Emma Hardy Designs

My love of jewellery started at the age of six, when I first had my ears pierced. By the time I reached senior school my class mates used to joke that they never saw me wearing the same pair of earrings twice. Although I have always been involved with various crafts from knitting, crochet etc it wasn't until I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2003 that I found myself being taken back to my roots and having to re-discover myself. It was at this stage that I stumbled upon a Jewellery & Silversmithing course at the local college.

It is now years later and I have never looked back. I live in Poole, Dorset with my husband and our ‘fur' family, consisting of Mia our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and 3 kitties. I am always on the look out for new trends and love attending courses to increase my skills but best of all I love sharing and learning from other fellow jewellery makers.
