Maryniky Designs: Feature Artist

Seeing as things are a bit quiet for me on the jewellery making front at the moment, I've decided that I'm going to start featuring Artists that inspire me ... starting with Elizabeth from Evy Designs.

Elizabeth hails from Yorkshire in England, and her jewellery designs are to die for. Being a mix of contempory to classic, all her designs convey a beauty that is timeless.

Some of my favs ....

Willow Bracelet

Coralis Earrings

On the Grapevine

Peacock and Pearl Earrings

You can see more of Elizabeth's work in her blog, Etsy store, and her website.
