The Journal Is Open
Come behind the jewellery
Every finished earring has a beginning.
Sometimes it’s a colour.
Sometimes a gemstone.
Sometimes an idea that arrives at exactly the wrong time — while cooking, for example.
For Hie Craft, the Journal exists to share those moments.
What you’ll find here
The original Journal notes describe the space as a place for behind-the-scenes moments, creative inspiration and craft-fair information.
That means the Journal isn’t only about finished products.
It’s about the world around them.
The materials
Gemstones.
Glass.
Colour.
Texture.
The little details that catch the maker’s eye.
The making
Behind-the-scenes moments.
New designs.
Creative experiments.
The stories behind how pieces come together.
The craft fairs
The Journal notes explain that new designs can sometimes appear at craft fairs before they reach the website, making in-person events an opportunity to discover something new.
Meet the maker
The Journal is also an invitation to know the person behind the earrings.
Thabs works from home and often creates while listening to music. She enjoys baking, cooking and reading, and says some design ideas have come to her while cooking.
That is the kind of detail you can’t see from a product photograph.
And that’s exactly why it belongs here.
Stay curious
