While at Finders Keepers in Sydney during December Amanda Fuller came across my work and asked to feature me in her Monday’s Spotlight section of her blog. Thanks Amanda!

Download the Life Instyle Invite (Trade Only)

I will be having my first display at a Trade Fair in a week! I’m very excited and VERY nervous, however lots of lovely people have been giving me wonderful information and tips. I will be exhibiting my PaperCuts range and hoping that many a retail outlet will pick up the designs for sale in their shops .

With only a week to go and so far all effort going to my exhibition which opened Wednesday night, there is plenty of work to do! Many a form and display! Oh jewellery, how shall I display you!?

Here is my little statement that features in the First Instyle section on the website…

Sarah Rothe
Sarah Rothe uses titanium to create wonderfully light-weight, delicate, yet amazingly strong jewellery. Utilising the colouring abilities of titanium allows Sarah to create a vibrant range of shimmering hues within her jewels. Designs of traditional Chinese paper-cuts, inspired by her travels and simple, strong forms make up Sarah’s beautiful range.

I’ll post images when I get back! x

Thanks for coming…

The past weekend I travelled to Sydney for Finders Keepers at CarrigeWorks. It was a wonderful weekend with lots of beautiful people, art and design. Great thanks to Cath Fogarty and the girls of The Silver Room for helping me look after my stall when I need to step away from my stall for a moment.

Fellow Adelaidians Katrina Webber from Kitty Came Home and the girls from Umbrella Prints did a wonderful job and their stalls looked wonderful! Well done girls.

I hope the winners of the Indie Avalnche of Prizes were a happy bunch! Winning a hamper of awesome designer goods from 24 artists who donated something special! Proceeds going to Oxfam! Special hooray for the lucky one who got to take home one of my Golden Fan Pendants!!
