Oof.  I've not blogged for a while again have I?  I'm hoping to be better at this blogging stuff, I like to have posts with less yap, more pretty pictures ;)  We're off to Stourport tomorrow, so hopefully will have some lovely pics to share, and I may or may not be joining in with a make-a-week challenge, so watch this space for tons more jewellery :D

I've been busy designing jewellery for my soon-to-be-launched jewellery brand Firelily.  I make everything by hand and design everything myself.  I even do the photography!  Being a one-man-band is sometimes exhausting but it's well worth it when you can sit back and say you've done it all on your own.  This is a necklace I strung with three kinds of gemstone (don't ask me which because I cannot for the life of me remember... oh ok, one's Carnelian I think and I know one's olive jade but I haven't the foggiest about the other.  It's written down somewhere.)

Love elephants!  I absolutely adore these figures, they have square bases that fit alongside each other - I've been eyeing up the cat ones for ages but my lovely friend got us these as a wedding gift.  Elephants, giraffes and owls - I'm a sucker for them all.

I've decided to start incorporating my jewellery blog into this one, so watch out for some updates with stuff I've made :)

Ooh, I guess I've not blogged for a while have I?  Well, I got married, and as of yesterday we've been married for three weeks.  That really is a long time not to blog.  I'd like to start blogging every day, would that get boring?  Anyway, here we are:


It was an amazing day, I really couldn't have asked for much more than that, it was so perfect.

Cath Kidson

I've been looking around for a while now for a nice changing bag, I like the look of the Pink Lining bags, but I absolutely love the Cath Kidson style.  I love vintage floral (am I so cliche?) and decided to take the plunge in Selfridges at the Bull Ring today!
