Recycling Scrap Gold

In the spirit of all things eco – and because they’ve written a quick blog article on my Fair Trade Design website) I’m giving a quick introduction to Birmingham Jewellery Quarter based company Scrap Gold. They’re a long standing family run business dealing in recycled gold and silver jewellery. So if you have any gold or silver jewellery lying around in a draw somewhere and want to take advantage of the still high gold price, give them a call on 0845 437 4469 or visit the Scrap Gold website.

Busy Times

I must say the start of July seems to have a busy couple of weeks, the ladies pamper night at Church went really well and everyone had a good time we managed to raise £127 for the building fund which was a bonus as we didn't set out to raise money, I think we will be doing something similar later on in the year for Christmas. (oh no the C word mentioned in July) other events have included My mom celebrating her 83rd Birthday,a stall at Lichfield festival on a very hot day last Saturday, a big stock take and thinking of some new jewellery designs to try out .However the hi light so far this month has to be tonights trip to Harvey Nics for a business net working event, free Champagne and a goodie bag, a make-up demonstration and a min fashion show all lovely. Bed time now, another busy day in store tomorrow as |I'm back at Bham uni for the social sciences summer b-bq (yes I'm even selling jewellery there- hopefully) see you all soon Love Gillx

New Talent Tied Bunches !

This weeks update

What's been happening in the world of Fair Trade design ? well I've been busy getting ready for the ladies pamper night which I have been organising for Friday night at Duke Street Chapel in Sutton Coldfield. Ladies have been very keen to get tickets and we are now over 70 (i only expected 20,so I have over achived considerably) I've made quite a few pairs of button earrings as they are a bit of a best seller at the moment. They sell for £5.00 a pair and complement the Button bracelets really well.
