Hello everyone,
I'm not sure if that shouldn't actually read 'Good night' everyone as I've just seen the time.....! Realised that we've not posted a blog this week - mainly due to the fact I can't believe where this week has gone to - or that we are half-way through June.....
Someone asked me this week how our name came about, so I thought over the weekend I'd blog and let you all know how and why we decided on 'Fat Fairy Jewellery'.....
So until then...... I'll say 'Good night world'... xx

Hello everyone,
We've been busy here at Fat Fairy Jewellery working on our website this week and thought you might like to see a few photos of some jewellery we've made previously to give you an idea of what we make.

Most of the items here were made for special occassions - weddings, holidays etc and made for either family, friends, ourselves or to give as presents. The top necklace is made using a gorgeous Turquoise 'donut' to which buttons and various beads have been added. The matching wraparound bracelet is one of my personal favourite and one that I wear often. The matching heart ear-rings always get lots of comments!
This beautiful purple set was made to match my dress for a close friend's wedding last September and is made with gorgeous purple glass pearls and my very favourite Swarovski crystals!
The freshwater pearl ear-rings below are another favourite as they go with lots of things. They are made with pale ivory and coffee coloured freshwater pearls tiny black seed beads which really set of the pale colours of the pearls, Please leave us any comments as we'd love to hear from you.
p.s. have amended this blog as I realised the font was too small to read!

Hello everyone,
Fat Fairy Jewellery has just returned from a lovely Sunday lunch down in the Cotswolds. Now working on some more jewellery for our website! We are going to try and post a blog about 3 times a week at first - just to keep everyone updated on the progress of the website. Having seen how green and lush the beautiful Cotswolds countryside is looking, we are feeling very inspired tonight!

The very first post from Fat Fairy Jewellery.........
Hello world and a warm welcome to our first Blog!
Even though our website is still under construction, we thought we'd like to Blog and just say hi to everyone. Hopefully we will soon have some fans who will follow our progress to the completion and launch of http://www.fatfairyjewellery.com/. It's taking much longer than we thought and a lot more time but we've been told the end result will be worth it!
We are a family business based in the beautiful Warwickshire countryside and we love making jewellery using all kinds of beads (and boy, there are a lot of them out there to choose from...), buttons (our newest favourite) but our real love is gemstones and, of course, Swarovski crystals (who couldn't love them when they just sparkle so much?).
We take our inspiration from all sorts of places and things. Having just returned from Cornwall, we're now loving Turquoise gemstones as they remind us of the sea - along with the gorgeous blues and greens of the Swarovski crystals. The beautiful greens of the trees in our local park is making us think of using some Jade + Malachite crystals - along with the beautiful Green Aventurine as well. And as it's a lovely sunny day here, the Citrine crystals spring to mind along with some lovely round yellow Jade beads we have sitting here in our bead stash which would look lovely teamed with some Swarovski crystals.
Well, thats probably about enough from Fat Fairy Jewellery for now for our very first blog - we have now inspired ourselves to go and make some more jewellery to put on our website! Please feel free to leave us some comments - we'd love to hear from you!
