10
Earring pairs are Β£10
Postage is Β£2 sent First Class (unless ordering abroad or larger quantities)

Please feel free to comment on individual photos, but if you wish to order, then please also send a pm with a screenshot of the items you want, as sometimes comments get missed.

I recently sent out a custom order for 4 hanging hearts made in the colours that their dogs wear! (Plus a Ukraine heart πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦)
I was given free rein for the rainbow/multi coloured one, and I really love it! 🌈

Can any of my doggy friends work out who this order was for based on the colours?! (Green and orange was a gift for someone else)

Posted this little beauty out yesterday and it has been well received πŸ˜πŸ’™

It's a bit daunting making pieces to order, so it's a relief when they turn out as planned and the customer is happy 😊

Some people request messages for the back of their hearts, and this one really summed up the feeling of support πŸ’™πŸ’›πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦

Wow, what a mad few days it has been since my 'little' idea to make πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ Ukraine πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ themed items!
I only made a few initially....but since Wednesday I have worked so hard in my tiny workspace to produce enough to meet demand, and have just sent out a large batch of parcels, many of them containing multiple items, to people all over the country!
I hope you all like your treasures, and can wear/display them with pride.

Thank you SO much for your support!
I have just under Β£300 to give to a charity thanks to your orders πŸ’™πŸ’›πŸ’™πŸ’›

05/03/2022

Such a good idea, I wish I'd thought of it myself! 😁
Someone asked if the pendants could work as a keyring too.....
"Hold my beer..."
Ta Da! πŸͺ„

I'm teaching all day today in my 'other' job as a dog trainer, but tomorrow I will be packing huge numbers of parcels ready to post on Monday 😁

04/03/2022

Absolutely blown away by all the orders received for the πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ Ukraine πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ products! These are all dry and ready for the next stage but I need at least double this! I already have over Β£200 to gift to an aid charity, so thank you everyone for the support! πŸ’™πŸ’›πŸ’™πŸ’›

03/03/2022

Making my next batch of πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ hearts and I was left with excess yellow resin, so I made this as a one off! The glitter is slowly migrating down the heart as it dries 🀣 but it's still really pretty!
If anyone that has ordered wants to swap for this, or if anyone wants to order this one, it's first come first served. I'll still class this one in my Ukraine donations. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦

03/03/2022

It seems like a small gesture but I wanted to do something to show support.
So I've made some πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ Ukraine πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ hearts and pendants, which I will sell for Β£10 each (+p&p) and give Β£7 per purchase to a humanitarian charity helping the victims of war.

The hearts will be finished with black chalkboard back and ribbon loop, and you can choose to leave it plain, have something personal written on, or receive a mini chalk stick to write your own message if you wish.
The pendants will be on a black cord necklace.

I've only made a few for now but if there is enough interest then I will make more! πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦

✨ Naturally, because I love sparkle, they are all lightly dusted with beautiful fine glitter to make them shimmer 😍
(Can be made without glitter if that's not your thing πŸ˜‰)

I've had great fun making some custom orders recently, after posting my special orange one that I made for my dog Jaffa 🧑

πŸ–€πŸ€I made a special black and white one to imitate the colouring/markings of a lovely spaniel who celebrates his 15th birthday next week β™₯

πŸ’™Some stunning blues too, as requested by a dog owner for her boy dogs!

πŸ’ŸπŸ’šA cool combo of pink and green as specified by a customer 🀩

Then some freestyling with the extra resin, experimenting with designs. And as always, some jewellery too, using the colours I've worked with.

Absolutely loving the stunning holographic glitters from my supplier...what do you think?
πŸ€”

N.B. any of these can be replicated although there is no guarantee they will be identical - resin has a mind of it own!

I've been experimenting with different colours and designs, and some stunning textures and glitters!
Am I the only one that is obsessed with sparkles? 😍🀩

The next batch of Sheepy Hearts are now ready to sell!
2 are gone already so just 4 left 😁

I'm experimenting with other colour combos and designs, so watch this space.... PM me if you have any special requests!

These make lovely little gifts for any occasion, and can be personalised as required.

11/02/2022

More options for the hanging hearts!

Photos from BecCreates's post 10/02/2022

The hanging hearts have been so popular, not just for valentine's but for gifts and little personal treats too.
So here's a new batch! More of the popular red and gold, plus some red and silver too.
Then some mini beach scenes and ocean colours. Plus the remaining available extra colours.

Some of these are sold already but there will be more on the way! If there's anything you particularly want, please PM me to order/request.

