Michelle is the creator of Not The Norm Jewellery, designing and handcrafting affordable, distinctive pieces using only the finest Austrian crystals, semi-precious stones, and pure silver beads. From        contemporary designs to classic and traditional styles, each piece is individually made with care and attention to detail.

Whether you are looking for wedding jewellery, a special gift, or something unique for yourself, Michelle offers a wide range of ready-made pieces as well as bespoke designs created just for you. She also specialises in innovative solutions for those with metal allergies, sight, or dexterity restrictions.

Alongside creating jewellery, Michelle shares her skills through jewellery-making classes,            demonstrations, and workshops for adults, children, schools, and community groups across the North East. Repairs, re-stringing, and jewellery-making kits are also available.
