Welcome to my Etsy shop. Just to make you aware I have recently had a baby and we are in the middle of moving house. I am still taking orders but I have increased my shipping time to 1 - 2 weeks. Orders may be sent sooner, but are likely to be made and sent within 2 weeks.

Due to the new GSPR regulations, I am restricting my shipping to UK only, whilst I figure out what the implications mean for my small business.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hand-crafted jewellery for every occasion.

Since I was a little girl, I've been obsessed with making jewellery. On family holidays, all my pocket money would disappear in bead shops and, as a budding curator (I now work in a museum), I would ‘curate’ my bead collection and create jewellery for family and friends. One of the earliest memories I have of jewellery-making is receiving a beading loom and choker-making kit from my Aunt Kate who lives in America.

In 2009, my mam and a close friend encouraged me to join them and sell my jewellery at Christmas craft fairs. The intention initially was to save enough money to travel around the world before getting a “real job”.

For four years, my friend and I sold jewellery and accessories as Bon Designs across the Northeast of England. In 2013, I decided to go it alone and established Crafty Rachael. Originally, I planned to sell a wide variety of home crafts, as I also enjoy sewing and knitting, but I decided to focus on my main passion of jewellery making.

My ethos is to create timeless pieces that can be worn for special and casual occasions alike. I take a lot of pride in the jewellery I produce and strive to ensure my customers are outfitted with earrings, necklaces and bracelets that won’t rust or turn their ears green.
