new designers!

This week I've had 2 brand new designers pop over to the studio and drop off collections for Hannah Zakari.

I'm not going to say too much about either and instead just show you a few pictures of items from each collection. One is a range of clothing made with vintage fabrics and the other is a stunning range of sterling and pearl jewellery. Each is beautifully crafted and perfectly unique and I am sure you will love them as much as I do...



cutest new stuff!

Waiting to go on the site right now are some beautiful items from new designers and some of my current favourite designers on HZ. Here's some quick sneaks of new stuff from designers already available on the site...

New cards from Cracked Designs check out the inside of the oven card - fabulous!


And here's a pile of beautiful flowers from Laurafallulah, I love the colours - so summery and bright...

All will be available next week :)

What I'm working on...

Okay, so it would be hard to miss the fact that I am pretty terrible at blogging, but you can expect a small flurry of posts this morning starting with some wee photos of the jewels I've been working on myself.

I've definitely found that moving into the studio has helped me to organise my time better and I've been able to start working on my own line again which is making me very happy. The past few weeks I've been working on jewellery and soon I'll get on to the bags again.

Firstly are the pieces I've most enjoyed making and I hope to develop this line even further. They are made with loads of beads and charms very carefully arranged and threaded and I think it creates a really unique look - there definitely won't ever be 2 exactly the same (even each earring turns out a bit different I find). Here's a necklace I've just finished...

I've also been doing more with precious stones and these earrings are made with beautiful aqua Chalcedony stones, as smooth as they come:

Here's another necklace I've been working on, very simple and super delicate, made with beautiful tiny silver sapphires:

And finally, here's some fun bracelets I've been making with Swarovski beads and skulls I got on my last trip to Japan. I have to say, I'm not sure the cream one will make it to the site, I only have enough beads for one and I love it soooooooo much!
