Ah, what a day!

17 Dec in Brush Cottage | Comments (0)

I’m not having a very good morning! What I really feel like doing is stamping my foot in frustration, however that doesn’t really work for someone over a certain (say 10!) age.

My trusty, well used, coffee pot has come out for the second time today. I LOVE coffee – but too much is bad for me, I get all trembly and that’s not a good way to work – but hey? What’s a girl to do?

And then really – a mince pie? of course! It has been a bad morning and I do need a little pick me up!

Is chocolate going too far do you think?

Pearl Earrings

This pair of earrings has been very popular, especially with the colder weather closing in and the warm sumptuous colours coming out in our woolies – delicious cranberry coloured pearls hovering over a bronze coin pearl.

Teardrop Crystal

This must be one of my favorite Swarovski crystal shapes – a baroque teardrop, which I have used for this Bridal Necklace. I can’t think of a more beautiful shape to add sparkle to a Christmas tree or adorn a festive window.

Stick pearl Bracelet

I made this stick pearl cuff bracelet to match this necklace. It should fit really snugly on the wrist and this one fastened with a silver toggle clasp, but it could equally be made on stretchy elastic. I LOVE these pearls!

Labradorite necklace

05 Nov in Jewellery | Comments (0)

I have made this necklace using a very unusual silver chain – it has oval links with a flattened link in between and then I have wire wrapped some wonderful faceted oval labradorite into the silver. It’s a really substantial piece and perfect for winter, the silver grey of the labradorite is flecked through with fire colours making it a very interesting stone.

Flowers for Westgate Dental Surgery

My wee girl, who has just turned 10, is having to have some orthodontic treatment done. Today she needed to have 2 baby teeth extracted. Fortunately I have a very good friend who is a dentist in Winchester and that does make it easier, but it’s still not much fun for a little girl (or a mum…..)

Michael, thank you so much for getting it done as painlessly as possible.

Stick Pearl Bridal Necklace

21 Oct in Brides, Jewellery | Comments (2)

This necklace was made for Theresa, whose wedding was over the weekend. We decided on a Stick Pearl Necklace as the dress had a low neckline and needed a bold necklace. The Pearls were a perfect colour – iridescent white with pink tinges.

I love this as an option for wedding jewellery as it is definitely something you could use again afterwards – perfect with jeans and a white shirt!

Christmas baubles

Another of my range of swarovski crystal Christmas baubles, this one is a beautiful faceted circle – 20mm in diameter and matched with sterling silver – perfect for adorning your Christmas tree! Contact me at jenni@twinkleberry.co.uk for details

Mother of Pearl Bracelet

I made this bracelet with a strand of Mother of Pearl I bought recently – different colours to the one I used for the green necklace, but gorgeous none the less. This strand is a combination of white, cream, champagne, grey and gold – perfect for Bridal jewellery!

I’ve used one of my favorite Rose gold Toggle clasps to finish it off.

Swarovski Crystal Christmas Decorations

15 Oct in Christmas Decorations | Comments (0)

Lovely Linda got me thinking about xmas a couple of weeks ago. It’s a frightening thought that we are heading for the countdown to one of my favorite times of the year – where has this year gone??

I love the early evenings, log fires, mulled wine and mince pies (this year I am going to make my own!) and the Winchester christmas lights – which are beautiful. Mostly I love getting our christmas tree and decorating it, Dave and I have our annual argument about how big the tree should be – I want the biggest one I can fit into the house.

I’ve made a range of Swarovski crystal decorations to hang on a tree or in a window, I don’t know if we will manage to get them onto the site, so contact me at jenni@twinkleberry.co.uk for info.

This one is a very large star – 28mm and there is a larger one available too – 40mm. They can be strung on the ribbon colour of your choice.
