Packaging

Think I've solved a problem with my pendant packaging. I've been trying to make all of my  jewellery designs fit into pillow boxes because they're pretty and they keep down the cost of postage. However, it sort of ruins the great unveiling for a customer when the chain has gotten tangled in the box and the pendant has twisted in transit. Up until now I have been using the standard square jewellery box with padding to avoid this issue.

This envelope is my tiny game changer. It keeps the chain secure but this poppy pendant can still peak out to greet it's new owner. It is now compact enough to fit safely in a pillow box for the post. 

I know it's just an envelope, but it makes me feel like a genius!

I made this

I worked out the best way of displaying my work on the go and it turned out well!! It's all about embroidery hoops from now on...


Also got out the trusty Cameo Silhouette for its case, I even gave it a magnetic bag clasp. Now I wish it was acceptable for clutch bags to be made from cardboard. 


Oh and I have been doing a bit of Etsy reshuffling. These are just a few pieces that will be listed soon.

Sorry guys it's been a while...

I am a bad person, for the last 7 months or so I have neglected E-Blogger for the likes of Instagram. As you may have noticed I don't give out much in terms of written content, so you can see why hash-tagging instead of stringing a sentence together appeals to me.

I've been up to quite a bit over the past few months, a lot of making and working and the odd bit of selling. I have a biggish project on the horizon which I will reveal once it's set in stone.

I also went to Sri Lanka, which was pretty gorgeous. There was beach and blue sky as expected, but oddly enough the pictures I took were mainly of  textures. In fact I have more images of tree bark than of anything of actual interest to a normal person. So that is what I will leave you with for the time being, my exciting collection of walls and floors. If you need me I will be hash-tagging my grammatically inept heart out elsewhere. Enjoy.
