by our hands we make our way

Making anything right now is a radical act in defiance of fear: making something however simple seeming – baking bread, making the bed; making art or a garden; a stiff drink or your mind up. It’s time to get creative and figure out how to keep our fingers busy, hearts full and souls satisfied. Time to roll sleeves up and get those hands dirty (as long as you wash ’em before and afterwards!) Finding ways to continue connections and sustain friendship feels so important, we’re glad that you’re a part of our community. Whatever comes next we have to make it together. Even if we can’t be with you here there are things that we’d like to share. There are tools at the workshop waiting for hands to use them. We’ll be glad to see shavehorses, benchhooks, chopping blocks, mallets and whittling tools loaned out to good homes, keeping folk crafting. We were so lucky to recieve a lot of wood before the doors closed, we’d love to see it go out to people who can use it. Let us know if you’d like a delivery of fresh green cherry, birch, whitebeam or oak. There are books in the library that could keep you busy learning something new over the next weeks and months. We’re working online too, hosting a shared space to chip away at whatever you feel like. Making a place to talk, weep, dance, laugh while we carve something beautiful together. Fridays are a good time to try, if someone is in the studio then you are virtually welcome to sit and have a cuppa, what’s on your mind?

willow moon jewellery

Hi, I’m Jo the designer/maker here at Willow Moon HQ, based in Derbyshire. I’ve been making jewellery for many years, starting with beaded jewellery and attended my first fair back in 1989. But I’d always had a yearning to learn traditional silversmithing skills and was able to start my training back in 2000, thanks to a local gallery offering silver classes and my passion grew from there. I have since attended many different classes in various mediums to develop my craft. I create handcrafted jewellery using traditional metailsmithing and wire wrapping techniques, creating pieces in sterling silver, copper and semi-precious stones. My style is influenced by art nouveau, with inspiration from nature, the textures and shapes from the natural world. I’m really looking forward to adding my handcrafted jewellery to my website, alongside my “Willow Moon Wish” range of earrings and wish bracelets. The earrings are 925 sterling silver, cast in the UK and I create all of the cards, using recycled kraft card. I also teach wire wrapping, usually holding workshops throughout the year in Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire.
