    Precious I like it too. The only thing I would sat about the special offer is that you have a zero and an O next to each other in the code. Its obvious if you stop and think about it but to people not really stopping to think the may put two zeros or 2 Os and not get the discount. Just wondering if you could choose a different code that may be clearer.
    Or maybe thats just me.
    Looks lovely and easy to navigate.

    Babymoo - good idea about the models and photgraphers! If you have a local college with a photography course then students would love the opportunity (that was me once!!!)

    Jo - Fantastic about the trial day! Well Done you!!
    Oh and Munchki thats meant to be BIG hugs not Bug hugs!!! :)

    The reason I have suggested Mabel sends samples to the wedding magazines is so they get to see the quality of her work - photos can hide a multiple of sins and as she in an unknown (not to us obviously!) they can be cautious about writing copy until they know it is good.

    Magazines like to take there own photographs for there articles, hence the samples!!

    Mabel I think they need to be strong pieces - and ones that show your style and flair (and yes you do have that!!!!) I know this means that you probably need to use a more expensive piece so we should just do one magazine and one piece for now - it would still cost you the same overall but might make a stronger statement. Basically we want someone, hopefully the Editor!, to go 'WOW!' and then go and look at your website to see what else you can offer and then write lots of nice things about you!! We can ask to get the item back, but wouldn't bank on it.

    Try looking at it this way:

    If money wasn't an issue which is your favourite piece? Which one saysthe most about you and your style and inspiration? Which piece are you most proud of? (I am hoping you have one piece that fits all those questions, if so, then I think that should be the one you send!)

    Remember this is an investment, with all investments there is a risk but I will be doing my best to help this be minimised! Don't doubt yourself - I believe in you!! (as do lots of others on here!!!!!)

    Got to go!! Don't dribble to much folks I won't have chance to catch up till sometime tomorrow!!!

    xx

    Thanks Nixi :-) yeah that sounds good- one mag one big piece. The showpiece is usually the Forever Necklace ? Any ideas on this anyone? ( last question for today promise!)
    Which piece from my site would you choose to represent my work?

    MM which is your favourite piece? I love the dewdrop necklace. I love the forever necklace aswell, I would personally choose something that would look the part on any traditional bride but also something that shows your imagination and as someone has said your flare. All your jewellery is simply stunning so i think whatever you choose will be a winner :)

    ETA: Just seen your starlight necklace and it is now my definate favourite! :)
