A WIRE work artist from Shepton Mallet is really making a name for herself and has been featured in Vogue magazine, Country Living magazine and on national TV.

- NANCY CONNOLLY

Holly Berkley (pictured inset) makes beautiful rings, necklaces and bracelets from wire and her designs are attracting a lot of attention.

Holly has just published her first book about how to make wire jewellery from scratch, and it is proving a big hit among novices especially in the run up to Christmas.

She is passionate about teaching her craft and will be giving tutorials at the Craft4Crafters event at the Bath & West showground from Wednesday, November 26 to Saturday, November 29.
