paper and chain.

I was having a blog catch up last night and whilst over at Noir Nouvelle I read Lauren's post about paper and chain, a jewellery store run by Naomi and Ismay who make absolutely stunning bracelets, rings and necklaces.

For a while now I have been looking for a silver ring that I can wear all the time which is simple but pretty, and I think I may have found it! I instantly loved the Vega ring in silver (top photos) when I spotted it but I think it looks equally as good stacked up with a bronze ring of the same style.

I also really like the Hex Bar necklace from the Catena range (bottom photos). I haven't seen anything remotely similar in the shops and at £18.00 it is a steal.

My birthday is approaching so a couple of paper and chain pieces may make an appearance on my list!

Which pieces do you like?

Presents from the USA.

For a few months now Alexandra and I have been swapping parcels, where we have been sharing letters, sweets, beauty products and trinkets from our countries. It has been brilliant receiving boxes of goodies through the post and I thought I would share one of my recent boxes with you.

 

Not only did I get a big bag of Cinnamon Bun marshmallows (yum!) but I got a whole host of other sweets too (I loved the toffee especially!). Alexandra also sent a makeup bag stuffed full of things including a Sephora lipgloss which I have worn so many times already - it's the perfect nude lipgloss.

Thank you Alexandra! I look forward to many more letters and parcels in the future.

PEACE ROCK DISCOVERY

Received this comment on one of my pages about my "Peace Rocks."

My grandson found your peace rock at Sam Houston Jones State Park,very cool. We also travel in a MH and our plans are to place your rock at a park on one of our travels. We will add our names and date when we leave it. Hopefully they will get on your site and let you know what they plan on doing with it.

How cool is that?  I often wonder if anyone has found the rocks I've hidden.  Sometimes I think I hide them too well.  I remember placing that rock at Sam Houston and just placed a few leaves over it next to a tree.  Others I placed have been hidden more securely.  When I traveled back to Magnolia Beach in Texas I checked to see if my rock was still in place and it was.  Also, when I traveled back to Surfside Beach in Texas my rock was still there in plain sight - not covered with anything.  I think it will be found by the summer.  I hope they contact me.

New in!

First of all I wanted to say a big thank you to those of you who bought something from my shop this year. It has done better than I ever imagined and I'm so pleased that you like my jewellery. It will continue to grow in 2012 - I have lots of ideas of things to make but the hard bit is finding the time to make everything. Perhaps I should give up the day job in order to spend more time making things.. now there's an idea!

Last week I added some new charms - Hello Kitty, a star (slightly bigger than the tiny star I have stocked for a while) and an ever so tiny wing charm. I hope you like them. I personally think the Hello Kitty is adorable and would look great as a set with the cupcake and horseshoe on pink and lilac cotton. I may add some sets very soon, to make buying buy then one bracelet slightly cheaper for you.

Also if you guys have any suggestions for charms then please let me know below. I'm on the look out for some nice bronze and gold charms, but gold ones seem to be like... well, gold dust!

Once again, thanks to anyone who has bought something from me. To those of you who haven't, I hope to see you very soon!
