We received a large Preciosa Crystal delivery this week almost entirely filled with bicones 🎉

So the few colours that have recently been out of stock have arrived!

The delivery has also enabled us to put together our popular ranges of bicone mixes in both 5mm & 6mm to compliment our 3mm and 4mm ranges.

Which colourway is your favourite?

A pair of new earrings or a cute pendant is a great way to revitalise your summer wardrobe without buying clothes 😃 (and it’s a lot more cost effective 😉)!

Our fun enamel charms are vibrant and cheerful. Perfect for making a quick pair of earrings or simple necklace!

I love the yellow daisies for a pop of summer colour! Check out our full range on the website or on our shop 🌼 🐳 🌻 🍫 🪴🐝🌵🍉🪄

You may have heard us mention before that with the help of a grant from the city council we will soon have a new website with a connected till system, integrated card readers and functioning stock management! 🙌 This will improve our lives no end and vastly improve your shopping experience! 

We’ve been working on it for a long time, mainly the boring bits behind the scenes, so now we’d love to know the features you’re hoping our new site will have, whether that’s a favourite part of our current site (ie project pages) or whether there’s bit you’re hoping we’ll add or improve. Please drop us a quick comment below 👇 with what’s most important to you so we know what to focus on!

We got these lovely Mermaid tails in a little while ago, they’re cute and fun and we thought they’d go down well at some of the events we’ve attended recently. However we have also discovered that EVERYONE in the shop has been loving them too. 🧜‍♀️

These whimsical, colourful glass pendants have raised quite a few smiles, so we thought it was definitely worth adding them to the website 😃

We’ve been enjoying making a few examples, whether you’re wearing them on their own or part of a bigger design they’re super fun! What would you make with them?

Wow we did not expect our limited edition Bermuda Blue Rivoli Bracelet kit to sell out quite that quickly 🤩 … but do not fear the remaining range are still available and just as sparkly! The pattern is also available separately so if you have 8.5mm rivolis waiting for inspiration this could be the project for you! And we also have a couple of other limited edition colour-ways coming soon so keep an eye on our newsletter to be the first to find out!

Look at the depth in these Bermuda Blue Rivolis! Having to say goodbye to our discontinued Sapphire rivolis is sad, however we couldn’t have found a more stunning replacement!

They are now the centrepiece of our longtime favourite Diamond Rivoli Bracelet Kit, but this limited edition kit won’t be around for long. This was the final pack we could get our hands on before they too were discontinued by Preciosa, so when they’ve gone we won’t be able to make any more in this colourway 😢.
