Purple Passion Gifts for Your Mum this Mother's Day

Welcome to ZaniL Design - Purple Passion is the Theme for this month.

Mother's day is fast approaching and if you haven't already found a special gift, then I am sure ZaniL Design will be able to help.

We at ZaniL Design love to create beautiful handmade jewellery that will make you feel individual and special. All our jewellery is uniquely hand crafted using the highest quality of materials and workmanship. We pride ourselves in being able to offer high quality handmade items that provide a solution to your gift needs as well as your personal requirements.

This month we have made lots of new designs with a special emphasis on

the colour Purple. Purple represents royality and wealth. This URL has more information :http://crystal-cure.com/purple.html. A direct quote from this URL says that if you surround yourself with purple then you will have peace of mind. Purple is also assocsiated with imagination and inspiration. This is great news as this is my favourite colour and as an artist I just love to work with it. I do feel happier and more confident when wearing purple.

I love it so much that I have bought another beautiful purple formal dress as we are attending a wedding. I know I will wear this dress to death and it goes with so many of my designs.

ZaniL Design Purple Passion Range- Earrings

ZaniL Design Purple Passion - Just in time for Mother's Day.


Welcome again, I hope you are blessed with good health and happiness.

Are you passionate about purple???. Well at ZaniL Design we are and we have made some beautiful pieces that are sure to make you feel Royal and special now and in future. Did you know that the colour purple was once only worn by royal families?

Ancient purple dye was called Tyrian purple and was made in Tyre. Purple dyes were rare and expensive and only the rich and Royality were able to afford them. The reason for this was due to the fact the the dye was made from various marine mollusks , mostly Murex and they need to crush so many of them as many as 12000, just to make a small amount thus made it expensive and possibly drove the species to near extinction. It was once worth more than gold itself, due to the laborious task to produce.

These days Purple is made from artifical dyes

Here is a link to read more about Purple .

We are also made about Peacock colour combination. Purple for ZaniL Design is one of the main colours used in our designs. Purple always comes back in fashion every couple of years. I just feel do good in purple and it just brightens up my day.

ZaniL Design -April 2009 News

Welcome to ZaniL Design Elegant handmade Jewellery


First of all a great big thank you for supporting local artists and buying Australian Handmade. It really does help and since I have been in this business I have changed the way I shop, preferring to support small business people like my self. I get a good feeling that I am helping the local economy is a small but crucial way. So thank you again.

Across are pictures of a customers recent wedding. I made the wedding jewellery in these pictures.
Thank you to Anna ( bride) who allowed me to use these photo's on my blog.

When looking at these photos click on them to enlarge them.

This month I have written 5 posts and they are below. At a glance they are

• New item page- Sterling silver Alphabet bracelets
• Specials page to give you some bargains to make gift giving affordable and special
• mother's day Necklace Ideas
• Mothers Day Earring ideas ( 18 new pairs)
• Gardening ( new section) -Growing for health and flavour.
  

I do hope you will enjoy reading these and get some inspiration and please comment if you have anything at all to say. I always like to put some thought provoking ideas into my blog so today I am going to write about the benefits of buying handmade.

Why buy handmade?

Sometimes a handmade item is more expensive and yes it would be cheaper if you made it yourself. An hand made item is a tangible object , but if we take an something intangible for example like the skill of a lawyer we can perhaps compare what we are actually paying for when we buy an hand made item.

A lawyer is skilled in the area of legislation of the courts and will have acquired this knowledge after years of study. When we are in need of a lawyer it would be cheaper to defend our selves if we had the time to learn the appropriate legislation, but we do not have the time to learn all the in's and outs of what is really needed so in effect we are paying for time, as we could all acquire knowledge.

When buying a handmade item you are buying a unique item filled will creativity and quality workman ship as well as the time you have saved in not making it your self. You are also buying an item made with love as well as the skill the artist has aquired through years of perfecting their art.

So that sums it up really and you probably knew that already.

I have found a great little poem that will strengthen your resolve especially if you are doing it tough in business or another part of your life. Here it is .

Don't Quit

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,

When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,

when the funds are low and the debts are high,

Any you want to smile but you have to sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit,

Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

For life is queer with its twists and turns,

As every one of us sometimes learns,

and many a failure turns about,

when he might have won if he'd stuck it out.

Success is just failure inside out,

The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.

And you never can tell how close you are,

It may be near when it seems so far.

so Stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,

It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

Cheers everyone.

best regards always
