New Designers

So this Sunday, myself and 10 other DOJ jewellers are heading down to the business centre in Islisting, London to exhibit at this years New Designers. New Designers gives newly design graduates the chance to exhibit there work with the hope of catching the eye of jewellery industry scouts/gallery owners and jewellery enthusiasts. There is also lots of if prizes on offer, here's hoping its our DoJ girls who walks away with some :).

We will be in London for 8 days and will definitely be taking up the opportunity to stock on some scrummy supplies at Hatton Garden!

As soon as I return ill pop up some pictures of out week

Our sunny day out...









The sun was shinning and there was only one place on our minds...Luss!

Just off the banks of Loch Lomond lies the tiny little town of Luss. This was our family hot spot when I was younger and it was so nice to finally get a day off with Scott (the boy) and head on over to Luss with the BBQ (My shiny new red one at that, which iv been desperate to get out of the box!). And I could help but take some pictures of this picturesque town. Heres hoping the rest of the summer keeps up like this so we can get some use out of my pretty BBQ. :)
