Lock up your daughters.........

....... Alex has arrived!


Meeting friends' new babies is always a lovely experience but today we met someone, who at times, I thought would never arrive. Tom and Hanna have been trying for a family for a long old time now. The journey has been a very long, painful one but about six weeks ago a call came from America to tell them that the mother, who had chosen them to adopt her son, had gone into labour.

They immediately flew to Florida and amazingly made it just in time for Tom to cut the cord. After a stressful month in the States going through the motions of adoption they have finally returned home with beautiful baby Alexander.

Meeting him today was truly special. Tom and Hanna now have their missing piece and their home feels so complete.


Sam made the new family a wonderful card featuring Super Sam and Super Alex.

And of course, I couldn't resist the oportunity to make a keepsake for Hanna.

Beautiful baby Alex was well worth the wait - Congratulations Tom and Hanna, Mummy and Daddy. Watch out though, I reckon you have a heartbreaker on your hands x

Across the pond

It seems the urge for unique personalised jewellery is not confined to this green and pleasant land. American clients have been clamoring for their very own sterling silver keepsakes - among them a mother of three with two sons on tour in Iraq. Her Chambers Maxi necklace lets her keep her loved ones close to her heart. Now all I have to do is get her on Oprah...

Mothers day falls in early May in US giving me a little extra time to adorn the maternal neckline. Orders have started coming in, so far no interesting names; maybe I'll get a few Obamas next year. In the meantime Mary, a hairdresser from Boston has been loving her Mini Necklace. The 19 inch chain routinely dangles in her clients face during their shampoo. Chambers & Beau hypnosis, nice marketing technique; thanks Mary!

If you would like to make your mum feel special this year with one of my keepsakes, there is still time so get shopping here!
