Welcome to my blog, JewelleryMadeWithLove is my home run business creating one off pieces of jewellery. I use modern colours and a variety of materials (including silver plated findings) to produce the best products I can and the best prices possible for you. I wont do exact copies of previous pieces but I am happy to re-create similar pieces if there is something that you'd like but has already sold and please bear in mind that I am happy to take on custom pieces. You can check out my jewellery and accessories on my facebook pages.

Wet and miserable day

Well its another wet and very windy day here but nothing can dampen my mood.  Not only have I had some superb deliveries this week (with  more to follow hopefully) but I am also now officially on holiday until 28th March.  I will be away from next Monday until the following Wed/Thurs but I have successfully organised my friend Jenny to take over as page admin while I am away.  Now this will cause some geographical challenges as I live here in, not so sunny, Oban and she lives in , considerably more sunny, Guernsey but she WILL be able to help answer any queries............all seems organised so Lanzarote here we come!!

I have another new idea in the pipeline so hopefully by the end of March to the middle of April there will be some wire wrapped items and , if I can get my hands on some, there may also be some sea glass items.  I love making jewellery and although my skills are limited I enjoy trying new ideas out regularly.  Some work, some dont!!  I am also heading into what I call the quirky and kitsch aswell and will be producing more food/drink items for fun.  I'm hoping to extend my children's jewellery lines aswell inspired by my son and his little friend.

While I am here and have a bit of time I'd like to tell you a little bit more about me........ I am 30 years young and live with my 4 year old little monster.  He is bundles of fun but can be rather hard work.  I work part time for a local supermarket and the rest of the time is spent making jewellery and looking at new ideas.  I have always loed jewellery and believe that it can make or break an outfit. 

Well look out for my next blog as it will be the 200 liker competition - open to all x

Wow March already!!

Well here we are in March.  I'm sure the years go quicker as we get older.  This month should be an exciting one for me with, fingers crossed, the launch of my website.............now I am getting a little ahead of myself as its not even in the making yet, but will be very soon.  As my close friends will know technology isnt always my strong point but, hopefully, I'll get the hang of it and it will be another string to my business bow. 
This blog has been a bit of a slow start for me but I shall endevour to provide a weekly blog with whats coming up next design wise and might even give you all a bit of background about me (remember that folks it might become important for future comps!!)

New Ideas

Well now that the inital panic set up to run my FB competition is over I can concentrate on doing one or 2 updates a week.

I'm really pleased that my FB page seems to be a success and gathering a reasonable amount of fans/likers and more importantly some sales.

I tried my hand at memory wire pieces yesterday and was happy with the results so now I'm moving onto another new idea................lucite flower jewellery.  Need the order to arrive but then the fun will begin.
