Many of you that have not seen our Face book page (Beadoir Jewellery and Beadoir London) have asked to see the winner of our Kids Jewellery competition we held. 

The winner was Tabither Galliers pictured here wearing the winning necklace design, along with pictures of her winning design. :

Congratulations to Tabitha and all the other competition winners.

And a big thank you to everyone who entered.

Schools out... Woooohooooooo for the kids! However as we can see the English weather is not holding up very well this year! So when it's pouring down with rain and you can't chuck the kids in the garden what are you going to do?

Well why not treat them to a BEADOIR bead kit before they get under your feet and you start climbing the walls ;-) !  They can get crafty and entertain themselves making some snazzy jewellery, key rings, book marks etc. Bead kits are a great way to keep the kids not only occupied but nice and quiet too ;-). You can pick from one of our many bead kits at www.beadkit.co.uk or we can always come to you and keep them busy beading for as long as you want to book us for [email protected] 

kids and Mums and dads and chums can also do some beading in our Greenwich London shop, 12b Turnpin lane, SE10 9JA

Your can always email us with any questions [email protected]

These acrylic summer necklaces and bracelets are by far the most popular this summer. The quirky wrap around bracelet and chunky statement necklace just scream 'Summer time' choose from the ever so popular array of tropical summer colours or peaceful greens or maybe some popping purples!  Everyday is summer when your wearing one of these. One fabulous lady Julia Dunnit with an outstanding eye for arts and crafts describes them as "fools Sunshine", truly fabulous! Julia is so pleased she posted them on her blog page! Check it out :-) She wears the jewellery so well and its so nice when you see someone wear a design that matches them so perfectly. 

If you fancy a set of these chunky jewels for your jewellery box then you can find them on the necklace and the bracelet pages of this website. I like to make jewellery that is afordable for everyone to enjoy so you can pick this necklace up for just £10 and the bracelet £12! an awesome bargain for such a funky design :-)

On Saturday 2nd April we are running a jewellery making workshop in Greenwich Market, London. Anyyone can join in and make beaded jewellery and other items. Mums, dads, brother sisters! Everyone can have a go. Costs start from as little as £2 for a phone charm and £5 (at the highest) for a necklace. You can also make keyrings, bookmarks, bracelets and earrings. Other craft activities are also available on the day.

Greenwich market is filled with stalls selling hand made items from jewellery to home wares. This is the place to find perfect gifts and unique handicrafts. It really is the best market in London! For more informations drop us an email [email protected]

Beadoir will also be running workshops for mums and kids in the school holidays on Wednesdays and Fridays.

The wedding season is approaching and Beadoir has a fab way to entertain the guests.

It adds that little extra to your big day and leaves your guests talking for weeks after! Its a sure hit for little guests and adults love it too.We tailor each bar individually to suit your wedding be it with colours or themes to ensure we blend in well what ever your taste is we will meet your requirements.

One of my favourite weddings last year had to be a vintage style wedding ( see below), absolutely stunning, and the fun you can have with vintage colours and styles is just fantastic when it comes to beading!
