I modeled the design from those little concertina paper straw toppers after getting one in my fruity cocktail and challenging myself on how I would recreate the honeycomb pattern. It took a couple of tries in my 3D modeling program to get the sequence of steps right, but I loved the results. So far I have made a pineapple and apple versions, and can make them into earrings, necklace pendants and brooches. Perfect to pair with a summer dress while sipping a mojito.

New range of 3D printed jewellery
I had taken a bit of a break from the computer and had started to get my hands dirty again while forging silver and brass jewellery by hand, but the last design I drew up finally arrived from the 3D printer and they look amazing!
