My Timepiece pendant in this months Vogue!

A couple of my designs have been in weekly magazines as they were worn by Fearne Cotton but my name was not mentioned.

The first magazine my name and design is featured in is Vogue!



My Timepiece Long Chain Pendant, lucky number 7:)

I am so proud to have a design in Vogue. The magazine is still on sale now and every time I go into a shop and see the magazine it makes me smile and feel proud of what I have achieved:)

Alexa Chung inspired skull necklace design

A card arrived this morning from Alexa Chung thanking me for the necklace I sent her! I will scan the card and put it on my next blog but I thought I would share one of my designs that was inspired by her lovely skull necklace that actually costs nearly $1000 but my version is only £20!









My Mr Bones version, which one do you prefer?

Alexa Chung is one of my idols so it is a honour to know she has my designs and that she wrote a thank you note to me. I sent Alexa Chung 3 designs that I will share in my next blog:)

P.S I didn't send Alexa Chung my Mr Bones design.

Davina McCall wearing my designs on Big Brother!

I am over the moon and so honoured that Davina McCall has been wearing my jewellery designs on Big Brother and Big Brother Little Brother!
I made her a lovely dainty necklace with a vintage blue crystal eye connector that can not be found anywhere so there is only 3 of these necklaces that have been made.





The beautiful Davina McCall on Big Brother 9th July 2010








This is one of my first designs I designed when I first started designing vintage inspired jewellery back in Oct/Nov 2009 and I feel this was fate that I never sold these so I could send this to Davina for the last ever Big Brother in the UK.

I have also made Davina McCall a vintage pink crystal eye version that she wore on the show Big Brother Little Brother on the 16th July 2010



















Davina McCall is an inspiring role model who is a very successful TV presenter and also a Mum like me:) She is so funny and makes me laugh and when ever she is on telly she cheers me up so I hope to watch more programmes with her when Big Brother is over.

Fearne Cotton is wearing my jewellery!



Fearne Cotton is a famous DJ for BBC Radio 1 and a TV presenter (style icon and fashion designer). She has been wearing my jewellery since 25/03/10 which is so exciting for me! Everyday she has been wearing my pendants and I'm lucky to be able to check on the BBC website as she has a section for photos of what she is wearing everyday.

The paparazzi also take photos of her leaving the BBC studio everyday so I have many photos of her wearing my jewellery. Check out my FACEBOOK FAN PAGE for more photos and info:)

P.S Become a Facebook Fan for a chance to win a freebie of my jewellery. Second competition coming soon:)

Happy Mother's Day!

Today is Mother's day in the UK and I was woken up to breakfast in bed! This was a lovely surprise, my partner and two kids woke me up with cards and presents too. I took some time out and went to the park for some quality family time.

I couldn't help but take a photo of my new pendant I made and wore today. This was inspired by angels! I believe in angels and ever since I started reading books about angels I see feathers everyday. Seeing feathers in your path is a sign from the angels so I wanted to make a feather pendant necklace to remind me that the angels are always with me. I love wearing long pendants lately and designed many new pieces with my new raw brass chain. I will be listing all my new long pendants soon:)
