Tatty Devine superfan goodies

Back in November Tatty Devine began searching for 25 superfans to help celebrate their 15th birthday next year.  Lots of my friends nominated me and I was lucky enough to be picked. My superfan goodies arrived the other day. I was lucky enough to receive a personalised card from the founders of the company, a limited edition platinum glitter heart badge, a canvas bag and a voucher to design and make my very own charm bracelet.  Feeling very lucky and excited to pick and design my bracelet.. They also want to run a feature on each of the superfans for their website.. :-D

Personalised map ring

Another amazingly thoughtful Christmas gift was from my friend Ace, who gave me this personalised map ring. You can pick any place and they will find it on a map and make it into a ring. She picked my Highland home, where I grew up and love and still visit often.. I just love it, there's no place like home.. ;-)

Christmas 2013 treats..

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and that you got lots of goodies.. I was lucky enough to get a couple of Tatty Devine treats..
From my friend Hannah I got a pair of Pegasus earrings in iridescent.. The best thing about these earrings is that they change colours so will go with lots of different outfits..
I also got some big jewel print earrings from my mum.. These earrings look like a giant jewel with little jewels around them but they are actually a jewel photo printed onto perspex.. They are in a lovely turquoise blue colour..

Chameleon necklace

This arrived today my lovely chameleon necklace.. The chameleon is see through sitting on a branch so no matter what pattern of top you are wearing it looks like the chameleon has changed his colouring to match.. Very clever.. It arrived beautifully wrapped with a personal message included.
I bought this from www.howkapow.com they have a wide range of jewellery and home items, I will definitely be visiting this website again..

Ryan Gosling ring

I got my Ryan Gosling ring from La La Land a lovely little shop just off Byres road in Glasgow.. The shop is soon to be closing so the owner can concentrate on her online business, so if you want a look at all the amazingly different jewellery then go to.. WWW.LIVINGINLALALAND.CO.UK
Enjoy!!

Jingle Bells earrings

Something for the season, I got these Jingle Bells earrings from Papyrus, Byres Road, Glasgow.  They are lovely to wear but be prepared for some ringing in your ears..

My name necklace

I was introduced to the joy of Tatty Devine by an old work colleague and I was hooked.  The first thing I bought was a name necklace in purple with a star charm. As I have an unusual name it is difficult to find anything with my name on so I was delighted to be able to get this made.  You can get anything you want written in lots of various colours (you pay a little extra for glitter) and with lots of different charms to choose from to. 

Where to begin..

I am well known within my circle of friends for my alternative jewellery.. I love something a little bit different.. I am going to use this blog to show you some of my more unusual pieces and give you tips on where you can get them for yourself..  I love to find most of my jewellery at small local businesses but also online two of my favourite sites are http://www.tattydevine.com and http://www.bonniebling.co.uk/ you will definitely see some of their products on here..
