New Start



Hello everyone, this is my new daily blog which helps me communicate with the outside world. To introduce myself, I am a UK designer maker who works on my own to create beautiful objects and jewellery. I like to work with a variety of materials including hand made felt, vintage lace, threads, silver, leather and gemstones. I am very inspired by environments and places, colours and textures. I studied at Glasgow School of Art, Scotland. My Degree Show was based on the traditions of taking Afternoon Tea. This led me to create unusual jewellery and objects for the home such as felt cakes and vintage boxes of felt chocolates. (www.suzanne-smith.co.uk).This has now developed into weddings also and I make little cakes and chocolates for wedding favours. (www.suzannesmithdesign.co.uk) I really love making things, collecting, storing and displaying items I have found at home and abroad. My favourite places are Paris, London and New York. I always find these cities to be full of inspiration. I intend to write a little each day to update what I am doing with my work and the progress that I have made.
