Wednesday 7 December 2011

and I got the window decorated in Skipton, great copper beech branches, sprayed randomly with gold, gold and black baubles and some leaves around the bottom .... all looks very tasteful.

I did the Storey Vintage Christmas Fair on Saturday which was great.  I had some good sales including my pepper pot pendant that sold to the first person who saw it.

I also sold quite a few of the old silver charms with and without a chain.  So if I can expand my vintage range I might try a few more vintage fairs next year.

I am just working on turning some old spoons and forks in to pendants, not the ones you usually see, I am trying to do something different.  

I have a great commission at the moment.  I am making a contemporary silver ring for a customer and using 2 pearls from her old gold ring and setting them in to her new ring.  Before Christmas!  And I am making a hashtag from perspex.

Right, back to work ..........

1 December 2011

Had to post a short blog today as it's the 1st of the month.

I have been busy sorting stuff out and now I should be working on jewellery as I left my handtorch in the shop yesterday and I have just got it back.  I am working but just taking a break to post this.
This is a new pendant, based on my Fickle range and I have added gold leaf to it.  It looks great on but I am not too sure about the gold leaf and its sustainability.  You can buy it off my website The Jewellery Room.

I will just have to keep wearing this piece to test it out.
I am off to the shop again tomorrow in Skipton and I am going to decorate the windows for Christmas.  My boss is a Muslim so we are definitely not going over the top, we are going to be subtle so I hope likes it.
