Canny Ellen Jewellery

Like many of you, I am feeling the excitement of spring waking everything up, colliding with a hectic life...

...my dandelion mind has been whirring away again after another successful Yard Market craft fair in Dundee...

Can we finally dare to dream of warmer weather and turning the heating doon? It feels closer and just as far away in equal measures...

...life requirements are always plotting to derail my creativity - is it something you struggle with too?

Crafting silver is not just about bending metal and polishing it to shine; it's about weaving stories into the very fabric of the jewellery

...there is nothing quite as good as face-to-face human contact to market yourself...

I have been around the internet long enough to know SEO is a thing - implementing it (or REMEMBERING to implement) is another matter...

The more I have taught myself the confident I have become, but I fell into a trap.....

Learning silver smithing has so many learning curves - filing and polishing is currently my steepest!

The ability to form, work, melt, bend, pickle, heat and repeat was a huge moment of realisation for me.
