Makey makey
I hope you’re having a lovely weekend. It’s been a funny old week here. The little ones have been poorly with fevers and coughs and we’ve been haring through the calpol. MissP1 burned up a couple of times so she was dunked in tepid baths. By yesterday though they were on the up thank goodness.
Despite the concerns about little pebbles, new designs were popping into my head now and again. I beavered away in the evenings - to help me to relax more than anything.
This is another tubelined and enamelled silver pendant. I spotted the design on my old pyjama bottoms and made a teeny version with jingly little freshwater pearls.
A couple of weeks ago I took a trip to Risby and Ely and had found a few little treasures so I made those into necklaces too.
A vintage mother of pearl pierced bird pendant combined with pearls and one of my silver flowers (now sold)…
… some vintage beads
..and some lovely old buttons. There is something special about finding a little item in an antique shop, bringing it home and making it into something new.
All these new things and a few others are in my shop. If you mosey on over don’t forget the blogreader’s 15% discount - (blog3).
Finally many thanks to Ann and Debbie for such a lovely day yesterday at the vintage and hand-made fair. I loved having a tiny shop at your place and it was great to meet so many bloggers.
EDIT SUNDAY EVE: My email server is down at the moment and will take at least two days to put right. Sorry!

Your jewellery is so beautiful - I love it! We have been pretty germy as well here, over the past few weeks - I feel we are in for a long snuffly winter!

So glad to hear the girls are on the mend and the fevers haven’t ended up in hospital trips. Love all your new makes.

Yes, I’m with Alice - I tried to respond to you today and it bounced me back.
The buttons (among all the other things) are just gorgeous.

Oooh, all too pretty and tempting, naughty Emma!
I’m sorry the little ones have been under the weather - I hadn’t read this before you rang so now I feel rotten for having loaded you down with my woes and not having asked about the tiny Ps! Hope they’re feeling far better now - and that you don’t catch whatever they had …
See you on Thursday - can hardly wait!

Hi,
I am aware that you are open to the idea of customising jewellery, I was wondering whether you would consider working with a stone that I already have. Basically I have an oval shaped yellow carnelian stone that I really like. I would like to make a pendant so that I can wear the stone. Would it be possible for me to send you the stone and ask you to create a pendant from it (possibly with a design of teh pendant, which is going to be quite simple to let the stone shine) and an idea of how much this would cost (the stone itself is not very big, about 1.5cm x 1cm oval shaped).
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
With regards,
K.
