The Magic of Creativity✨
Is turning an idea in the real of dreams, into an object of the physical world.
This gives me goosebumps. It’s is what I live for!
Julia Duff Jewellery is handmade, by me.
I have a small home studio with basic tools, but the main production happens @studio.patina
Where I am luck enough to spend some hours of my week working in Sandra’s beautiful workshop.
What I love about handmade jewellery is that the production method is traceable.
It’s slow fashion, with integrity! Each step is carefully crafted with love.
My design process starts with a dream, a thought, a spark.
Then comes a sketch to check the proportions and imagine it’s wearability & functionality.
Next, the materials get thrown in the mix. What shall I make it from? How thick should it be?
Some testing & experimenting usually takes place, with adjustment and tweaks made to the design when necessary.
The making part involves an array of tools and techniques.
Some elements only need to be assembled and welded,
Others need to be bent, soldered and polished.
3D cast elements need to be filed, sanded and tumbled.
The last step in the process in the Platinum plating, which add some protection to the Sterling Silver surface.
And then the dream has come true.
The object is complete. Ready to wear & shine in.

You don’t have to have it all figured out.
It doesn’t have to be perfect.
Some days, the only thing that matters is that you keep moving.
Keep trying.
Keep showing up.
Keep doing the dance.
Being present is not mental.
It’s physical.
Learn to be in your body - and you will be instantly transported to the present moment,
where worries of the future and badge of past dissolve. You realize that right here and how - you are ok.
It’s very simple - yet very easy to forgot.
💌So save this to remember :
Be in your body. Be here now.

Making is Medicine ❤️🩹
Creativity is a life force.
After experiencing this myself,
I know that recovering from and preventing burnout is mainly about re-igniting your creative fire -
Not with force or pressure,
but with joy & curiosity.
HOME.
A hard lesson I’m learning…
I’ve been moving around a lot lately - without a permanent home base.
As unsettling as it is - I’ve realised something beautiful…
Home is not a place.
Home is within your body.
Like a hermit crab, you carry your home with you wherever YOU are.
Care for your body.
Love your body
& you will always belong.
