My story
So, I’m that girl who has sailed through life never knowing what it is she wants to be “when she grows up”.
I’ve always been creative, but I always saw that as a bit of a hobby. I went to University not knowing what to do, so thought I should just do something “business related”. I got my degree in Business Psychology & Marketing and not surprisingly, I have never used it….until now. Its amazing how many skills you draw upon to run your own business!
My creativity continued in the background as I became a full-time mum. But it wasn’t until I was in my thirties and I had an opportunity to try some courses when something changed. I tried creative courses like baking, sewing and interior design which were all enjoyable but it wasn’t until I came across jewellery making that I suddenly had that moment of clarity… I found myself sitting in a taxi, on my way to do one of my jewellery classes at the Jewellery Design & Management School (JDMIS) in Singapore (where I was living at the time). I felt excited to be spending my Saturday doing a six hour jewellery course! I remember thinking….this must be what it feels like to be learning something you love.
And love it, I do. And so, began Watermeadow Lane Jewellery.
I now tell my children when they grow up….to do something you love, because every little girl should dream to do what she loves….
“Love what you do and do what you love”
Ray Bradbury
P.S The name Watermeadow Lane comes from the street I grew up on in Dublin and holds many fond memories of where I began.
