I design and make pretty much what I want using textiles, fibres or metals. Woolly Daydreams is the showcase for all my work.
Any items for sale are available in my ETSY shop, directly from me and from shows I attend at various venues in West Wales.
I have now closed my dedicated jewellery website, www.metaljewellerystudio.co.uk to bring everything together under the Woolly Daydreams Banner.
My adventures with a needle and thread or yarn started when very young. Many gifts were made for family members along with clothes and accessories for dolls. My professional life has been in the world of fashion and textiles, working on the practical side of the industry from design through pattern making and the construction of bespoke garments and accessories. I have created clothing, accessories, soft furnishings and decorative textiles for as long as I can remember. There are still techniques, stitches, media and styles of working to be explored. Sometimes too much choice makes it difficult to decide what to land on next!
Armour, metal artefacts and jewellery from ancient and medieval times has also been a fascination since childhood.
To counter balance my textile work I love to create with hard resistant metals.
My partner is a full time blacksmith. His work can be seen at www.alanperryblacksmith.co.uk
With metal working being an intrinsic part of our lives it is hard to resist the call of copper and silver plated wires as well as reclaimed copper pipe. Its easy to spend time forming it into jewellery.
