My Story
When I was a toddler
My Mum sat me down at the dining room table to make necklaces from buttons and shirring elastic. I was born with no fingers on one hand and went through a very determined phase of trying to do everything one handed, Mum saw making necklaces as a way to get me to use both hands, and it worked!
As I grew up, buttons were swapped for beads and shirring elastic for jewellers cord. I was hooked!
2017
I’d been making silver jewellery for about 4 years, documenting what I was doing on a Facebook page. While on maternity leave, a colleague tagged me in a ‘post a piece of art you made every day for 7 days’ challenge. The piece I posted on day 7 sold… to someone I didn’t know… and that got me thinking!
Post maternity leave, I renewed my commitment to my craft, honing my skills and refining my style, alongside my day job. I enrolled in every weekend classes, joined online mentorship groups and began building a solid local following and customer base on social media.
in 2020..
After a series of unfortunate events, my priorities shifted and I craved a big career change that embraced my organisational skills, eye for detail and passion for creativity. After 14 years of teaching I said goodbye to the classroom to run Hannah Weston Jewellery full-time.
I'm a huge fan of strong coffee in a great mug, hydrangeas, and clean windows. I'm less fond of prawns, the colour yellow and when people use 'been' when they mean 'being'.
