Overview of the Collection
Step into vintage artistry with the Transcendent Swirls Collection from Lollygag Jewellery — where heritage design meets modern colour expression.
Each piece in this collection is handcrafted in Sheffield from authentic 1970s wallpaper, carefully preserved within polymer clay to showcase its pastel swirls and retro textures. What was once interior décor now becomes wearable art — joyful, nostalgic, and truly one of a kind.
Inspired by the dopamine dressing trend, this feel-good collection celebrates creative reuse, sustainability, and individuality. The soft tones of pink, blue, and ivory evoke calm, optimism, and artistic freedom, while the swirling marbled designs capture the effortless movement of mid-century printmaking. Though partly inspired by the palette of the Transgender Pride Flag, the heart of the collection lies in transforming reclaimed materials into contemporary expressions of joy and creativity.
Each pair is lightweight, hypoallergenic, and designed for comfort, movement, and timeless character — connecting the past and present through colour, craftsmanship, and joyful self-expression.

My Story
A few years ago, my life hit an unexpected pause. Long Covid left me exhausted, foggy, and frustrated. On top of that, living with ADHD and generalised anxiety disorder meant my mind never truly rested, even when my body had to. I’d been taught that productivity defined my worth — but my health forced me to slow down.
At first, I felt guilty for resting. But in the quiet, I started making again. Playing with clay, colours, and textures became my therapy. Each earring, fidget, or tiny gift reminded me that creativity could be both gentle and powerful. I realised that “wasting time” wasn’t wasting at all — it was healing.
That was the beginning of Lollygag — a space built from my lived experience as a disabled creator, shaped by rest, joy, and authenticity. I design everything slowly, with intention and flexibility, because real life doesn’t fit into neat schedules. Chronic illness, neurodivergence, and fluctuating energy are part of my process — not obstacles to it.
As my work evolved, two clear strands emerged.
Lollygag Jewellery celebrates the dopamine dressing movement — a joyful, fashion-led celebration of colour and self-expression. Each bold, playful design is made to spark joy, confidence, and individuality, especially for anyone who’s ever felt invisible or “too much.”
Lollygag Gifts focuses on wellbeing through creativity — soothing fidgets, Moments of Joy Kits, and small sensory tools designed to bring calm and comfort to disabled and neurodivergent people.
Everything is handmade by me, with accessibility, compassion, and creativity at the heart of what I do. Lollygag is proof that creativity can thrive in all kinds of bodies and brains — and that slowing down doesn’t mean giving up; it means finding a new rhythm.
Why Lollygag?
At Lollygag, I believe jewellery should be joyful, playful, and deeply personal. My designs are inspired by the dopamine dressing trend — where colour and creativity come together to reflect mood, confidence, and personality. Handmade slowly and sustainably in Sheffield from polymer clay and glass beads, each piece is one of a kind — a little wearable burst of happiness that celebrates individuality and self-expression.
The name Lollygag carries its own quiet rebellion. To lollygag means to slow down, to drift, to “waste” a little time — but I see it as reclaiming time. It’s a reminder that rest, creativity, and daydreaming aren’t indulgences; they’re essential. Every earring, necklace, or bracelet I create is a small nudge to pause, play, and find joy in the present.
