Restringing and repairs
Bringing broken treasured jewellery back to life.
I can restring broken strings of beads and other beaded necklaces & beaded bracelets.
NB I prefer to not use elastic as in my experience elastic bracelets break far too easily.
Replace broken or lost clasps or ear hooks. These are usually silver or gold plate although other options are available.
Change ear hooks to clips or vice versa.
NB I can provide ear hooks as sterling silver or gold and silver plate, my ear clips are silver or gold plate only
I can also use beads from your old treasured pieces to make other jewellery for you to wear or gift to others.
I also have a large selection of beads in my stock which I might be able to use to replace lost beads or add beads to jewellery designs.
Please take a look at my jewellery designs in my shop to give you an idea of the of styles of jewellery I make, if your broken jewellery resembled any of these styles of bead jewellery I might well be able to re make your jewellery for you, in which case please bring your jewellery along to one of the craft fairs I will be attending where I can take a look at it and discuss possibilities with you.
Please feel free to contact me beforehand with a photo to check if it is something I can sort for you
Approximate prices for guidance only
Simple beaded bracelet re-string from £10
Simple beaded necklace 6mm beads re-string from £15
Ear hooks replacement from £5

Please note due to large demand I am currently only taking on jewellery restringings for people who visit my stall at craft fairs locally, so I can talk in person about the jewellery and hand back the completed restrung items in person too.
If my situation changes I will update these details
In the meantime if you are unable to visit me my stall hopefully you can find a bead jewellery maker local to you who might well be able to take a look at your jewellery for you instead

Swapping hooks for clips
Don't have pierced ears - not a problem
I can exchange the majority of my earhooks over to ear clips
Please message me for more information
Bead Jewellery Commissions
I am happy to take on Commission orders.
Whether it is a simple switch of ear hooks to ear clips from my online store or an 8 inch bracelet making to 7 inches instead.
Or you would like me to design and make a special tiara or set of matching jewellery. Whatever your jewellery dreams are please contact me to arrange an appointment so we can discuss your custom made bespoke jewellery.
