Meet the maker behind 3 C Jewellery…

Hello I am Lucy and I have always loved crafting! I learnt all about beading, beadwork and making jewellery and items from beads whilst working in a craft shop. This fuelled my love of crafts and I decided to make and sell jewellery items as a hobby. It was during the first lockdown I found I had some extra time on my hands and I came across paper flowers. They looked amazing so I decided to have a go making them and quickly fell in love. My friends and family were amazed at how real they looked and started to ask me to make paper flowers for them.

After returning to work, paper flowers and beading returned to being my hobby but I was encouraged by so many people saying I should sell my handmade items that, finally, in January 2022 I found the confidence to make it happen!

My brother and I came up with a business name of 3 C Jewellery, which stands for Caundle, Chainmail and Craftwork. Its an unusual name but my family have lived within 3 villages that have Caundle in their names and I make chainmail and do craftwork, so the name just seemed to fit.

All of my items are handcrafted in Dorset and I make sure that every item I create is made with love, care and attention to detail to produce jewellery and paper flowers that will bring a smile to whoever receives them!
