Made in Scotland ... with love

My newest treasury is all about items made in Scotland & by members of the team McEtsy. To find items by this team, simply type 'mcetsy' in the search on Etsy or check out our thread in the Forums>Teams. I'm really happy to see the number of creative people from Scotland being represented on Etsy increasing & hope they all do well!

After long, long months......

....my new-look website is finally, almost, here! Well, it will be fully developed/filled-in in about a week or so. In the meantime, you can already order from it, register to review products, buy in UK £Sterling. & just in case you're more comfortable with Euros, US or Canadian Dollars - simply choose your currency from the drop down menu & it will show you how much it is in your currency.

Postage is only £2 per order for both international and domestic orders & I ship to all major countries in Europe, plus USA, Canada, Australia etc. Shop policies can currently be found here: http://www.etsy.com/shop_policy.php?user_id=5512653

& it won't be just jewellery that I will be selling here - all my destash will be listed & all my handcrafted copper/silver findings too, so, if you're interested in making jewellery yourself, have a look - you might find something interesting!

Here's a snap of my new shop:

Fascination with Perfection


The perfection in an item crafted by hand comes not from exact repetition of given form as in items made by machines, but from something much more subtle and hard to describe. Yet, when that perfection is achieved, you can see it clearly. For me, the items in this treasury are simply perfect!
