My
name is Manda and I'm the designer behind Silver Storm. I'm based in
Dorset which is for me one of the most beautiful of the English
counties.
I
grew up surrounded by art and craft, as a child I would spend hours
rummaging through my Grandmother's bead and button box stringing simple
necklaces and bracelets, later making earrings to sell at school and
eventually in 2000 I stumbled across an amazingly inspirational little bead shop (which I now manage) so I dusted off my pliers and here I am having the time
of my life!
The support I have received in this venture is truly
amazing, my husband and two wonderful sons who put up with the ironing
pile, my sister and my parents, without whom this last year could have
been very different. It is from my beautiful and talented mother that I have inherited my
creative spirit.
I love colour, I love jewellery and I love to
make jewellery, each piece unique, beautiful and fun to wear. Mostly I
like to use sterling or fine silver but you will also find some designs
using silver plated wire and findings, a little of something for every
pocket or purse. Other materials used in my designs are glass beads
from the Czech Republic and India, lampwork beads by some of the most
outstanding glass artists in this country, semi precious stones and
pearls.
I am so pleased and proud to be able to offer this exclusive range of unique, handcrafted, designer jewellery.
