This is my first blog - aghhhh! So please bear with me. This is basically going to introduce you all to myself, my company and my day to day life. I'll include ALL sorts of things, some very interesting and some might be very boring! Well hi. I'm Sophie, mother to Harrison (HP), 3 in February and wife to Warren.
The start of Purple Sorbet - well it all started by chance! After having Harrison I spent two mornings a week working for my husbands letting agents in Northampton and since Harrison was getting older I felt I needed something to do with my time. My mum, since she had retired when i had HP, had been keeping herself busy with the odd jewellery making course down at her local Colemans and had made herself some very pretty items of jewellery. One day last May I asked her to make me a Thomas Sabo style black crystal bracelet since I hadn't got anything similar and there was no point paying £30 + when my mum could make me one! The week after I had a few girlfriends round on a saturday night for a few drinky's in the garden and my bracelet caught the attention of them all. I quickly picked up the basics and we were soon getting quite a few requests from friends and friends of friends for birthday presents etc And so Purple Sorbet was born!
Sophie and Pamela, the P and S in our name, together we wanted to create jewellery which was simple, classic and affordable. Together we hope that we bridge the generation gaps and produce something for girls and ladies of all ages. We are slowly introducing ourselves to Northampton, at local craft fairs, school fetes and a ladies lunch in May!
Anyway we are on twitter @Purple_sorbet, on facebook Purple Sorbet Handmade Jewellery and our website is Purple Sorbet and we have our sale on until the 10th February!
I'll update this as much as I possibly can! Hope you enjoy what I write about and review and of course all my other day to day runnings around!
lots of love
Sophie xx
