Pink Garden & Perlina

The blog of a 20 something London lady who enjoys fiddling about with web sites and stringing glass beads together to make unique pieces of jewellery

Perlina Handmade October Update

-

2nd November, 2008

Pink Garden is a web site that I have had for over 4 years. But it only occurred to me the other day to use it to blog about updates for my own handmade jewellery [found at www.perlina.co.uk]. Quick off the mark, aren’t I?

Visitors who subscribe to the Perlina newsletter need not worry as nothing has changed. I have just moved the Perlina news blog over to my personal one so that I only have to maintain one blog instead of both Smile

Newest Additions

Candy Girl Bracelet Oval Storm Necklace Earth Angel Earrings
Lilac Dream Pearl Necklace Crystal Seas Bracelet Bubblegum Porcelain Earrings

These are the newest additions to the Perlina Handmade Jewellery site. I recently took a week off work which gave me the opportunity to go completely mad and just make, make, make! All I need to do is get them photographed and cleaned up, ready for the web site. Many items will be added over the coming weeks so check back often or you might miss something.

Downloadable Catalogue

One last thing. Due to popular demand I’m currently working on a downloadable, simplified catalogue which visitors will be able to print out and email to friends and family.

Perlina Handmade September Update

-

19th September, 2008

New site design and update! It has taken me over a month to complete due to various reasons beyond my control =D but the newer, more sleeker jewellery site has finally gone live. I’ve been working in the background on a whole new look and have performed some much needed tweaking which hopefully makes the site much easier to use. Some of the new features include the ability to bookmark items and a currency converter for international customers.

Previous visitors will also notice an improvement with the jewellery pictures. I wasn’t happy with the quality or the greyish backgrounds of the other ones so I invested in some photography equipment and away I went (with the help of my beloved best friend Gaz, who I owe a humongous thank you to). This has also been consuming all my time (the picture taking that is, not Gaz =D) but it has definitely been worth it.

After all the madness, I still managed to make some new pieces. These are the newest additions to the Perlina Handmade Jewellery site. I have a few more to list but I’m currently working on the images for them, they will be added over the next few weeks.
