Hi everyone.
My name is Alexandra but you can call me Alex. I’m 29 years old and live on the South East coast of England. I’m a Textile and Surface pattern graduate from Bucks or Buckinghamshire University.
While I was making crochet flowers to embellish a design I’d been working on I thought about adding some ribbon and beads to them and make them into brooches. It was then I brought my first jewellery making and I’ve never looked back.
I’ve been making jewellery for two years now and can’t get enough.
Right now my current obsession is butterflies but I also love working with geometric patterns. I love trying out new techniques, right now I’m focused on my bead weaving. It’s time-consuming and you do have to a lot of patience but the end result is well worth it.
I also love to draw and I’m a big fan of anime, manga and video games. I've just discovered the Bamboo Blade anime. It's great I can't believe I've never seen it before.
I don't play video games as much as I used to (I can never find the time) but I just got Resident Evil 6 and it's great. Any game with a great story and i'm hooked.
