About Me

Stirling, Scotland, United Kingdom
I love making jewellery of all kinds. Scrabble and Lego jewellery have been popular for a while but now the 50 Shades of Grey range and the Zingy Blobs are selling well too. I make everything from unique gemstone necklace sets to phone charms. I love making tiaras and bridal jewellery and offer a bespoke service. Cufflinks are very much back in fashion and I have a large selection and am always making more. Pop over to the Jude's Jewels website and have a look.

Struggling to Keep Up

Hi everyone,

Just a quick Blog today as I really am struggling to keep up with website orders, making stock for markets, ordering new stock and generally just keeping the business going. So much to do and not enough hours in the day to get it all done. But such is life and I'm not complaining.



Looks like people have started to shop early for Christmas as I am already getting some quite large orders coming in on the website.
Been doing the usual round of markets. Sloan's in Glasgow is proving very good for us. We just seem to be catching the right customers there, and they are loving our jewellery.



Farmers markets have been a bit quiet this month, but hopefully they will get busier in the next week or so.

We have been getting a lot of bookings for Christmas events so it looks like I'd better make up a good selection of new jewellery to keep ahead of demand. We will be at the Novotel in Edinburgh for 3 days at the beginning of December, for a Christmas Market. Also taking part in a Farmers Market in the Howgate in Falkirk in the week before Christmas.

Halloween jewellery has been selling well, as have Cufflinks, Scrabble rings, Lego Rings, Jammy Dodger Rings and Chocolate Star Rings. Although Domino Rings have been on the stalls for a while, I've just listed them on the website too.




Lego Minifigure pendants are selling very well and I'm getting lots of commission orders too. Just about to list Hermione and R2D2.

This week you can find us at Stirling University tomorrow, Sloans market on Saturday and Sunday, and Fencebay Farmers market on Sunday too. Unfortunately due to Jens work schedule we will not be at Paisley farmers market on Saturday. We will be back there onthe 12th November.

I'd better go and get cracking on todays orders, lots to get into the post.

Love and best wishes.

Jude xx
