Big Phew!

I dithered - I debated - I dawdled and then I did it. What did I do?  I changed stock from one website to another! Phew, it was mind bending because there was so much to remember each time, but I got there eventually. 

I have http://www.rosebudlia.co.uk/ and this is where I am (I am very proud to say) known for being the best and largest supplier of vintage plastic cabochons.  If you bead around cabochons, then Rosebudlia.co.uk is THE place to go.  But, mixed in with this site I had jewellery I had made, findings which other sellers can easily sell and other bits and bobs. I decided to take the plunge and open up another Etsy store and put all the jewellery there. (And yes, I have an existing Etsy store which you can see HERE).

I opened up SusanRoseDesigns and here I put all the jewellery I have made which, of course, is for sale.  If you haven't tried Etsy, do so, it's possibly the best thing since ..... the invention of the home computer!

Anyway, all the jewellery I make is now on Etsy.  But about my jewellery, I describe it this way ... 

My jewellery is created for those who love originality and my unique designs often challenge a wearer's comfort zone. I mix steampunk with woven beadwork, whilst also mixing beaded fabrics with polymer clay. I like to push boundaries, contrast textures and overlap styles. I also source designs from cross-cultural influences, i.e., Renaissance and Art Nouveau. I don't have a plan when I start making individual items of jewellery, the inspiration simply grows one cabochon and one stitch at a time.
I try to extend the parameters of jewellery design with innovative, ground-breaking and bold creations. My ambition is to broaden the horizons of the jewellery-making and wearing fraternity, and show that in an ever-expanding world of colour and design, there is room for today’s woman to carry off bold design and mixed media jewellery with confidence, style and panache.


If you love fabric jewellery, if you love to be different, just jave a look, hopefully you will be pleased you did .. SusanRoseDesigns

If you make anything ... anything at all ... sell on Etsy, it's the best!
