Welcome to the February newsletter! Despite the cold weather outside, we're happy to spread a little warmth with our romantically inspired issue! This month we have lots of new mixes, a range of beautiful lockets for you to make into personalised jewellery and lots of Valentine's project inspiration as well as our take on the popular Shamballa style bracelets.
Diamante Mixes
Diamantes are a fantastic way of adding sparkle to all your craft and jewellery projects, whatever medium you choose to use. We have now introduced 4 mixes to our ever popular 3mm range, providing an economical way to embellish your designs. Why not try using them with Stampbord, within card making or even for adding sparkle to your phone! Click here to view.
Lockets
As lockets are traditionally given as a token of affection to a loved one, what better time to introduce our new range! All of our lockets have space for 2 photos and are a lovely way of commemorating special events such as relationships, weddings or new additions to the family. Keep your loved ones close to your heart in these vintage inspired lockets, view here.
Acrylic Flower Mixes
Due to popular demand, we have now created acrylic flower mixes! There is a mix for each size, and each one contains 2 each of the 10 colours that we sell. This is a wonderful way to create a range of jewellery without a large start up cost, making them ideal for those just starting their own handmade business. Click here for more details.
Shamballa Bracelet
Shamballa bracelets have quickly become a runaway success, with stars like Jay Z and Beyonce wearing them with pride. However, as the designer versions tend to be expensive, we've created our own take on the trend. Ideal as a Valentine's gift for a fashion loving couple! Click here for full instructions and lots of male & female design ideas.
