In the words of the famous song ..... it really is!
I love this time of year, the threat of gorgeous white snow (well in our dreams in North London), the fairy lights twinkling as you drive along the North Circular, the Christmas muzak in every store (well maybe not that) but you get the idea. However, what I hate is thinking about buying pressies for my loved ones and friends - every year I try and be a little bit innovative but end up in Boots on Christmas Eve raiding what's left of the Soap & Glory box sets!
This year I have decided to give all the ladies and girls earrings - groan I can hear them cry - because I make earrings I have never really been able to give them as gifts however, I have decided to design special earrings especially for my family and friends using the first letters of their names - don't tell them, I like them quite a lot and am going to sell them to my lovely customers shhhh - this is what I came up with, what do you think?

E = Emily = Emeralds - My niece Emily has striking blonde hair (she's so lucky being a natural blonde, costs me £100 a quarter for my highlights) - I think these dark green urchin earrings with Swarovski crystals will work well for her. Hope you like them Em!

T = Tina = Tanzanite - ah Tina, the most difficult person in our family to buy for. Every year I get frantic calls from my mum and sisters, what shall we buy Tina, as if I know something they don't. Don't get me wrong, she is always grateful but she's one of those people that a Molton Brown hand wash set, just wont cut it! Hope you like these earrings Tina my lovely. If you do one nil to me!!

A = Amelie (not to be confused with her cousin Emily) = Aurora Borealis or AB for short - Amelie is quite a girly girl and loves anything delicate and dainty so these AB crystal earrings made using one of the most loved Swarovski crystals will be just perfect.

This ones a bit of a cheat as I don't have any stones starting for F for Fiona (or Fi to her friends). I thought V sounded a bit like Fi (get it, no, oh sorry best I could do) so for Fiona it's Swarovski's gorgeous medium Vitrail stone. Shines like strained glass windows (that's what Vitrail means don't you know lol). Love these and I think Fi will do for sure.
