Pretty Pocket Watch Necklaces & Tasty Treats!





We've been making some gorgeous new pocket watch necklaces this last week or so, just in time for the spring. My favourite one features a large vintage cream coloured plastic rose. All the watches open up to reveal the watch face inside, making them practical and beautiful! They come on a nice strong 24 inch long gold plated chain.



Or maybe you prefer something a bit tastier? Then check out these tea time treats, realistic biscuit necklaces! How amazing are these, quirky and eye catching, they are sure to get you noticed!

Our Love of Winehouse!





On Saturday 27th the Sun featured our Amy Winehouse style Cameo Necklace on their "Live It" fashion pages...this made us super happy!

We love Amy here at Hannah Makes Things and designed the necklace as part of our new collection that came out last month. I get loads of people asking for cameos in the shop in Manchester and they are such a classic item in the world of jewellery I wanted to put a fresh twist on the traditional cameo, while paying homage to our favourite bad girl songstress. I do believe she sings some of the best tunes ever (IMHO!) and we keep her albums pretty much glued in the CD player here at jewellery HQ. We also made another Amy inspired necklace, inscribed with the slogan "What would Winehouse do?" (a question I often ask myself in times of indecision or disaster!)

Amy's songs have got us through good times and bad times, helped us pack many an order and seen us through epic work-a-thons (preparing for last years clothes show live to name but one!)...So here's to you Amy, we think you are ace, and if you are ever in Manchester please drop in and say hello!
