Jewellery Club | Donut Quest

It's that time of the month again where we finally get to share with you this months jewellery club. This months theme was of course Donuts! Because all good things are deep fried and covered in sugar right?! 😆🤔 I put a little twist on this theme and drew a unicorn donut as well as a kitty donut too! But before we go into that lets take a quick look at the listing image....

Ta dahhhhh! Look at all the pastel iced goodness.

Now I'm not going to sugar coat this 😆 But this has to be one of my favourite themes we have ever done. It was truly a pleasure to make this collection and produce such a sweet jewellery set. Don't take my word for it! Let's have a look at some of the pictures!....

Isn't it lush?! So in this set I created
-Rainbow Unicorn acrylic necklace with satin bow (RRP £15)
-Mini Cat donut acrylic stud earrings (RRP £6)
-Triple donut adjustable ring (RRP £6)
-Rose Gold pink donut earrings (RRP £7)
-Set of four metal 1" donut pins (RRP £5)
- A sprinkle of magic!

Okay I seriously can't pick a favourite from this month! The unicorn necklace is just amazing! The kitty studs are so cute and the perfect size for everyday wear, the ring instantly makes any outfit super Kawaii! I love the rose gold colour on the donut earrings and the pins are perfect for pimping up your bags! I kept a necklace and ring for myself as there wasn't any of the earrings left 😭

We do have a few of the donut quest jewellery boxes left and they are listed in our Etsy shop here, if you missed out!

While I'm here I'm also super excited to share with you our next jewellery club theme which is of course.... Day of the dead.....

Eeeeek!!! I'm already bouncing at the thought of making all of the goodies up for this theme. I'll need to remember to make extra this time just for me! 😄 So, if you want to get your hands on this, it will go on sale on Saturday the 1st of October at 9am over on the jewellery club website here. 🎉

Don't forget we are also holding our second last flash sale of the year this Friday over on our Facebook page here. It all kicks off from 7pm and will feature our best sellers, discounts on some of our new arrivals as well as a few freebies too! Join the event page here for a reminder!

I hope you week is full of magic and glitter!

HOW Jewellery Club - Mermaid

The time has come to reveal February's HOW Jewellery Club box contents!  This month was Mermaids! ....because who doesn't love mermaids right?  So for this box I wanted to create some fun bits as well as a more grown up take on the mermaid theme. When researching it I came across a lot of  cartoony mermaid illustrations and for this collection I wanted something a bit more subtle! So let's firstly take a look at the main photo used on our listing.

Here it is! ...but  it also has a big clue as to what was in the box as we included one of these prints in the box!

So with the theme in mind let's take a look at what was in the latest HOW Jewellery Club box!

In this box you will find:

-Laser cut pink shell charm necklace (RRP £12)

-Hand sculpted shell ring with organza bag and sequins! (RRP £5)

-Limited Edition Rockin Claws, Mermaid (RRP £3.50)

-Magical sea scented bath salts (RRP £2.50)

-Anchor hair slide (RRP £5)

-Mermaid glossy die cut stickers (RRP £5)

-Sparkly sea blue pencils (RRP £2.50)

-Secretly a mermaid print (RRP £6)

-Custom made heart of the ocean candy (RRP £1)

-Part time mermaid pin from punky pins (RRP £5)

-A business card to one of our favourite stores the Art of Silvia "Silly" Ballardini
-HOW Newsletter with punky pins interview

This box was great fun to make! The bath salts left HOW HQ smelling gorgeous for about a week! My favourites from this box are the pink shell necklace and the punky pins brooch as well as the stickers!  Next months theme will of course be 50's Diner and will be released on the 1st of March, 9am over at the HOW jewellery club website! 

If you missed this box fear not! We now have a couple more available over in our Etsy store right here

Have a magicial day little Wonderlanders and don't forget our next box launches on Tuesday! Whoop Whooop!

The birth of Ninja Kitty....

Over the past few days I have been working hard on coming up with some new ideas.... I wanted to share one of them with you and the progress of the design :) So here is Ninja Kitty.  Inspired by my crazy little furball of a kitten, Dinah.  I swear she gets up to so many adventures when my back is turned! See how the little kitty was born by scrolling down below :)

Original pen outline

Having a play with some potential colours...

Next Ninja Kitty was scanned into the computer and outlined...

After the outline was completed it was time to add some colour!

and after a bit of fiddling, tweaking and changing....

Ninja Kitty was completed!

I hope you like our little Ninja Kitty as much as we do! I can't wait to see him on a range of HOW goodies.  What would you like to see him on?

Make your baby look foxy!

WOW! What a busy start to the year already.  It's been all go here at HOW HQ with orders, plotting and planning as well as working on new patterns!  Speaking of which we have a brand new one for you today... Here is our knitted fox cub hat:

Could this be the most adorable hat I have ever made??? ...I think so! It's a simple knit hat worked over two needles and joined together at the back with a seam.  It would be amazing in a whole rainbow of colours too!  You can find the pattern over in our Etsy digital shop right here.

Can't knit? hmmm... Well we are now taking on custom orders! Whooo hooo! So get in touch at sales@how-store.com to commission your very own piece of Wonderland!  Check out some of our past makes below....

Be sure to share any of your awesome HOW makes on our social pages! We would LOVE to see them!

Happy knitting!
