Jewelry by Magpies nest

Hello, and good evening everybody! If you're looking for some late night reading before bed or simply are looking for some quality jewelry then I have just the post for you.


I recently got approached by a gorgeous and lovely girl on Instagram wondering if we could maybe do a collaboration and I jumped at the chance.
She runs her own business in England and creates some of the most delicate and pretty jewelry I have ever seen.
You can check out her stuff here!!
 And these are the three items that she sent me 
This gorgeous amethyst necklace on 18' chain.
Usually retails for 4.77 EURO
This necklace is insanely durable and very well made.
This insanely gorgeous grey/purple titanium quartz necklace (left) which is my favourite of the two.
This piece usually retails at 4.51 EURO
The wiring of this one is a tad 'spikey' but is easily fixed.Such a stunningly beautiful necklace for such a low price! Bargain!
I love the super unusual colour of this piece. It is a truly unique piece of jewelry and you can see how well made these two necklaces are close up. (Below)
 I will be wearing these ALL Autumn/Winter because..I mean..look at them! they're perfect for this time of year! 
She also sent me this beautiful, delicate lilac anklet with a leaf charm. And I am in love with it! Its so pretty! This piece retails at 2.19EURO.

If you are interested in this fantastic jewelry you can visit her

I hope you do pop over and buy something here because you seriously wont regret it. She also sent me a lovely hand written letter which was just the cherry on top.

Thank you Magpies Nest! I am one truly happy customer!

Holly's Handmades - Review

Hello everyone, and hello September! I'm so sorry I have been out of action for a while, my internet was down a lot of the time but it's back now! (queue angels singing)


Now, first on my very long list of backed up posts include this gem.
Holly Skelton is a local craft maker from Tallaght who's work is gaining huge popularity!
Holly makes anything from jewelry, to decorations, and not forgetting her statement dream catchers.

Me and Holly have known each other for years.I recently contacted her to ask if she would like to be featured on my blog, she jumped at the chance and I couldn't have been happier. We arranged for her to send me a headpiece. And THIS is what I received.
Look at the gorgeous packaging!

When I opened the beautiful box I seen this 
A wonderful hand written letter and a mound of prettiness!
Fizzers,drumsticks,lovehearts and of course PARMA VIOLETS!
SO beautiful! I was completely overwhelmed!
She also through in this gorgeous hand made dream catcher!!

And the piece I was waiting for!
Isn't it amazingly stunning?!

She has included extra interchangeable charms for the front of the headpiece if I wish to change the look of the headpiece.
This is a really well crafted piece of jewelry, and I honestly could not be happier with it.
Over all for the product itself and the packaging, I would most definitely give this 10/10 and I seriously urge anyone who wants a truly original piece of jewelry to visit this girls page. Shes extremely creative so can help you with any ideas you would like to expand on.
