about

Hi! I'm Lotts, welcome to my blog.

I have a real passion for jewellery making. I believe there are far too many mass produced items around, I love to share ways of creating your own accessories or personalising simple shop bought pieces into something really special and unique to you.

I studied at London College of Fashion and whilst I no longer work in the fashion industry, my love of style, beautiful fabrics and jewels influences all I do. You might not have the budget (I certainly don't) to buy expensive clothing but I can help make your £10 dress look amazing by making an awesome pair of earrings or a show-stopping necklace.

I'm a regular contributor to other websites including Craft tuts+ and Love My Dress.

I'm so excited to have you visit, here are some of my favourite posts to get you started, happy making!

If you have any questions I'd be delighted to hear from you, contact me here

  1. My name is Christine, and I'm the Managing Editor for Jewelry Affaire, a magazine that showcases handmade jewelry! I would love to talk to you about getting some of your pieces into one of our upcoming publications. I've been perusing your site, and I really think the attached piece could be a great fit in our magazine:

    Would you be interested in pursuing this option with us?

    If you're interested, I'd be happy to answer any questions or further explain the process at cstephens@stampington.com. I hope to hear from you soon.

    Best,

  2. Hey Charlotte,

    Not sure if you had my previous comments, Claire (living London blog) suggested your name to me, could we discuss further regarding an upcycling project. My name is Dorothee and I am in charge of blogger relation for Gumtree. That would be great if you could drop me a line, thank you

  4. Hi,
    I’m Janine recent opener of Vivid Yarns online wool shop.

    Could I interest you in being featured on my blog, Joy & Crafter? A blog to encourage people in a rut or not feeling too good about themselves to try something new.

    I’m looking for interesting creatives to contribute. I’d like the first crafters featured to offer a very basic introduction (tutorial, photo tutorial or video), to their craft.
    Something you have already made, could be effective or updated.

    Any participants will have a link to their, shop, website or blog included and I imagine that whoever does the beginners basic tutorial page will be permanently featured or at the very least I’d hope so (but not sure how that will work yet).

    Joy & Crafter goes live 30th May 2015, so, if you are interested in that get back to me asap.
    Otherwise drop me a message about doing something in the future.

    Email: joyandcrafter@gmail.com

    Twitter: @vividyarns or @joyandcrater

    Kind regards,
    Janine

  5. Good morning,

    I hope you're well.

    My courier service client is looking to participate with five ultra-craft bloggers to see if they ave what it takes to create something new and exciting... out of a cardboard box.

    Whether from make-up boxes, house accessories to useful gadgets for the home, it's your choice!

    As an intensive, we will be offering each blogger a £50 Hobby Craft voucher for you participation!

    In addition to this, if you could let us know your unique idea before posting - that would be great!

    Any questions,

    Just let me know!

    Thanks,

    Hayley

  7. Hello, I purchase the Mollie makes magazine with your editorial for the gold craft kit which included gold faux leather. I'm just wondering if you can direct me as to where I can purchase more of this leather from? Thanks

  8. Hi!

    I've just seen your site and wondered if you'd like to look at my creative blog. I'm a 62 year old artist and writer and renaissance soul and I've recovered from depression and anxiety after 30 years. I'm now making up for lost time. I'm hoping to reach as many people in this situation as possible to give them hope and perhaps some enjoyment.
