How old are you? (back to top ^)
I was born on March 17, 1987 which makes me 20 at the time of writing this up.
Where do you live? (back to top ^)
I live in the greater western suburbs of Sydney, Australia.
Do you take custom orders? (back to top ^)
No, never. I believe that creativity and imagination is not something which should be forced. It should come naturally, and custom orders usually just get in the way. I am also currently a full time student working a part time job so time isn’t always on my side. That said, I also hate working under pressure.
Can you make me bead(s) like…? (back to top ^)
No!
Do you do wholesale? (back to top ^)
No, sorry.
How often do new beads come out? (back to top ^)
Providing I’m not hammered down with uni commitments, expect new beads/jewellery either on my website, etsy or ebay 1-2 a week. If you’d like to be kept up to date, make sure you join my newsletter.
Can I contact you by phone? (back to top ^)
Nope. My phone number(s) are very personal and I will never give it out to the general public. The best way to contact me is via email.
Can I visit your studio? (back to top ^)
Unfortunately my studio is in my parent’s home car garage so the answer is no. Maybe one day when I have my own personal studio set up I’ll open it to the public… but no promises.
What type of torch do you use? (back to top ^)
I use a single fuel torch otherwise known as a hothead.
What type of glass do you use? (back to top ^)
I primarily use Italian Vetrofond and Effetre, American Double Helix and Bullseye, and American-owned Creation-Is-Messy all of which are known as ‘soft glass’ or ‘soda-lime glass’.
What are the hole sizes of your beads? (back to top ^)
All hole sizes of the beads will vary but will be clearly stated on the product description.
How did you make/do ‘that’? And how do you make your lace latticino? (back to top ^)
I am entirely self-taught and everything I have learnt is through different resources which include different websites and books. If you want tips then I suggest you do some reading (but if you wanted to know how I make my lace latticino, don’t ask – sometimes it feels good to keep things to yourself). I highly recommend Corina Tettinger’s “Passing the Flame” as a book resource. I also recommend the following websites for tips and tutorials:
Where can I buy your beads? (back to top ^)
Check out this page for all the information you need to buy my beads. You can purchase my beads on ebay, etsy or on my online store.
How can I pay for them? (back to top ^)
I accept Paypal for Australian and International customers. Australian customers can also pay by Direct Deposit or Australia Post money order if purchasing through my website store or through ebay. But due to past experiences, I will not accept personal cheques!
Do you have a return policy? (back to top ^)
If you are unhappy with your purchase for any reason email me and I’ll be happy to work something out.
Who designed your website? (back to top ^)
I did! Like it? :)
Can you make me a website? (back to top ^)
No… I don’t have enough time for beads, let alone another website. I’ve ripped out numerous strands of hair to get this up and running and I don’t think I’ll have the patience to make one for someone else…
What else do you do in your spare time besides making beads? (back to top ^)
I sew. I make the little pouches that you receive your beads in!
Can you make me pouches too? (back to top ^)
No… let’s stick with beads.
Can I ask another question? (back to top ^)
If I’ve missed anything else, email me.
