Mid January

I am just back from doing a trade fair in London called Top Drawer and as I suspected, it was a lot quieter than usual due to the recession and folk being extra careful with their pennies.  I launched a couple of new ranges which went down well and I will be expanding on over then next few months ready for the next trade fair that I will be attending in April called the British craft trade fair in Harrogate.

Happy New Year

Happy new year from all of us at Midas.  We had a good Christmas in the shop with steady sales throughout December despite the economic hardships that are effecting everyone of us.  We all think its going to be another tough year in retail so i will be going to great lengths to create new jewellery ranges made by myself and searching out other exciting designer makers from across the country.

The first trade fair of the year is nearly upon us and I will be showing my current and new designs at Spring Top Drawer at Earls Court which starts on Sunday 15th until Tuesday 17th and my stand number is UDC18.  If you are a trade buyer do come along and place an order in time for Valentine day! 

I am just waiting for some new beads and charms to arrive that will part of yet another new range i have been working on for a while, very exciting.  I will post some images on the blog as soon as i have made up my samples, these will then be available to buy from my pages at Not On The High Street.

I am currently working on some new jewellery samples pieces for the Yorkshire Sculpture Park which will hopefully be selected to go on sale as part of the merchandise for the Joan Miro exhibition which starts sometime in March this year.

Until I blog again, goodbye for now.
