I grew up in the Shetland Islands, North Scotland, surrounded by
handicrafts, art and nature, and in a family home full of
intriguing ornaments and nic-nacs. I have always found delight in
handling and looking at such objects and as I grew older I too
became a hoarder of bits and pieces. From a young age I enjoyed
making mini "creations" using all sorts of materials. And so, at
University it felt natural for me to study jewellery design and I
loved creating pieces which could be playful, tell a story, or give
an insight about the wearer. In my final year of study, and this
dissertation, I have explored various everyday objects and how the
use of materials and aesthetical qualities can ignite an emotional
response to the owner. Perhaps influenced by my own surroundings, I
hoped to create jewellery which can encourage ideas of comfort and
homeliness for the wearer. Therefore I have researched the
influence of physical touch and why certain objects, such as living
room furniture and children's toys, can provide reassurance and
soothing feelings for a person.
