Ruby Olive





We're testing some selections of Ruby Olive designer jewellery which we're hoping to stock if they meet our criteria for toughness, durability, etc.

They're very bright lovely necklaces and rings and are designed by Australian, Skye Anderton, and named after her Grandma. We're only able to stock a few which meet our criteria but these few are so different to our usual designs that we're very pleased.

We love the designs and we like the family inspiration. Cross fingers they pass testing! It's exciting to find an Australian designer that we can add to our collection and offer our customers a greater range of quality 'tough' designs. We're keeping our eye out for other Australian designers so let us know if you know of any that could meet our criteria.

We're still working in the Autumn collection which will be released in mid March and features pinks, browns, translucents, and beige colours along with pearls, crystals and acrylics. We're excited!!!

Amber beads running out the door - and Bianca is going nowhere!


I just love it when Bianca tries to leave at the end of her day.

If my girls find out they make it very clear to her they want her to stay. Check out the picture of Bella hanging off her leg!! Doesn't the Blue ice ribbon necklace look gorgeous on Bianca?

In regards to running out the door we've had a very popular run on amber necklaces and we're about a week behind in manufacturing. It must be grumpy baby teething season..... The teething necklaces are great for the majority of babies due to the natural healthy paracetemol like oils that seep into the skin and sooth cranky little ones - and all scientifically validated! We have quite a few chemists that stock them now.

Superbly on Sale


If you have a look at the website you'll see we've put some discontinued kukui seed stock up for sale. These were really popular necklaces but we've only got about 10-15 left of each and we now don't use kukui seeds as beads.

Why not?

Simply because they aren't as durable as the acrylic or crystals. They only cope with a limited amount of baby drool whereas the plastics and crystals can withstand lots of drool. They're still tug proof!!

Grab one while they're at the bargain price of only $8.42 each!
