Betty Jo Designs

Regularly causing complete strangers to stop and admire their unique and bold beauty, Betty Jo Designs are as ethical as jewellery gets, more eye-catching than cleavage in winter and guaranteed to give you more warm and fuzzies than a rainy Sunday spent in front of the fire doing crosswords and eating cupcakes. Don’t think that’s possible? Download the Lino Forrest PDF Catalogue or the all new Lino Cottage PDF Catalogue.

Liz has been designing and manufacturing jewellery for many years and has always had an interest in found and recycled materials. The “Betty Jo” range utilizes retro lino and laminex, doilies, and vintage buttons and buckles, many coming from her grandma’s old button box.

The common threads that run through Liz’s pieces are the memories that each medium evokes. All the materials have had another practical or decorative function and many have a story attached. No two pieces of jewellery are exactly the same, as the materials dictate the final product. The fact that each piece Liz creates is unique, with many of the creatures having a personality of their own, has contributed to the success of the “Betty Jo” range.
