I'm a fan....

...of the gorgeous earrings I bought from minnette vs. corey at the Bowerbird Bazaar.

Minnette & Corey are Adelaide based jewellers, who design & make a gorgeous range of sterling silver jewellery - these fan earrings are one of Corey's designs.

They're lovely & light & hang beautifully - I'm really enjoying wearing them. Minnette was one of my teachers for the silversmithing course I attended last year, so it was lovely to see her again too.

You can get your own pair of fans on their website. Or perhaps some buttons, or a little sparrow, or one of their other gorgeous creations...

Bowerbird Bazaar

On Sunday Mum & I spent a couple of hours wandering around the Bowerbird Bazaar, at the Adelaide Showground. I even remembered the camera this year. Not that I took lots of photos - too crowded for one thing, not to mention too busy looking at all the gorgeous goodies on offer.

As well as all the wonderful jewellery, ceramics, clothes, art, accessories, homewares etc (there are some seriously clever & creative people out there), I loved the fairy lights, florals on the tables & the big blackboard wall.

Bowerbird Bazaar { part 1 }

We had a wonderful time at the Bowerbird Bazaar on Saturday. There was so much gorgeousness to look at, lots of friendly people & very good coffee & cake. I did treat myself to a few goodies (a post on them soonish), but there were lots & lots of things I would have liked to bring home.

Between us we picked up a fair number of business cards & I love the fact that so many of them are so different & creative.

Oh, & if you're wondering why there are only photos of business cards, rather than the of bazaar - we neglected to take the camera in with us. Also, we were too busy enjoying looking around to think of taking photos. & they are a rather nice bunch of cards :)

If you're interested, there are some photos on the Bowerbird facebook page.
