March: Rachel, Simple Hearts Jewellery.

​

​

Hi, I’m Rachel, the person behind Simple Hearts Jewellery. I cannot really tell you when my love of jewellery started, it has just always been there for as long as I can remember.

I have dabbled in many things over the years including, sewing, needlework, teddy bear making, beading and leadlight but making silver jewellery was always there - there was just never the right time. Finally nearly four years ago, after searching for years for the right course, I found one in Melbourne that suited myself and my family. I came home after the course and bought my equipment.

My husband made a bench in the garage and Simple Hearts Jewellery was born. I’ve been happily making ever since.

I have been with Under the Oak for nearly 2 years now and have thoroughly enjoyed being part of this beautiful store with so many talented makers.
