This month’s Artist of the Month, Helena Nelson-Reed also makes the most beautiful jewellery. Using miniature prints of her own artwork as the focus, Helena adds Czech crystals, precious stones, vintage and other unusual findings to create stunning one-off necklaces. On the reverse of the print is a collage of blessings, verse or incantations. They are intended to be worn, but also hung on altars, from statues, or anywhere else around your home or work.
