Hello and welcome. I make jewellery out of hand rolled paper beads which I sell in aid of the St Wilfrid's centre for vulnerable and homeless adults. Check out their website https://www.stwilfridscentre.org/

I use recycled paper and I get inspiration from the colour of the paper and whichever pre-loved beads I could find to complement my design - This means that no two pieces are alike.

I add new creations every few weeks, so please feel free to come and browse again and again for that one-of-a-kind piece. If you like what you see and want to buy more than one piece, then please let me know as I am very happy to combine postage for you.

You have 14 days, from receipt, to notify the seller if you wish to cancel your order or exchange an item.

Unless faulty, the following types of items are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to your specific requirements; items which deteriorate quickly (e.g. food), personal items sold with a hygiene seal (cosmetics, underwear) in instances where the seal is broken; digital items.

Please note that if your order is being posted outside mainland UK, you (or the recipient) may have to pay customs or VAT charges and a handling fee. The seller is not responsible for any charges or fees that may incur.

I love working with old maps and was delighted to be given this 1946 Ordnance Survey map of Cornwall showing the areas around Newquay and Padstow. Made a few pairs of earrings of different shapes and styles. This pair was made by rolling the paper into long thin tubes and adorning the beads with preloved vibrant green glass beads.

The overall drop of the earrings is just under 7 cm from the tip of the gold plated earring hook to the bottom bead.

The earrings make quite a statement with the multicoloured map patterns and are light to wear. One of the beads says 'Bocastle' on it.

Please note that, as I work with recycled paper, and with whatever design is on a page, the beads are not identical.

My jewellery is sold in aid of the St Wilfrid's centre for vulnerable, socially excluded and homeless adults.
