A Few Of My Faves

We're officially on Facebook, hurray! The next step is to get the website all up and running properly. One step at a time.. ;)

If I had the money, I'd buy this little outfit.

Uttam Grey Pretty Floral Dress - £35.00

From Dorothy Perkins

Brogue Ankle Boots - £68.00

From Topshop

Also, I found this lovely site, hannahzakari.co.uk. It sells handmade goods, including jewellery, accessories and stationery. Alot of the pieces are all unique in their own way, and there's a modern touch along with some vintage-esque pieces. They supply different crafter's pieces, so there's a wide range of variety too :)

I <3 these stud earrings from there.

On a personal note, It's been a weird 24 hours for me and the boy. Our phone line died for no apparent reason, then the tail light on our car went out, so I went on a wild goose chase this morning trying to find a bulb that someone would fit, in an area I'm still learning. How fun :P I did manage to find somewhere, and the guy fit it, so it's all sorted. And I have this giant pile of ironing to do this afternoon...

Has anyone come across any gorgeous pendant clock necklaces lately? I've been looking out for a few more to add to my collection :D

Fredflare & Pretty Jewellery

I'm listening to fredflare's boombox (awesome little tool for listening to music) and browsing their pretties. I found this nailpolish and got all excited :D

Happy Birthday Nail Polish - $18

Shiney :D

I used to heart fredflare just for browsing, and then I found out that they didn't ship internationally :( but now, they do :D yays.

They've got the quirkiest jewellery pieces, here are some of my faves.

Hot Shot! Camera Ring - $10

This is so cute, I barely own any rings like this though, I worry about spiking people with them :D

Ladybird Watch Locket Necklace - $22

I love watch pendants lately, I bought a lovely one from River Island a little while ago. I love the detailing on this one though.

Black & Gold Bow Earrings - $4.99

These beauties are sold out, they're verrrry cute :P

Sadly I haven't been much of a busy jewellery-making bee, and I haven't been blogging either :O

To be honest, life is just flying by.

I'm due to hear from Milkwood Gallery at some point about the pieces I've sent them, I think they're due to send a sale or return contract to me before they get displayed. It'll be pretty exciting :) they generally seemed happy with my pieces, yay.

My next focus is getting the Folksy shop a bit fuller (haha) and finishing up the website.

This weekend my Dad is coming up to stay, I'm hoping to take him out for lunch somewhere nice tomorrow, and there's a big family meal planned on sunday evening. Should be goooood.. :)

Long Time No Post

Time flew, eek! Sorry for the lack of posts, I've been juggling a load of things lately.

Anyway, here are some new pieces :D

Mauve Elegance flower filigree drop earrings

Pretty mauve coloured clay roses mounted onto an antiqued filigree base, finished with AB Czech glass hanging beads and glass pearls.

£4.50

Hearts & Hummingbirds charm earrings

Antiqued bronze hummingbird charms, complete with Swarovski AB hearts.

£3.50

Sweet Trinkets eclectic long necklace
Antiqued bronze long necklace dotted with pretty beads and key charms.
£9.50

The long necklace was the first one I've ever made, I wanted something scattered and random, but sweet and girly.

The items shown in my last post have been sent to Milkwood, I'm just waiting for a sale or return contract to come through now. It's all so exciting!

If you're interested in any of the items above, please feel free to send me an email at sparklerosedesigns@live.co.uk

They'll be available from my Folksy store soon :D

Love,
