Latest order and commission

A lovely lady from America contacted me on Etsy asking if I could make one of my silver spiral necklaces for her and a pair of earrings that she wanted to go with it.

She knew exactly what the earrings should look like and this is them. I hope she likes them.

They are being sent out tomorrow for her.

Exciting News

I applied for the BCTF a couple of weeks ago thinking that I would never get in but I did.
It is a trade event for British designers so I feel very privileged to have got in.

I have been checking the site ever since I found out I had been accepted to see if my name was there and today it was - I'm so excited but really nervous as well.

I also signed up for their online magazine. This is my page.

If anyone has any hints and tips for my first trade event I would love to hear them.

Now to get on with making and designing my stand.

Birds of a Feather - Folksy Friday

Todays Folksy Friday follows a bird theme. I get woken up every morning by birds singing in the tree outside my bedroom window. I have never seen theses birds so this is what I imagine them to look like!

Who lives in a house like this?!

After cleaning my pet out last night I realised I had put a little too much paper in for her! The only time ive seen her today is when ive come with ginger nut biscuits!

Can you guess what it is? Her name is Monkey as she likes to climb.

She's a rat! She is absolutely lovely. She has a real personality and incredibly fond of food!

And this is her trying to get her ginger nut!

On the subject of monkeys would you take a min to fill out a quick survey created with Survey Monkey. You will automatically be entered into a draw to win a black agate pendant

Masculine Bracelet

This is a bracelet I made for a friend of mine.
It is made from large cubed Tigers Eye beads, small metallic looking Hematite cubes and round bone beads. It is secured with a sterling silver magnetic clasp - he turned out to be very picky when choosing the clasp!

I would love to hear your thoughts about this bracelet!

Got the blues - earrings

These are todays make.
They are sterling silver earrings with a faceted Iolite bead at the bottom and a cluster of tiny white freshwater pearls.

These are lovely earrings and can be dressed up or down.

I am also working on a range that isnt jewellery! It features beads but isnt made from them!

Comment with your ideas of what it is and if you are correct you will win the mystery item!

Pretty Hair Clip

Another busy day today, I have made this hair clip that would be perfect for a wedding.
It is made with freshwater pearls and Swaorvki Crystals in fuchsia, rose pink and crystal.

These can be customised to any colour scheme you want making it ideal for bridesmaids to tie in with their dresses and it is something you know they will wear over again.

Heart of Glass

I have a jewellery party coming up next week and have been asked if I can have a wide range of prices.

I dont really have any jewellery under £10 so thought these pendants would be perfect! They are made from glass, really chunky and hang from a beaded necklace.

Hope they go down well!

I would love to hear your thoughts.
