Beautiful Handmade Statement Necklaces and other Fabulousness from Neena Shilvock - Inspirations and Designs From the Week Gone by

An Orgy of Earrings

Christmas promotion at Caprilicious Jewellery November 2016
Hello folks, thanks for joining me this week. The nights are drawing in and I'm dreading the start of winter where it is dark when you get in the car to leave home, and dark when you get back to it at the end of a day's work. If it weren't for Christmas and all the associated festivity, it would be an intolerable time of the year.
Slimming World at Caprilicious
In fact Christmas has come early to Nuneaton - at the Slimming World Class I attend the consultant threw a taster session and we all took in Slimming World compatible festive food, shared recipes, and dressed up for the occasion. The lady in the Christmas hat is Cathy Lee, the Slimming World consultant from Nuneaton who works hard and tirelessly with the ladies of Nuneaton to help us loose weight.

Here she is when she isn't dressed inappropriately - she's on a cruise, and wearing Caprilicious to boot! She has a lovely, bubbly, endearing personality and is very popular with her groups.

I've been getting ready for my stall at the Family Fun Day in 10 days time, and made loads and loads of earrings (could that be a frenzy/orgy of earrings?).
​ I have another stall in early November and then of course there's Christmas and gifts I will need to make so they will come in useful somewhere. Of course, at Caprilicious I don't do things by halves. I try to use hand made components, and I like to make said components myself.
I made the components with polymer clay, paint, resin and added semi precious beads, pearls, crystals and Czech glass flowers. The polymer clay shapes were made over a weekend, and then each subsequent step took a couple of days. I think they are rather pretty, though I say so myself.

The last two were made using Jewellery Beetle wings - they are perfect for Christmas parties - I have a couple of necklaces I made earlier that I will take to the stall at the Christmas fair in November, everyone loves a bit of Bling! at Christmas.

To join in the festivities, Caprilicious will be running a daily Treasure Hunt from the 31st of October to the 6th of November. I will place a coupon every day among the pieces of jewellery in the 'Treasury of Statement Necklaces' - each coupon will be valid for one day only and can be used to redeem 15% off any purchases made from Caprilicious on the day. So hurry up and get your gifts and stock up on Bling for that office party.

     I'm Neena Shilvock,  and I'm crazily addicted to jewellery. I've been designing and making quirky and interesting statement necklaces for the last eight years and my passion hasn't cooled off one little bit - in fact it has got worse, such that I'm even dreaming jewellery.
    I'd love to get to know kindred spirits like you, so drop me a line and I'll get back to you, and who knows, this could be the start of a beautiful friendship. Write to me at jewellerybycaprilicious(at)gmail.com

About us

I am very proud of my body of work and what people say about it, here are some of the compliments I have received 

'Neena, the necklace has just arrived & I can't find enough of the right words to do it justice. Somehow "stunning" "gorgeous" "exquisite" don't seem to fit the bill! It's definitely a statement piece ..................'                 LJ

'Wow received my jewellery to day. Love them, so beautifully presented in a pretty green box and many thanks for gift of earrings, lovely, 
thanks :-)'         AT
 
 'Hi Neena, just been busy all week at a folk festival.....my Mme Butterfly drew lots of admiration, as did my Ice Queen and someone leaned over the counter in a store of healing and crystals and exclaimed at my beautiful lapis. I so enjoy wearing my pieces and the attention they receive. '          LB
 
 ' Neena, I can't describe how delighted I am with Scherezade - she is simply breathtaking.'  EW
