I think this is such a good idea I have sooooooooo many pairs of earrings and I never know what to do with them so they end up getting lost or broken!!! This would solve all my earring problems :-)

Welcome to the quirly world of Franziska Venrath jewellery.

Franziska handmakes each silver ring to perfectly fit an array of quirky childrens toys to create unique and entertaining pieces of jewellery which I love :-).

We have a jeweller in my shop - Franny & Filer that also uses a similar technique so if you love these check out Pure Brass Neck's page on our shops website -  http://www.frannyandfiler.com/purebrassneck.htm as Im sure will also love her work!!!

Ive just been browsing the internet and saw this pic that really made me chuckle :-) What do u think?

While your take a look at one of my old favourites of theirs Drops of Jupiter.

Whoop Whoop another win for Wigan Warriors :-)

Even though I got completely soaked and now Im getting a cold from standing in the pouring rain at Wakefield it was certainly worth it, to see the Win. 

I also had the pleasure if you can call it that of getting to stand next to Ben Westwood of the Warrington Wolves, ????

Another fab shop that stocks my jewellery is Eliza Maccabe handbags located at - 507 Liverpool Rd, Peel Green, Eccles, Manchester, M30 7LZ.

Eliza Maccabe is the pseudonym a very good friend of mine Diane ogden works under to design and make a variety of beautiful bespoke handbags (I have several :-) as I love them).

The shop is filled with quirky vintage furniture, set out like a traditional living room giving a familiar feel to the shop and making you feel at home as soom as you walk through the door, its the perfect environment to be in to buy yourselves a unique fashionable handbag or fun piece of my jewellery.

Check it out and let me know what you think , Im sure you will find somthing to buy.

I have always loved Bakelite jewellery and its been a big inspiration within my jewellery over the years. I love the combinations of bold bright colours and quirky designs. My favourite pieces have to be the bangles and I would love to have a stack of the beautiful examples below to wear and show off!!

Ive fallen in love with a pair of shoes by Raphael Young. They are stunning heels named "Eagle One A" in black and gold - if only I could win the lottery to buy them :-?

You can see more stunning architectural shoe designs by Rapael @ http://www.raphaelyoung.com/raphael.html

I really like this unusual jewellery made by Italian jeweller Maria Christina Bellucci. Its all made up from silver combined with coloured pencils and I think it gives a fab effect.

        Imagine brushing your teeth and washing your hands in this quirky fish tank sink :-) I love it !!!!
