A sad bunny post this evening letting you all know that Louis recently died 😞.

Louis was a shy and gentle soul who enjoyed his fenugreek treats and sitting on top of the bunny castle. He also liked hiding amongst the leaves in the garden, as you can see here.

For all of us who have animals in our lives we know how awful it is when they are no longer with us 😢. All we can do is remember we loved and cared for them and gave them happy lives.

An ultimate upcycle this evening 😊. Here Sally has taken her customer's mixture of stones and gold to create this pendant.

What I particularly like about this piece is the variation in the sizes, shapes and colours of the different stones, yet they all come together in this lovely design. Sally was also able to form the settings from melted down gold, again all supplied by her customer.

I would love to know the stories behind the different stones and where they came from. Also, anyone want to have a go at naming the different stones? 🕵️ And no, you can't just say, 'green, black small and big!' 🤣. Stick your answers in the comments and let's see who is the gemologist in our midst 😁.

If you have a stash of stones or even just one or two, that you would like made into something special, do ping Sally a message.

Welcome to June! 🤞 The sunshine reappears soon! June is one of those months with multiple birthstones: moonstone and pearls. I wonder if June born people choose one or go for both? 😁?

Don't forget, you can ping Sally a message if you'd like to commission a piece.

Well, that's May almost done! And for anyone who needs a reminder May is the month of the emerald. So, to round off a month full of bank holidays, Living Crafts and weather that has gone from almost zero to 35 here are some reminders of Sally's emerald work.

It's an eclectic mix of commissions, items held in stock, and some beautiful antique repairs too.

See you all next month.

Something a bit different from Sally this evening, which is actually quite shocking and shows just how careful you need to be when choosing your jeweller.

Recently a customer visited Sally wanting to sell an amount of different carat gold and some platinum. Sally was able to offer her customer over £4000 for the precious metals: a substantial amount of cash.

The shocking thing is this customer had been to a different gold buyer and been offered just over £2000! Now either that is someone who has no idea about the value, or is trying to scam the customer by taking a huge cut for themselves. Either way it would have left the customer seriously underpaid for the jewellery they were selling for scrap, which is quite shocking.

Perhaps it's worth sharing a few pointers from Sally if you are looking to sell old gold or platinum. Sally says:
❌ Don't accept the first offer you are made.
❌ Don't be pressured into selling, always leave the shop to compare prices.

Instead, to ensure you get a fair price Sally recommends:
✅ Do ask lots of questions
✅ Do visit a reputable jeweller
✅ Do make sure your jeweller has experience in assessing your metals

A professional, experienced jeweller will always:
✅ Give you a fair price
✅ Will not pressure you to sell
✅ Will be happy to give you a quote first.

Thank goodness, on this occasion the customer didn't take the first amount offered and did visit Sally.

Please do share this post as there are some unscrupulous gold buyers out there.

After the advertising post last week, here's the follow-up. Sally and Emma goodwin creations had a busy time last weekend. Lots of people participated in workshops, making these lovely pendants.

I am always intrigued that such non-delicate tool produce such delicate items!

Many thanks to those of you who attended and sought out Sally and Emma's stand. Hopefully this weekend is a bit less frenetic for them 😁.

Don't worry if you missed the Living Crafts event, you can always drop by File and Forge in Sawbridgeworth to see more fabulous jewellery. Or visit the File and Forge website to learn more about classes and to sign up too.

Sally and Emma have been busy setting up the stand today.

The show opens at 10am tomorrow! A few behind the scenes pics of the set-up all ready for lots of sparkle to arrive in the morning.

For anyone who hasn't done a show they are a huge amount of work before the event even starts, especially if you are running a workshops alongside a retail section too. Just remembering everything you will need is a spreadsheet nightmare 😱. Though I am sure Sally and Emma have it all under control 😁🧘‍♀️

Hopefully some of you will be able to visit Living Crafts at the beautiful and historic Hatfield House from Thurs through to Sunday.

05/05/2026

You'll find Emma goodwin creations and Sally Andrews Jewellery in the birch tent all weekend.

We'll be teaching ring and pendant workshops over the 4 days File & Forge

It's May! Which means Living Crafts at Hatfield House is less than a week away. Sally and Emma will be there, running workshop in the Birch Pavillion and selling lots of lovely jewellery. Do visit the Living Crafts website to check for spaces on the mini-courses.

Living Crafts opens on Thursday 7th through to Sunday 10th May.

One final post as we zoom towards May and the huge Living Crafts festival starting on 7th May! Sally will be there with her business partner, Emma, on the File & Forge stand.

Anyway, back to now. This is one of my favourite ultimate upcycles by Sally. Here she has taken a bar brooch, set with diamonds and a ruby and converted it into a ring.

I know this sounds super easy, but my guess is that it is far more complicated than it sounds! After all how do you make sure the settings stay in place and things don't go wonky?! 🤔 (Note my very non-jeweller view of things 🤣.)

Putting my lack of technical jargon to one-side, the diamonds and ruby have rub-over settings in white gold, set into yellow 18ct gold. A lovely piece!

More soon with details on Living Crafts and where to find Sally.
