My Amazing Present!

Hello folks!

Another very busy week even though I've been on leave from the day job! I've been visiting family 200 miles away to swap presents and visit relatives.  I think I've now posted all my Christmas sales and I really hope that all my customers are pleased on the day.

It's well known that my husband spoils me, however, today he presented me with a un-xmas present that totally blew me away.



This stunning book was created in secret over some weeks and represents samples of my work, past and present. It is beautiful with large glossy pictures.  My husband is familiar with the concept of these books as he's an artist and he produced his first book of paintings last year, following it very recently with a second book, but I had never thought about having one for my own work.  I've included some sample pages so that you can see more of my pieces. 

The books are manufactured by http://www.blurb.com to your own design using their template and you can order just one or multiples.  I think this is a great idea for creative people who are a little shy about showing their work.  It isn't too difficult to show a range of designs to prospective customers, galleries or stockists by carrying the book around.  It might even work for small groups of like minded people to share a book.






I've also included some sample pages of some of my aluminium collections that I haven't previously featured on my blog.



This collection is called Lemon Drizzle Cake and is available currently from http://www.fromthewilde.co.uk









This collection is called Bamboo Jungle and is mostly available from my website http://www.slicksilverjewellery.co.uk. If you take a look at the site and can't see the piece you're looking for let me know - I might still have it.






This is the Purple Rain collection and some pieces can be found at http://www.love-local.com









If anyone would like to take a closer look at the full preview of my book or even buy a copy (?!?) it can be found at http://www.blurb.com/books/2771499. If you'd also like to see my husband's artwork, his books can be found under David Muddyman at http://www.blurb.com/books/1774024 and http://www.blurb.com/books/2720532.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to wish you and all of my SlickSilver Jewellery customers and friends old and new a really happy, peaceful Christmas and New Year.
