Snapdragon Beads


As you can see from the picture, Snapdragon Beads are most definately stylish! The creator of these beautiful pieces is Alice and she really puts her heart into her work. Alice's sweet shop sells earrings, pins and pendants in stunning colourways. Take a look here for her handmade items.

Colour Spectacular!

Our Corandr Express VIP at the moment is Debbs Elliman. Not only is this one of the most colourful shops at Coriandr it is also one of the well stocked. Debbs says "I kiln fuse my own dichroic glass for pendants, earrings and cufflinks etc.. I also make bracelets and earrings and I decorate jute and tote bags". I dont have a favourite as I just love ALL things beady and sparkly so below I have added some pictures of Debbs handmade work.

You can also read here a review of Debb Ellimans shop, very much worth a look!

Meet Christine

Today on the coriandr express we have a very colourful VIP! She goes by the name of Kitty Ballistic and has a store full of quirky goodies sure to put a smile on your face!




Christine is Marlon's (see kitty's shop banner) younger sister. She might be a slip of a thing, but she has hidden depths. She doesn't like giddy people, and gets vexed when people make fun of the fact that her name rhymes. She longs to move to the U.S. or New Zealand, where this isn't a problem.*Christine is handsewn in felt, and lovingly stuffed with polyfill. Her determined gaze is thanks to safety eyes, but she is not intended to be used as a children's toy (but that's more to do with her personality/lifestyle than anything else). Christine is just over 4 inches (10cm) tall, and would ideally suit someone who enjoys reading or working at a computer whilst being watched by a small, intense felt vegetable. :-)



Below is a little gallery of some of Kitty's fantastic handmade items. As you know im a lover of all things beaded and her jewellery items are second to none with great colour and talent. Check out her shop for truly amazing bargain!

Listing frenzy

I have got so much jewellery made and have tried to have a blitz listing them today. My Coriandr shop is looking a little better for it but I still have lots to list!

Coriandr is a fantastic place to buy and sell handmade crafts where there are hundreds of amazings items for sale. I am taking part of the Coriandr express that is a train full of people helping each other to promote their craft, the coraindr site and the amazing handmade goods on offer. Our friend in the VIP carriage is Kev of Dig the earth and his cards are not only colourful, quirky and fresh but are eco-friendly too!
