I own a small business called Apiphany Jewellery, which I launched in 2020 during lockdown. It began as a hobby when I taught myself to make jewellery while stuck at home, but it quickly grew as people started buying my creations. Today, I offer a wide range of jewellery and accessories on my website and love selling at local markets during the summer and Christmas seasons. Over the years, I’ve supported local charities, such as Southern Area Hospice and PIPS Hope and Support, by designing special earrings to raise funds. I manage all aspects of my business, including buying, packaging orders, finances, and—my favorite part—marketing, especially on social media. In April this year, I launched Sip n Sparkle, a jewellery-making workshop that has been a great success. I’ve hosted several events so far, including hen parties, private gatherings, and collaborations with well-known drink brands. All of this happens alongside my full-time role as a Digital Marketing Executive at MJM Marine in Newry. People often ask how I manage it all, but when you truly love what you do, it doesn’t feel like work—that’s exactly how I feel about my business.
