Craft Fair

Hello, everyone! This is Berry here.

Every summer, I spend around a fortnight at the Isle of Wight- and every year, there's a local fair. Anyone can set up a stall, and indie businesses abound.

This year, I spent the days leading up to the fair beavering away, creating new stock, and set up a stall for Bloom and Berry! Loads of people asked about whether we had a site, how I made my polymer clay items, and lots of other things.

Now, the reason I've been putting this post off it because I haven't got the pictures as of yet- they weren't taken by me and I haven't received them yet.

But I figured I may as well update you all on the goings-on and wait to update this post when the pictures arrive.

So, Lovely photos soon- hopefully!

Hello everyone,

Well finally I have some pictures of my rings for you!

I went into a fabulous shop in town called Cornacopia (it means 'A bit of everything') and the woman loved them. She bought 5 for £10 and is interested in buying more.

There are not many pictures but now I know what to do I will be uploading some more very soon!

Sorry for the long wait!

Love

What you can look forward to

Hello, all!

This is Berry here. We've had some news from Fearless about our stock, which is awesome! However this means that we still have no stock with us, boo hoo.

Recently I ordered some necklaces, which means I can focus on making nicer, bigger and more intricate pieces for pendants! We've also still got lots of findings so as soon as I can get those creative juice flowing properly you can look forward to new designs!

I've also uncovered some of my beading stash and am currently attempting to make a cute little dragon to guard my 'potions'! (more on that soon).

But where is Bloom, I hear you ask? Bloom's currently ono holiday, but she'll be back soon, don't worry!

Where to Find us

Hello, all!

Recently, Dready Derry Designs asked me where to find our stuff in Fearless.

Although you may have seen that Bloom and Berry is based in Cornwall, we haven't bragged about it much until recently, as our business (was) mostly internet based. But now that you can find our designs somewhere other than at our online shop, we thought we'd give a little run-down of our location, or stockist and where to find us.

We are based in Cornwall, in and around the Bude area, and Port Isaac is around 20 minutes drive away (Cornwall is full of windy roads and hills!)

If you ever visit Cornwall, I recommend Port Isaac - not just to see Fearless!- as it is a lovely town with nice eateries, hotels, and beaches. It's not been corrupted by tourism, either.

P.S Since I feel guilty just posting random question-answer-blog posts, here's a link to a super-cute giveaway from Messy Carla! No, don't thank me :P

Business Cards and Fearless News!

Hello, all!

I went down to Fearless yesterday, to show the shop owner examples of my stock.. And she took it all! She also gave me some nice 'secret' hints and tips, which I can use to create better work for everyone! I'm hoping that the lovely people of Port Isaac like my stuff and lap it up, haha.

Visiting Port Isaac? See if you can spot some lovely polymer clay things on the front desk-thing. :D

I'll be uploading some photos of things I sent down, as most of it was new and made for the occasion, and these pictures are much better quality, haha.

The second item of 'news' is that we're getting business cards, hopefully! I've decided to go with Mini Moo cards by Moo for their low minimums and unique card shape. I'll hopefully publish a review when they arrive!

But for now, here is a preview of our main design (and some alternate colourways)...

I hope you like them!

From, Berry!
