Last Drop Village next.........

Well, unfortunately, Smithills School was a little disappointing today. Not many people coming through the door even though Patricia went on the park (maybe for a quick swing) to give out leaflets and let people know that we were there.

At least I won a prize on the raffle this time - a piece of cheese - very nice it tastes aswell. Will be nice with some onion relish and dips mmmmmmmmmm.

Our next craft fair will be at the Last Drop Village (BCA events organise that one) so hopefully we'll have plenty of people visiting and especially as the village summer fair will be at the last drop in May.

Don't forget the website address:

Smithills School

It's Smithills School this Saturday....let's hope it's a busy day!

The weather is supposed to pick up a little at the weekend so maybe that will bring people out of their houses and into the craft fair!

My framed poems did really well last time so hoping for a good day.

I've written 5 different poems - Mum, Dad, Friend, Thank you, Especially for You. They are all decorated with embellishments and framed and are only £4.50. Check out my website for details. Buying is easy...... choose the poem and the colour of the embellishments etc and I will do the rest

Don't forget, you can email me through my website if you have anything specific in mind....

New Website

Gosh it seems ages since I blogged but I'm hoping I'm forgiven as I've been working on my new website


www.jewells-shop.com



Take a look and let me know what you think. I think it still needs a tweak or two but that will be an ongoing thing.

What has been happening in the world of craft fairs - well, this weather has been playing havoc with them. at least 2 or 3 regular ones have been cancelled so I've only attended a couple this year so far as well as the Wedding Fair.

I've been writing some poems, decorating and framing them....seem to be doing alright! Something a little different and you don't need an occasion to send one as they're only £4.50 + P&P - not bad eh?

The JewELLs Card is going well and I've made some new pendants/chains as you'll see on my website. These are changing all the time depending on what is in stock at the time

So, even though I've not been that busy with craft fairs, I've been busy with other things like orders for weddings and parties - busy busy!

My next craft fair is on Saturday 30 March (Easter Saturday) at Birtenshaw Methodist Church Hall. Come along if you're in the area

And don't forget, 'like' my website or email me to let me know what you think - be gentle, it's my first one lol!

Personalised Cards/Poems

Just a quickie folks.....As it's coming up to Valentine's Day and Mother's Day, don't forget, I can personalise your card for you. I've also got the poem for 'Mum' framed and decorated which are only £3.50. 

The poem.......

You're there when I need you
You're there to help out
You're there when I'm trying 
to work things out
You're there when I'm troubled
You're there when I'm sad
You're there when things
are looking so bad
You tell me you love me
You give me advice
For no reason you hug me
which is always so nice
Mum, I do love you
Mum, I do care
Especially knowing you'll always be there

I wrote this for my mum so it has meaning for me and she loved it!

be back soon

In Preparation for the Bridal Fair

I've been busy busy getting ready for the Celebration Village Bridal Fair at the end of February. Making JewELLs Cards and Gift Bags in readiness and I've also been writing verses, decorating and framing them. They look great if I say so myself!

I've also had some lovely pendants delivered recently and so have been busy putting together some lovely necklaces. The new ones consist of little dogs with diamantes (they look a little like scottie dogs), beautiful flower pendants in all colours, diamante diamond shapes, enamel leaves, pretty pink leaves etc. I also found a breast awareness pendant which is lovely!

I've been looking for some pendants I made along time ago which are glass heart shaped pendants with a flower inside - absolutely beautiful! I've just managed to find some again and they look great in their own little box. Not bad value - pendant and silver plated 18" chain in a lovely box all for the grand sum of £4.50.

I'm also just starting to make some place names for a wedding that's going to be in Greece - Crete no less.

Will update again and get some more pictures for you

Season's Greetings and Good News!!!!!!

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and looking forward to a great New Year. I've got some great news......

I was contacted by Celebration Village in Manchester when they saw my JewELLs Cards and Gift Bags. It is a one stop shop for weddings and events with all the services you need under one roof. Click on the logo so you can see for yourself. 


I'll have my own page on their website soon. From January, my JewELLs Cards and Gift Bags will be a part of the service offered by Celebration Village.

My flyer (attached a piccy for you) will be in the pack that everyone coming through the door will see.....sooooooo excited as I'm also exhibiting at the Bridal Fayre at the end of February. 

I've had some pictures professionally taken for the flyer so you can at last, see what they look like








The pictures below are of some of the JewELLs Cards I've done mainly on commission. The poems I put into the cards will be done slightly different from next year as I want to make them more of a keepsake for the recipient.

Keep checking to see what they look like.....






Don't forget, JewELLs Cards are only £5 each and Gift Bags from £2 each. The jewellery is also sold separately at around £4.50 boxed.

Anyways that's my big news....will update again shortly as I'll have alot to tell you once things get going