Every single one is completely unique! Due to the nature of resin, even the same designs will be slightly different to others. I do my best to replicate but I cannot promise that they will be identical.

For reference, they are 12cm width and length.
They are finished with black chalkboard paint on the back (and a mini stick of chalk is available if required), metallic edging paint and hanging on a white ribbon loop.
The standard price is Β£7 plus p&p.
The sheepy hearts are Β£10 due to being more complex to make.

10/02/2022

I'm so happy with these little treasures! πŸ˜πŸ‘

What a perfect way to say "I love ewe" 🀣 at any time of year, for anyone special to you, not just on Valentine's.

These are Β£10 just because they are a little more labour intensive.
I only have 2 for sale right now but can make more 😊
Please PM if you'd like to buy x

09/02/2022

It's so exciting to be receiving orders for my work, I'm so grateful!
Please can I ask that if you are interested in ordering, please can you PM me, because Facebook often does not notify me of comments and then I miss them.
Just pop a screenshot or description of the item you want, or a request for something you'd like created, and I'll see what I can do. 😊

Here's a little beach art for you all 🌊😎

Photos from BecCreates's post 09/02/2022

Love how these hanging hearts have turned out!
Now edged in metallic paint, and backed with black chalkboard paint, hanging on white ribbon.
I send them with a little stick of white chalk so you can write your own personal message on the back!
Only Β£7
(Photos of all available designs so far, but i can create additional colours or designs if required)

Yesterday I showed the beginning of the process...the dirty pour with a mix of 4 colours.
Here is the end product.... Added to with bronze ink and vintage bronze mineral flakes, along with some subtle silver molten metal spray.

This can be just a simple piece of wall art, or can be converted into a wall clock 😊

Rather pleased with this abstract piece. The pour of colours didn't come out quite as expected but it's really pretty.
I need to video it to try and capture all the colours properly!

07/02/2022

I am so thrilled to have almost 300 page likes in just a few days! Thank you so much!

Here's one of my weekend creations. It's known as a 'dirty pour' when you mix up multiple colours like this and just dump them together.
You have no control over the way the colours are expressed and blended, so you get something quite abstract and unpredictable. I like discovering how it will evolve, and then working out how best to embellish it with additional colours and textures.

I'll show the finished product later 😁

Thank you so much everyone for all the page likes and wonderful supportive comments 😁
I am really feeling the love πŸ₯°β€οΈ

Here are a few little Valentine's hearts I've made. I'm putting black chalkboard paint on the back so you can write your own message to your loved one 😊
I can provide ribbon to make this a hanging decoration if required 🀩

*It's so hard to capture the colours and sparkles in still photos....if you'd like a closer look at any of them I can do a little video clip to show them better 😊

Here's some things I made for my beautiful little niece Sienna for her first Christmas 🌲
They now adorn her playroom 😊

The sheepy πŸ‘ artwork was a challenge set by my sister to replicate some art made from glass that she'd seen. I don't think it's bad for a first attempt!

04/02/2022

I started experimenting with resin in September 2021, when I wanted to learn a brand new skill and hobby that was totally different to my life and day job of working with dogs. It has certainly been a fabulous escape - a few hours here and there when I am completely immersed and trying to discover my inner creative!
I 'think' I see improvements, as I learn how to use the resin and make it do what I want!
This picture shows my first attempt at creating a wave πŸŒŠπŸ˜¬πŸ™ˆ but then it also shows my second attempt! 🌊
Getting there! πŸ’ͺ

It's been a steep learning curve and every make teaches me something new.
The one thing I've had to learn is that when it comes to art.... everyone's tastes are completely unique and different.
What one person loves, another hates. One person's idea of a flaw is another person's perfection πŸ‘Œ

I've really struggled with my perfectionism, and imposter syndrome.
I've had this page set up for 4 months but have been too afraid to share it or any of my work.

I made some Christmas decorations to sell....but I was too afraid that people wouldn't like them or they looked too ameteur. πŸ™ˆπŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ
...so big deep breath....I'm just going to start sharing, no matter what I think.

And I'm just going to make things that I love. So expect lots of sparkles 😍🀩 and colours and textures. They may not be bang 'on trend' but I'm not aiming for that....I want to make things that I like, and if anyone else likes them too, then it's a bonus 😁

Everything I post will be available for sale, so if you like anything, just ask.
I may be able to make some things to order but resin is temperamental and I'm still learning, so I make no promises!

Photos really don't do these justice! The colours in the glitter are incredible, and the shine and shimmer in the resin is so hard to capture!

⭐ A range of jewellery all made with silver plated bezels.
⭐ Can be on a black cord or silver chain.
