Shiny Happy People Pendants

Posted: November 2026

Hello
I hope you are keeping well.

November is here, the evenings are getting cosier, and Christmas is beginning to appear on the horizon! I’m taking Paula Wilkinson Jewellery to a few events this month. Maybe I’ll see you at one of them, as they’re certainly great places to find unusual gifts for our loved ones.

As always I’ve been working away the hours at my workbench. It never feels like work though, especially when I’m having some fun coming up with new quirky designs. I hope my new People pendants will make you smile too!

People Pendants

There’s nothing like an exhibition with a theme to inspire new jewellery designs. I’m delighted the Create For Collab team in Bristol are hosting an exhibition in November and I’m very lucky to be able to get involved. Once again I’m volunteering to help with setting up the exhibition, and I’m also very pleased to be able to exhibit with them too. The theme for this year’s exhibition is People & Community. Dates and times can be found below. 

I always enjoy the challenge of coming up with new designs, and sometimes, you just have to let your imagination run wild! I’ve been having fun in the studio, creating a collection of quirky silver People pendants.

Meet my new little silver characters. They each have their own personality, and a few of them might even get you humming a tune…

People Are People

Inspired by that familiar road sign warning us to watch out for pedestrians, this little silver family has stepped straight off the sign and into the world of jewellery! Featuring two adults and a child, all holding hands, it’s a sweet reminder that, at the end of the day, people are people!


We Are Family

All together now! This little silver family features a parent and two children, all holding hands. A lovely little celebration of family, togetherness and the people who mean the most to us. Cue Sister Sledge! ​


Shiny Happy People

You know the song, and now you can wear the sentiment! Three shiny silver people are dancing their way through this joyful little pendant. Guaranteed to bring a smile, even if you can't help singing the REM classic when you see it. Go on, admit it… you're humming it already!


Saturday Night Fever People

And finally, it's time to dust off those dancing shoes! These shiny silver people are striking their best disco poses, inspired by none other than John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever. All they need is a glitter ball and a dance floor!


So, there you have it! Four little pendants with big personalities! Whether you're celebrating family, spreading a little happiness or simply love jewellery with a quirky twist, there are little silver people waiting to dance their way into your heart.

Which one is your favourite? I'd love to know!

These will be in the exhibition 18 – 22 November. After that I’ll pop them on the website.
