Folksy Friday - Scottish Gems!

Its that time of the week again!!! I always love to encourage to shop local and shop handmade. Since I am a Scotland based jewellery maker and crafter, I thought I would showcase a fraction of the talent we have here. Folksy is a great platform for this. So here is my picks for this week. Some are just newbies so please have a look!!

No 1:Stag brooch by Alexis Southam Jewellery

No 2:Silver and garnet necklace by Karen Heriot Jewellery

No 3:Floral charm bracelet with raspberries by Bedecked Beads

No 4:Silver seashell pendant with lilac crystal by Deep Blue See Silver

No 5:Shooting stars by Shoogly Beads

No 6:Leaf brooch by Aileen Clarke Crafts

And there you have it! Some lovely bits and bobs from Scotland. Please have a wee look and let me know what you think. All the best!!
