About DesignsByApril

The Story Behind the Jewellery

DesignsByApril started as something I did in my spare time, purely for the love of making beautiful things. What began with beaded bracelets quickly evolved — I added chained bracelets to my repertoire, then moved into chained and beaded necklaces. Eventually, I discovered my passion for resin work, creating pendants, bookmarks, and keychains that let me explore darker, more fantastical designs.

Each step of this journey has been driven by my own creative vision and the joy of handcrafting pieces I genuinely wanted to wear and share.

Handmade in Adelaide

Every piece is designed and made by me in small batches right here in Adelaide, South Australia. I work with high-quality materials — stainless steel, sterling silver, gemstones, beads, and resin — to create jewellery and accessories that feel intentional and meaningful.

My work blends gothic and alternative aesthetics with modern design: delicate chains, symbolic elements, and statement pieces that feel both elegant and a little rebellious. Nothing is mass-produced, and each piece carries the authenticity of being truly handmade.

Who It's For

These pieces are for anyone who loves darker, alternative aesthetics and wants jewellery that feels personal and powerful. Whether you're drawn to witchy vibes, gothic elegance, or simply want something with more soul than what's out there, there's something here for you.
