My approach is very much to challenge myself and push the boundaries of what I can achieve. I believe that nothing is impossible and tackle difficult tasks as though they are a puzzle to be solved. Overall I am happy with all of my design principles and having made the pieces for the project, I learned a lot about what did and didn't work. There are changes I would make in some areas to make them both easier to create, more appealing visually, and more commercially viable, but these are minor tweaks. My favourite piece by far is my 'scent' ring - I love the shape, the overall effect and of course, how it smells! It achieves everything that I had in mind when I designed it.
We had our exhibition a couple of weeks ago which was a great event, and the best part is that following the exhibition, I was approached by my tutor asking if I would be willing to sell the earrings as someone wanted them. I had to check behind me that she was in fact talking to me, and when it sunk in, I was so happy that someone liked them enough to buy them.
Our last day in the studio was on Thursday. I can't believe just how quickly the year went by, and I loved every minute of it. The end of this phase of my life means that I am now free to dedicate my energies to the business which has been on a back burner the last couple of months. So for this week I will be planning for the future and redirecting my energy toward Enchanted Nymph.
