My most meta jewellery make ever - tea caddy tin earrings made from a tea tin caddy. The illustrations on my recent vintage tin finds are so pretty and as they were embossed, it made them slightly easier to cut out. I've matched them with my own hand made ceramic beads with tea leaf design and Czech glass fired beads. They sit on stainless steel wires, so good for metal allergies. . . . #teacaddy #vintagetin #vintageteatin #teatinearrings #vintagetinearrings #afternoonteaearrings #quirkyjewellery #kitschiscool #meta #metaearrings #tinearrings #tinjewellery #tinartist #ceramicbeads #potterybeads #claybeads https://www.instagram.com/p/CqJCL35o3cP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Tin is traditionally the anniversary gift for those celebrating 10 years of marriage. Some folks say that tin represents strength and resilience in a relationship or flexibility of a bond. In Japan, tin has long been used as a sacred material for Shinto rituals. I love how tin weathers over the years and how it’s possible to find vintage boxes from 50 and 60 years ago that still maintain their beautiful illustrations and patterns. Here is my latest tin creation, teardrops cut by hand featuring blue and orange flowers decorated with leaves.

It’s been a productive morning, having potted on my seedlings (tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, cayenne and aubergine) and have dropped off the remaining seedlings I don’t need with my neighbour (socially distancing obvs). I have 45 plants now to raise and if half of them survive the transplanting, I’ll be pleased. I only wish I’d done more flowers. I guess I’ll have to be satisfied with the flower jewellery I’ve been creating instead. . . .

I don’t usually work in gold but this piece of vintage toleware I cut from an old tin was calling out for some bling to match the decorative scroll design and glass flower dangle I made. . . .

I managed to create another pair of tin earrings out of that amazing dragon design vintage tin I snagged at a car boot sale. They feature a beautiful bird and orange flowers with freshwater pearl and Czech glass beads on sterling silver wire. . . .

With a cup of tea in hand, I’m celebrating 3500 sales on my #etsyshop today. It’s been 7 years in the making for The Creaking Door and like many other #etsysellers and #handmade makers out there, I’m constantly on a learning curve. I’m indebted to my amazing husband Steve (@eurogig) who has supported me throughout this fantastic journey and I’m so lucky to receive a wealth of help and advice from family and friends. And I’m so grateful to all my fabulous customers, many of whom come back to support me over and over again. I’m truly grateful because really I am living a dream. Because of you. Thank you. . . . #celebratingsuccess #gratitudeattitude #etsysellersofinstagram #etsy #handmadejewelry #livingthedream #upcycling #upcycled #tin #tinjewelry #tinjewellery #tinjewelryartist #vintage #vintagetin #upcycledtin #upcycledtinjewelry #tinnecklace (at Londonthorpe and Harrowby Without, South Kesteven) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7yCqilhWgp/?igshid=87ctsbl23qdl

It’s been a while since I’ve made any #upcycled #tinjewellery despite continually picking up fabulous #vintagetins on my travels. The one I’m working on now was a #toleware tin unusually in red (rather than black) picked up courtesy of a good friend of mine at a Kings Day flea market we visited in Utrecht. It’s been quite pleasurable to pick out key motifs from the tin, use my die punch to cut the shapes and pair each piece with beads and stones from my collection. Swipe to see a small part of my tin hoard that I hope to begin working on next. After flowers, I think it may be time for #dragons. . . . #tolewaretin #tinjewelry #tinearrings #upcycledjewelry #upcycledjewellery #upcycling #oldintonew #vintagetin #tincollection #artsandcrafts #tinart #tinartist #assemblagejewelry #assemblageart #behindthescenes #studio #makersstudio #jewellerydesign #caravanstudio #craftcaravan (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7IxR-qhbL0/?igshid=10g6kykryetvc
