It was super exciting to launch our new collection of custom wooden jewellery late on Thursday night - we've been developing the idea for so long now so it was a relief to get them online and then kinda scary when all the orders came flooding in and reality hit that we had to now make them all! Sam and I decided to work the weekend to get the first batch done - laying the artwork out, sanding the wooden shapes, applying the artwork and a double coating of lacquer and then making into jewellery. I took a quick snap of the pendants while they were drying - can you see your name in there???

Talking of tattoos we met the lovely Susan a few weeks ago who popped into Superette to buy a pair of Lolita sunnies. She'd come all the way from Oxford and she excitedly told us about her Lady Luck Rules OK logo tattoos - wow! I'm a bit of a scaredy cat when it comes to needles so I think I'll make do with my Swallow name necklace for now!
