JOANNA SWAN - BLOOMIN' GORGEOUS EARRINGS & MUCH MORE!

It's so lovely to have Joanna Swan at this year's fair with her beautiful hand made jewellery.

Joanna is a singer-songwriter who also happens to be one of the most creative people I know - hence one of her other roles as a fabulous jewellery maker and the creator of Blooming Gorgeous Earrings and Joanna Swan Jewellery.  

Each pair of earrings is handmade, unique and affordable.  Joanna's a colourholic and can put any conceivable shade together - from bright, kitsch, antiqued, to soft and subtle.  It's imperative to her that every piece is eye-catching and also extremely light and comfortable to wear (I can vouch for this myself!).  Her earrings make fabulous bridesmaids' presents and can be colour matched to their dresses or favourite colour.

Joanna's stunning one-off necklaces are more expensive as so much work goes into them and they're fabulous, individual creations! 

Come and meet Joanna at the fair and have a chat about what she can do for you! 

Earrings £15; Necklace £85

LILYGRACE ORIGINALS - FAIRYTALE JEWELLERY FOR YOUR MAGICAL DAY

If you want a fabulous piece of distinctive jewellery for your wedding day, then look no further than Lilygrace Originals   

Founded in 2008, Lilygrace Originals is the creation of Hazel Mathiot, a maker and designer who studied painting for her Fine Art degree.  Hazel loves making things and over  the years has experimented with all sorts of materials and creations but eventually settled on jewellery.

And we're so glad she did!  Her beautiful designs have an incredibly distinctive style, mixing different media with various influences including the jewellery of Miriam Haskell and strong female icons such as Frida Kahlo and Elsa Schiaparelli.

Her pieces include earrings, necklaces, bracelets, cuffs and rings and are total flights of fancy inspired by Hazel's love of vintage and her magpie eye, some in beautiful pastel hues and others in bright jewel colours.

If you have a vintage picture, say of your grandmother, that you'd like Hazel to incorporate into your jewellery she's very happy to do so, and much of her work is hand-painted.

These flights of fancy are all perfect little works of art, made by hand and using Hazel's creative talents.

So if you want something special to dazzle and enchant on your special day come and visit Hazel's stand - you won't be able to resist.
