After a bit of a break, I’m back!

Posted on 1st October 201724th September 2018 by swanny

I’ve taken a few months break and there are a million reasons as to why this is, so no blog post could possibly explain. It’s been a very hard few months and the Summer holidays have been hectic. So, rather than go over old news, I’m going to take the opportunity to start fresh and try and work on things that can make me a better and happier person.

The biggest, most positive news I have to tell after my break, is that I have started up my jewellery business, Swanny & Boo, again. I’ve tried out various things to keep me busy and earn me some pocket money, but nothing gives me more joy than making beautiful jewellery that means something to someone. This time round, I’m not just doing stamped pieces, I’ve expanded into the stone setting side of things and I have some beautiful pieces that I don’t really want to part with! But, to get the name out there more, I’ve opened an Etsy shop as well as my own website. It’s going to be a hard graft, but with the right amount of effort, I think I could have a good Christmas order list.

As a lot of you know, my background is social and digital media and over the past few months I’ve been really pushing my profile and started taking on ambassadorships. Those of you who follow me on Twitter and Instagram will see my beautiful Ju Ju Be bags. I was over the moon to be named the Content Creator for Europe and I’ve met some lovely people along the way! There have been so many exciting launches and one of the most exciting is still to come – World of Warcraft! Please make sure you’re following me on Instagram and Twitter to see the latest styles before they’re released!

Who else have I been working with?

Other ambassadorships/ Design Teams and PR Teams include: Tea Tourist Subscription Box, Mama Makes Stamps, Thompson Craft Supplies, The Punk Planner Stationery Shop, Savy Moo Designs, Three Little Buhos, Sticky Acorn, Glam & Co Gift Shop and today I got the amazing news that I’ve been accepted onto another stamp company I love, Skull and Cross Buns! It’s been a super busy time, but I really couldn’t be happier at the moment. If you are a company and would like more info on working with me, please click the ‘About Me’ tab and navigate to the ‘work with me link and download my media pack for more information.

      Your designs look beautiful! Can we put any message on the Personalised Hand Stamped necklace? (found you from Hermione’s FB feed!)
