Here's my bright and beautiful Christmas bauble necklaces based on the ones I used to hang on my parents' silver and white tinsel Christmas tree. The 70's ones were very shiny with white glitter. Mine sadly don’t have the glitter, but I found the shiniest leather & the brightest neon leather in my studio to make them. What would Christmas be without a bit of vintage nostalgia?
 
Each piece of leather is cut by hand and meticulously fitted together using my unique leather marquetry technique. To emphasize sustainability, I source recycled black leather from damaged garments that would otherwise have ended up in landfill. Only the finest sections of the leather are chosen and carefully cleaned for repurposing.
 
Once all the leather pieces are assembled, I stitch them together using my trusty companion, 'Gerty', a 1960's Pfaff rolling-foot sewing machine. Finally, I add the finishing touches to bring the piece to life.
 
I would love to see your photos & hear your thoughts.
