New Collections

I've been totally buzzing this week with ideas and have been quite productive on the making front. I have been looking at 2 different styles - imagery in dichroic and textured cabochons for the attractive triangle bails.For more designs please see www.facebook.com/elisaloves
Next week I will launch a collection of textured rings and hopefully (fingers and toes crossed) my new logo so that my branding can start to link my online and offline collections. Exciting times at EL HQ! Have a fabulous weekend, bridesmaid duties call me for lovely Lara on her special day! E x

Sunshine brings sales!

I've had a great sales week this week and some of my favourite designs of the moment have sold so I'm really pleased. Below are a few that sold and if you like anything don't forget I can make similar but never the same!

So this weekend is set to be productive stage 1 of project garage commences - I must take photos of the stages. It is full to the brim of stuff ready for the tip which is exactly where it is off to tomorrow. 2013 will see my fabulous workshop become a reality. I'm soooo excited you cannot believe. Or maybe you can if your a fellow crafter/maker lacking space. What are you up to this weekend? Have a great one, Elisa :)

This week.....

Just as I've been moaning that I haven't had enough time to be creative I have just sat back and realised I've made a new set of lapis glass beads, a fascinator, some cuff links and a birdcage veil. So maybe I was being a little harsh on myself! I've been doing some more research and think I have finally "got" Pinterest. So all in all not so shabby as week's go. Cross fingers this weekend the little details will get sorted - a shelf, a clock and some paint splodges will all result in my new kitchen being finished then to move onto the garage aka a new Elisa zone. Have a fab weekend and I'll leave you with some photos. E x

Dates for your diary

Some upcoming events where you'll find me.... 9th March Southsea Boutique Market, 20th April Handmade in Havant, 11th May Highbury Primary and 23rd June All woman Show. I am still in a state of dis organisation but have kept up with my commissions. Horray! Put the kiln on this morning with some fab cufflinks and a few test pieces. My creativity is stirring again and I'm looking forward to sharing my new designs and ideas at these upcoming events. Have a fab week, Elisa :)

January!

So today it's finally starting to feel like January - bright sunny skies and freezing cold winds. Hope you are all in full swing of those resolutions! January is set to be a little quieter than normal on the making front. I have no events booked and am only working on my outstanding commissions. Sigh I hear you say! Well I do have good reason. I'm moving house, saying goodbye to my lovely flat with kitchen studio and moving into a shiny house with a garage. This garage will become my work space extraordinaire. I am very excited but the stress of moving is taking it's toll - I'm zitty and have huge black bags!! So please bear with me..... and just to tease here is my latest commission. Have a good week, E x

Happy Holidays!!

Thank you to all my new and continuing customers as well as by lovely stockists. I look forward to 2013 and to making my new ideas reality! Happy Holidays! Elisa x

I'm off enjoying the holidays and will respond to any queries on Weds 2nd Jan 2013.

Snow is falling......

all around us! Well it's actually pouring with rain here but on my jolly to London yesterday I had the pleasure of seeing the stunning fields all covered in snow just magical. It also has made me think I want to work on my landscape pendants in the new year. So this week I have made some commission beads - I soooo need more torch time!

Below are 2 examples of another style I have been working on with the design help of Cut.It.Out.

Have a great weekend, Elisa x
