I got a copy of the new Rio Magazine posted to me the other day by Susan at FCA&C. She’s kindly used an image of one of my brooches to advice their online shop. I was chuffed to bits when I saw it – it was such a surprise to see something I’d made in print. I’d never heard of the magazine and I’m really glad I’ve been introduced to it.
It’s full of tons of information on what’s happening with regards to design, craft, style and events for the next few months in Scotland and has made me aware of a few things that I would’ve missed – like the degree shows on at the moment, especially the jewellery ones. I’m off up to see the Dundee show on Saturday now and can’t wait.
Here’s the image of my brooch that I was telling you about… doesn’t it look lovely!
Another reason I wanted to mention this magazine is that a lot of people have been commenting on my latest range of antique silver rings made from teaspoons and my new button bracelets – these are all now in stock at Concrete Wardrobe in Edinburgh. If you get your hands on a copy of the magazine, or visit the Rio Magazine website and ‘join’ then you’ll get a RioPlus card that will entitle you to a range of offers throughout the year – during May and June for instance, you can get a 10% discount on any purchase at Concrete Wardrobe.
