    what am I the ring leader of???!!!

    Just had idea, one wedding shop I deal with is quite slow sales at the mo, thinking of doing a few cheaper sets of pendant and earrings in silver plate instead of my usual sterling silver- what do you lot think? Would be more costume jewellery instead of stuff to keep.

    should add that they already sell costume jewellery sets so could steal that part of the sales while people are cutting back!

    Do you have to make before you sell? Or are you supplying a sample? If a sample go for it you really have nothing to lose, as the only difference would be the cost

    they do it on sale or return, would only have to make one set of each initially, might ring manager tomorrow and run idea past her, she's really nice.

    Morning Jen,

    How are you feeling today? better i hope.

    Sounds like a good shop there Jen, when i first read it i thought it said you spent 330 on shoes, but i'm guessing that was meant to be £30 on shoes. I would love to spend £330 on shoes, i do like my shoes. I really like this pair i saw on the jimmychoo website, but for £290, i will stop dreaming. They were gorgeous though.

    Up early, off into town in a bit, want to aim to get there for around 9.30 to beat the crowds. Hopefully get all my shopping done before everybody comes out. I'm sure everybody will be rising early today, just my luck!

    Whats everybody elses plans?

    xx
