Earring Making

I had a bit of an earring making session last night!

With a craft fair coming up in a couple of weeks, I suddenly realised that my stock of earrings was phenomenally low (erm... about 4 pairs!). I had ordered some new sterling silver hooks last week and set about turning them into earrings.

I love dangly earrings, and made lots of earrings with small shell beads hanging from them. I also made some angel earrings (a bit like the angel keyrings in my shop) and some more turtle earrings which are just sooooo cute!

All in all a very good evening's work I think!

Folksy Favourites!

I haven't posted about my new favourites on Folksy this week, and I feel this needs correcting as I've seen some absolute gems.

The first one is a wedding item from Dottie Designs. I stumbled across a mention of this wedding guest book in the forums and I absolutely love it! I haven't got round to sorting out that sort of detail for my wedding yet but when I do I may well be paying Dottie Designs a call...

My second item is from Buttercup Boutique, a gorgeous little shop selling all cute things fabric. My current favourite item is this adorable brooch, I can see it looking perfect on a jumper or a handbag.
My third and final item for this week is a pair of earrings from Cinnamon Jewellery. This shop is full of gorgeous metal and bead jewellery, and I love the curly shape of these earrings.

So that's this week! I'll be trawling Folksy again next week for some more handmade gorgeousness.
