Networking Event at the Award Winning Fusion in Stoulton

  • Posted on June 14, 2009 at 4:32 pm

Hi Everyone

Since my last blog I have been ill in bed. These nasty viruses that the kids give us. I have had flu like symptons so have not been anywhere near the workshop.

Well I am hoping to be on the mend now as next Tuesday 16 June there is going to be a fantastic opportunity to meet fellowlike business people at a networking event at Fusion.

Worcester Pages are holding the event at Fusion. They should be really pleased with the venue they are holding it at as Fiorinda and Felice have just won two fantastic awards from Visit Worcester. The first award being the best Eat and Drink Worcestershire category and another award for their Outstanding Contribution.

Well done Fiorinda and Felice you definately deserve it as your food is sublime and the warm welcome you always get is outstanding too.

Well I am off now to see the lovely weather we have got outside. I have not seen much of it due to this pesky virus!!!

Summer Holidays Here We Come!

  • Posted on June 11, 2009 at 10:13 am

Hi Everyone

Well I have had a really busy week again.

I have made a necklace to die for!!! It is perfect for your holidays. Go and have a look at www.oneofakind.org.uk and look up Swarvoski Shell Pendant with fresh water pearls under the Swarovski Necklace Set section.

I posted this blog earlier and I have had a problem with putting the picture on my blog and my tech guy is away at the moment so you will have to visit the website – sorry……………………

Bascially it is a fantastic Swarovski crystal shell pendant which has been surrounded by fresh water pearls and more Swarovski crystal. The chain used is made up of 49 strands of sterling silver which have been woven together and coated in nylon to give suppleness and strength which has then been finished off with sterling silver findings. It is really worth your while going to have a look at this necklace.

I adore this necklace and you are all luckly I have not decided to keep it for myself!

Earlier on this week I visited Fusion – they keep on selling loads of One of a Kind jewellery – Well done Abi!!!

I also visited Emerald Grove in Malvern. It is just a delight to go into this shop as it is such an Alladin’s cave full of handmade crafts and local arts. The pictures are a real treat to look at in this shop and are reasonably priced as well. If you are visiting Malvern make sure this is a shop to visit as you will not be dissappointed.

Well off now to paint a canvas – yes you read right. I also do art and have been asked to do a huge canvas by my friend Ailsa. Hope she likes it when I have finished it.

New Competition to win a Swarovski Crystal Heart Necklace

  • Posted on June 8, 2009 at 2:19 pm

Hi Everyone

Well I will keep it simple. Here is the new necklace for my competition.

Swarovski crystal heart necklace

For all those romantic people out there this is a very special necklace. The heart is a real Swarovski crystal pendant which has been AB coated. This has been enhanced with additional Swarovski crystal beads which have been AB coated suspended on sterling silver wire measuring 16 inches. As I am a perfectionist I have used the best sterling silver wire available which is sterling silver 49 Beadalon wire for its strength and suppleness. The AB coating gives off glorious hues of amber, pink and blue. With the sterling silver heart extender it measures 18 inches. All the findings are sterling silver.

Good luck in winning this stunning piece of jewellery!!!!

Hi Everyone

Again it has been a really busy week. Fusion at Stoulton are selling my jewellery like hotcakes at the moment (excuse the hotcakes pun – their food is fantastic) and a big thank you to Fi and Abbi for selling it for me.

On Thursday this week I have got a golfing event at the Upper Sapey Golf Club. The event is being held in aid of Cancer so hopefuly alot of funds will be raised for them.

I have just received a consignment of faceted turquoise, rose quartz and amethyst and the quality of the stones is to die for. I will be busy later on designing necklaces with them to take to the show. I will also put some pictures on my blog later on as well for you to see.

I have also added new surfer necklaces to my on line shop and if you are interested please go and have a look under necklaces – semi-precious stones. They are just the necklace to wear with the Summer now well and truly here.

I have also been busy designing dragonfly pendants in my long range of necklaces. Go and have a browse I am sure there is something I can tempt you with.

Well off now to make more jewellery.
