About Me

Hello, I’m Celia, the owner and creative designer of Billibob Designs. I live in Solihull with my three rescue cats, Bean, Ben and Bruno.

Two decades ago, I started to learn to ride horses, and so when I am not in my studio you will find me at my local riding school mucking out, tacking up and, helping on lessons and generally getting dirty and having fun with the friends I have made there.

I couldn’t imagine my life without my cats, horses and the family and friends in my life.

Being surrounded by beautiful countryside, horses, wild animals, and like-minded people inspire me, the memories they can make are reflected in my jewellery.

I am lucky enough to have several horsetail key rings of horses past and present that are very special to me. The products are beautifully crafted and obviously made with love. The presentation and personal service is second to none. Would highly recommend.

In a former life I worked in the corporate world of HR, but being with people and animals far removed from this world in the fresh air, as well as creating beautiful pieces of jewellery was my ‘happy place’.

Many years ago, I took a starter course in working with ‘silver clay’, an amazing product, that when fired turns into fine silver. I have never looked back, continuing my learning through formal courses gaining a certified diploma in the medium. I now combine this medium with more traditional ‘silversmithing’ techniques.

I am now privileged to be able to combine both my love of nature, family, friend, and pets, with the creation of fine and sterling silver jewellery though Billibob Designs as my ‘day job’. Memories made with family, friends, and animals in our lives is the passion that is found in my jewellery.

Integral to my love of nature is that my jewellery should not compromise the sustainability of nature. I aim to source all the products I use from ethically environmentally focussed companies without losing the luxury edge. 

I love the creative process of working with customers to help bring their memories alive, creating bespoke individual pieces of jewellery as well as ‘one-of-a-kind’ pieces inspired by nature. When you buy from Billibob Designs you are buying a unique piece of jewellery, handcrafted with love and passion.

If you want to be part of this process with me to bring your own personal memory to life, just get in touch. I’d love to hear from you.

There is no-one I would trust more than Billibob Design to craft a beautiful keepsake or memorable piece of jewellery. I have a number of pieces each one is precious to me. The love, care, and skill in each and every piece crafted is second to none. I would highly recommend.
