Its a lovely shop run by Clare Peacock in Helmsley, near York. I met the team at the British Craft Trade Fair this year and they placed an order with me at the show. Currently in transit is a lovely selection of pieces from my Enduring Love, Echoes and Antique Silverware collections. You can find […]
Sometimes when I’m feeling a bit crap and that annoying sense of self deprecation starts creeping in, I hunt out work by other artists and makers that I love and read what they have to say about their practice. It makes me feel instantly better knowing that there are so many like minded people out […]
Last December I had the pleasure of being Jeweller of the month at The Ropewalk in Barton Upon Umber. This opportunity came about through meeting the gallery team at the British Craft Trade Fair last year. I met them again at the the show this year and they placed an order for my new collection […]

The beginning of April is always totally hectic at Miloamde HQ. Not only does my son’s birthday fall at the start of the month, it’s also always the last week of school before the Easter holidays and I have to plan a birthday party just as I’m in the midst of getting ready to travel […]

My brass lapel pins have become quite a thing of late. I sold so many in the run up to Christmas that it made me realise they’re not just a one off thing. People love them and I’ve had so much fun lately making a range of speech bubble pins. Customers and followers on Instagram […]
Well hello there! We’re midway through January and I still haven’t done my tax return! I thought what better way to procrastinate than to add a new feature to my website and write a blog post all about it all. So here I am doing just that. Getting feedback from customers is amazing. It helps […]
As you’ll know, if you read this journal, I recently went down to Leeds for the weekend. The reason for my visit was the opening of the ‘Every Picture Tells a Story’ exhibition at Sunny Bank Mills in Farsley. I was exhibiting some of my new work alongside some other lovely talented folk including Emma […]
I got a lovely email in the run up to Christmas. A customer wanting to commission me to make a pendant for his wife that incorporated the initials of their children. He was open to ieas and that his wife would appreciate the recycled/reuse nature of my work. I had a look through my collections […]
I met two lovely ladies at my Open Studios event in September this year. They came to visit me for a very specific reason – because I’m the spoon lady who transforms antique silverware into wearable heirlooms – so could I make them a set of Promise Rings from their family silver. They brought some […]
I’ve just added a new Brass Pin to my online shop. It’s a tiny little guitar measuring just 4cm high and 1.5cm wide. It’s so goddamn cute! It’d make a perfect gift for any music lover or guitar player. I’m going to have to make one for myself as it’s so adorable. I made it […]
On Friday night I went to the opening of the Winter Exhibition at our local gallery in Kinghorn. This year they’re showing a selection of work from 14 local artists and I’m amongst that selection. It was a great night and there’s a really good mix of work to peruse and buy. I’ve got a […]
A new collection of brass pins is now available in my online shop. There are currently 5 designs available, but I have tons of ideas for more, so the collection is going to steadily grow and grow. You will have seen these pins in progress recently on my Instagram grid as it seems that’s all […]

What a month I’ve had – If you’ve been following me on Instagram, you’ll know all about it. The sleepless nights… As well as the time I’ve had to take off work this month to accommodate chicken-pox…The October break… and the possibility of getting selected for Jury Service (which thankfully didn’t happen). Around all of […]
