Lush Baubles: Handcrafted Elegance at Markets at The Quay

Kylie specialises in creating one-of-a-kind jewellery by working with a diverse array of materials.

On Saturday, 23rd November, Elizabeth Quay will come alive with the vibrant energy of the Markets at The Quay, and among the exceptional local businesses in attendance is Lush Baubles, a jewellery brand that redefines artistry, sustainability, and elegance. From 3 pm to 8 pm, you’ll have the chance to meet Kylie Marie, the creative force behind Lush Baubles, and explore her stunning collection of handcrafted, one-of-a-kind jewellery.

The Spark Behind Lush Baubles

Lush Baubles began as a small, creative endeavour, born from Kylie’s desire to explore her artistic side during a transformative phase of her life. Fifteen years ago, while navigating pregnancy and maternity leave, Kylie found herself drawn to the meditative and rewarding process of crafting jewellery.

What started as a part-time hobby quickly evolved into a full-time business as her passion for creating unique pieces grew stronger. With every design, Kylie found joy and fulfilment, which ultimately gave birth to Lush Baubles—a brand built on creativity, authenticity, and beauty.

Today, Lush Baubles is a well-known name within Perth’s market scene, celebrated for its exquisite craftsmanship and thoughtful approach to jewellery design.

The Art of Crafting Unique Jewellery

At Lush Baubles, every piece tells a story. Kylie specialises in creating one-of-a-kind jewellery by working with a diverse array of materials, including:

Ethically sourced semi-precious and precious gemstones
Recycled precious metals
Unique vintage and antique finds
Naturally passed beetle and butterfly wings

This careful selection of materials ensures that every piece is not only beautiful but also sustainable and meaningful. Kylie’s creative process involves transforming these elements into wearable art, combining contemporary designs with a timeless aesthetic. The result? Jewellery that feels personal, elegant, and completely unique.

A Standout Moment in the Lush Baubles Journey

Over the years, Kylie’s hard work and talent have earned her recognition both online and within Perth’s bustling market scene. One of her proudest achievements was being selected as the accessory provider for the 2016 Pierrot's Model Search fashion parade.

This milestone highlighted the brand’s ability to blend artistic vision with practical wearability, making Lush Baubles a trusted name in Perth’s jewellery industry.

Sustainability at the Heart of Lush Baubles

For Kylie, sustainability is more than a buzzword—it’s a commitment woven into every aspect of her work. From the materials she sources to the designs she creates, Kylie ensures her jewellery is environmentally friendly and ethically responsible.

Some of Lush Baubles’ sustainable practices include:

Ethically sourced gemstones and metals to ensure they are conflict-free.
Recycled precious metals, giving new life to materials that might otherwise go to waste.
Natural elements like beetle and butterfly wings that are collected only from creatures that have passed naturally.

By prioritising sustainability, Kylie not only crafts beautiful pieces but also makes a positive impact on the planet.

Thriving Through Challenges

Running a small business is never without its challenges, and Kylie has faced her fair share. The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 was a particularly tough time, with restrictions limiting market opportunities and impacting consumer spending.

Even today, economic pressures have led to more cautious spending habits among shoppers, requiring Kylie to adapt her business strategies. Despite these challenges, Kylie’s passion for jewellery-making and her dedication to her customers have kept Lush Baubles thriving.

Kylie’s vision for Lush Baubles continues to evolve. She hopes to expand her brand’s online presence and develop an international following, sharing her handcrafted creations with a global audience.

While the future holds exciting possibilities, Kylie remains focused on the present—creating beautiful jewellery, connecting with her customers, and making meaningful contributions to Perth’s creative community.
