Fabric necklaces. Handmade with Cath Kidston fabric. Unique!


I've made some more necklaces this week, as they have proved so popular - thank you very much for your orders. I've made more hearts, as these ones seem to be especially popular. There's always something very special about heart jewellery, I think. 
 The first is made one from the ever popular rosali fabric, and am especially thrilled with this one. It's just so pretty this fabric, and it's destined to become a classic. How lovely to wear it!
Next, I've got a gorgeous one made from Cath Kidston's lush strawberry fabric:


A pretty gingham ribbon hooks it onto the necklace -
all necklaces are made by myself from waxed cotton cord.



I also have one in the stone Cath Kidston paisley, shown next to the rosali necklace here:


It has a lace ribbon to hold it onto the necklace. I then made a heart from the pink Cath Kidston paisley, which I set onto cord with a red gingham ribbon:


That's about all for now.


 The lower one in the photograph above is another Cath Kidston, and very pretty indeed. I've set this slightly differently, to hang at an angle, as I thought it worked really well that way.


 Let me know which design you would like when you order. I love making these, and a lot of time goes into each. They are set on a hand cut wood base, and slightly padded. I've made a couple for friends which are filled with a little lavender - give a squeeze, and you release a beautiful smell (if you like lavender!).
If you would like one made this way, just ask. It's 50 pence extra - the lavender is from a local organic farm, and is gorgeous. The hearts are just over 5 cm across. Length of the cord is approx 44 cm.

GB £7.50 each  or £8 for a necklace with lavender stuffing.
