In Stock SALE...


Hello everyone - as promised, I have done my sums, totted up the stock...and so, hereby launch the 25% off 'In Stock SALE'...

Click HERE to shop the category, where everything is marked down accordingly {normal price noted in the listing for each}...

There are VERY limited numbers of the designs in stock - most only one or two of each...so I have switched on the inventory bars to help show you how many are in stock!! 

All items ready to ship - so *perfect* for Valentines Day or just as a new year treat!

Enjoy!!! xoxo

p.s. - MANY thanks to Ryan at DesireLines who produced the snazzy imagery above. Photoshop wasn't playing for me, so I pulled in a real wizard to help with the job! ;)

Gathering...

Despite it being 'Winter' in California...it was more like an early, mild Autumn from the point of view of the plant-life. I managed to find these amazing leaves, and got pressing. I am imagining very large, very delicate brooch forms...the red one, pierced from sheet metal - the brown ones, perhaps carved forms...?

I think I will make those for an exhibition I have coming up in early summer...! But my mind is whirring on them now...

This month is speeding by! January is supposed to be slow and sleepy...no such thing on the to-do front...just me that's a little slow and sleepy. I think I want to hibernate ;)

Hopefully kicking off my little sale tomorrow - in time for lurve day...so stay tuned for that. I'd better get back to the bench and catch up some, the day is already running away from me.

Back soon, have a good one! xo

Hello to you, and to 2009...



...2009. More than half way through month one, no less. Who would have thought?

I had a fantastic vacation in America, staying with my brother and sister-in-law {Sacramento and some time in San Francisco}...via Lake Tahoe {snow on the beach is a wonder, who knew?}...*a few snaps from the trip above*...

I even had the pleasure of meeting the divine Diana at Tartine for tea whilst in SF...good times!!

So. 2009. Three years at this blogging lark - I can hardly believe it! I was speaking to someone recently who remarked that *no one* can be THAT interesting...and, laughing, I had to agree with him ;)) I really am very privileged to have people stop by and read my ramblings and continue to care to peek at the happenings from the workbench...so, truly, thank you.

Now that I am back, I had better give you a wee run down of what to expect from me in 2009, in the coming weeks, at least...for starters, there will be a sale in the shop ahead of Valentines Day {starting this week, hopefully}!! I have had stock come into the studio from a Christmas show, and so...will be doing a RTS {ready to ship} sale on those items - including some bigger pieces too, so keep your eyes peeled if you are in the market for a treat...!!

;)

Happy Monday everyone, and well, Happy New Year. Let's make it a good one!!
love to all, xo.

Merry Merry...

Hello everyone...just stopping in, after what seems like a mammoth break - and a crazy busy few weeks finishing up work! I am in California now visiting my brother {for the first time in 4 years!} and my lovely sister in law...enjoying different horizons and {sort of} blue skies...

I just wanted to wish everyone the most wonderfully Merry Christmas - thinking of you all, friends, and hoping you are all having, and have had, a truly lovely day with family and friends...

Enjoy your loved ones and appreciate all the good things you have in your life. Tis the time of year to remember...and to focus on that above all else.

lots of love to all,
xo

Carnage...


I looked around the studio last night, after doing my last big post office drop with all my US and Europe-bound orders...and was, as I very often am, faced with a scene of carnage! I am not sure if it can even be called 'organised chaos'...but it really is a scene that faces me all too often. Perhaps it is time to admit it - I am just plain messy when I make ;)) 

Well! At least something neat comes out of it in the end, egh? 

Anyway...I thought I should share - unedited. Next time you see my bench, it will be swept and cleared - finished up for Christmas {which, I am still shocked to be reminded, is really not much more than one working week away - eek...or should I say, EEK! Capitals seem called for.}...

Looking forward to getting torn into my UK* orders now...and am almost, almost, beginning to feel Festive - imagine! ;)

Righto...signing off for the night, and a quiet one in too! Bliss :)
Happy Saturday all, Bon Weekend too!

xo

* if you are UK based, there is still time to place orders {don't forget your discount code THANKYOU2008} - so feel free :) !!

Tak Tak Tak!!...


Goodness! Thank you *so* much for all your kind words and emails - not to mention your orders...really delighted people like the new bits so much - your support is hugely appreciated...!!

...I am working like a Trojan in the studio to get all the orders for the States out before Friday. {I am on track!} 

For those of you who would still like to order something - I have marked the titles in the Etsy shop as READY TO SHIP where the pieces are in stock {lots of the new pieces are!} and can be popped straight in the mail - there are also a few ready to ship items in my main shop too - right here...I thought this would make things easier if you still have shopping to do! ;) 

**{don't forget the 10% off code for the main shop, see post below for details!!}...

Odd little bits from my day {above}...

:: A bowl of bright pink soup {Beetroot, Parsnip, Horseradish and Ginger, should you ask!} which was delicious - I really will get around to restoring my coffee table one of these days!

:: Wrapping and boxing up orders - often my favourite part of the process...I just got new Moo cards printed with some of my new designs! I always love getting new printed goodies...

:: Wandering home in the pitch dark from the post office an hour or so ago and, like a total sap, looking up at the enormous pale moon and thinking how beautiful it is tonight.

Right! Back to the workshop with me...
xo to all.

Finally, it's like Christmas!...

At last! Everything is finished and ONLINE :) It's been heaps of work - running to catch up this year, photographing, writing, editing and fiddling {not to mention making}...but I am so happy to show you all the new work for Christmas 2008 - finally uploaded and in my Etsy Shop!

Scroll down here to see some shots of all the new pieces, as well as more information below about all the ways to shop with me this Holiday Season...{and a little blog-reader reward to boot!}....


*This Christmas - you will find me, and my work in three places!

:: My Main Online Shop - which houses the Vintage Collection...

:: My Etsy Shop - with a mixture of catalogue designs, as well as limited editions, work in silver and the new Holiday collection...

:: Souls of Shadows - my collaboration with Sophie Mouleyre back in late Autumn, which you can track back through our blog and shop the bijoux online too...

To thank *you* for all your continued support throughout the year, your kind comments here on the blog and your purchases - here is a little token of my appreciation...a discount code for a sneaky wee 10% off my Vintage Collection - just enter the code THANKYOU2008 upon checkout :)

I hope you enjoy browsing the new work...{it's mixed in with some renewed listings, so have a good rummage through! ;)}...it's been a real pleasure making it, so I hope some of you will end up wearing these pieces for Christmas. It really is a special time of year for a jeweller, knowing their work is off around the world...so I am looking forward to seeing where pieces will fly off to this year!

xox, Abigail
