Spicy Cat Designs Hand crafted designs inspired by Europe and made in Newfoundland. Spicy Cat Designs: it’s about being your own Spicy Cat! The Name? Stay Spicy!

I’m a proud Newfoundland girl with a distinctive affliction: a weakness for unique jewellery and an enormous case of wanderlust. I’ve been combining the two since 2008 when my “accidental business” Spicy Cat Designs was born out of the sparks of an epic trip to Italy where inspiration met design. The Story: I have always been enticed by craft and design, but it wasn’t until 2008 that I decided to

bring my travel influences together and funnel it into jewellery design. The result was a collection of unique earrings, necklaces, pendants, bracelets and rings, most using Murano glass -an astonishingly vibrant coloured glass with silver foil warped inside. Each piece is handmade, many using a single flowing strand of silver wire with a copper core, wrapped and entwined around that special silver foiled Italian glass. I want people to feel cool in my designs…like a cool cat, a hip cat! Being a lover of cats (and having lost a number of beads to swinging paws) and also loving spicy food - the name had to be cool, yet hot! Sooo….spicy spices….hip cats…distinctive designs….Spicy Cat Designs was born. The Designs: I find the unique and most wonderful ideas everywhere; from sculptures in Spain to the hardware store in Conception Bay South - I see forms and design a little bit of everywhere. It could be the bend in a light-fixture, the swirl of cream in a cup of coffee, or the texture of an old picture frame…inspiration is everywhere! The Other side: When I’m not twisting metal, catching a flight or planning my next adventure, I can be found working as a Communication and Social Media PR Maven. Most other times you’ll find me in the garden getting messy and making things grow – or maybe in the kitchen drinking too much coffee and adding hot peppers to something.

Happy Wednesday Spicy Cats! Just added this pendant to the Etsy site...but most importantly - stay shiny and of course - Stay Spicy!!

Hello Spicy Cats – it’s been so long time since I last posted, but it’s time to shake off the cobwebs and get spicy once again!

I hope you all fared as well as possible throughout the last couple of years – I know it’s been so hard for so many of us. Including for us – we lost Chief Executive Cat Abby back in August 2020 to lymphoma. But happily, we’ve since welcomed (and rescued) Executive Cat Zoie to the company – a classic Tuxedo – she’s ready to bring her Zoie style to Spicy Cat.

I’m also happy to share that I’ve FINALLY opened my Etsy store ( https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/SpicyCatDesigns?ref=shop_sugg) and am slowly but surely stocking up on styles – including all the photos here. Earrings will follow soon!

Thank you all for being supportive for so long and always being cool – I really appreciate it! And of course – as always – STAY Spicy!!!

Stay safe and stay spicy!

Hello Everyone!

Wild Things is temporarily closed due to Covid-19. We are still evaluating our re-opening timeline, but we will not be opening for Alert Level 3. We are using this opportunity to take on some much-needed cleaning and renovation projects in the shop, and we are working hard to ensure that when we do re-open, the health and safety of our guests takes top priority!

We are looking into exciting new ways to engage with you all, but in the meantime, we hope you are staying safe and well!

As they say, "Distance makes the heart grow fonder," and we cannot wait to be together again soon!

Hello Spicy Cats – my spicy-apologies that it’s been so long since I’ve posted.

Now that I’ve confirmed my seasonal placement at the St. John’s Farmer’s Market, I wanted to let you know that while I’m not stepping away from Spicy Cat Designs – this will be my last year attending and participating in craft fairs and farmer’s Markets.

The reason? With so many craft fairs and markets, and so many people making wonderful things (and especially jewelry), it has become too difficult for me to make a successful go of the craft fair/market circuit, all while I also work full time and tackle life’s other responsibilities.

While I step away from craft fair/market circuit, I am still looking for shops to carry my work (if you know any…by all means, please send me your suggestions). And of course you’ll still be able to find a small selection of my pieces at Wild Things on Water Street.

I will also be starting an Etsy site in the new-year – which will provide another avenue to find me.

Thank you all for being supportive Spicy Cats – hopefully I can see you at my last farmer’s market – and you can always get in touch with me here on Facebook, or via email – [email protected].

As always – Stay Spicy!

HELLO Spicy Cats!! I know it has been a while – but I’m back (Master’s Degree complete) and ready to spice it up! As I seek new stores to carry Spicy Cat Designs, I’m excited to announce that in the coming days (next week) the D***o Dory Grill Gift Shop will start carrying Spicy Cat Designs – stop by for a bite and a little shopping – Happy Summer and of course… Stay Spicy!

Hello Spicy Cats! My spicy apologies for being absent recently – as some of you may know, I’ve been working on a Master’s Degree for several years now and the culmination of all my work will come together this June when I finally finish my graduate work. After June I’ll be back in spicy style, looking at markets to attend and hopefully adding some new shops where Spicy Cat Designs can be found – until then, as always – Stay Spicy!!!
