2012 verdicts so far!
Dear Hairy Growler,
My package came today. I opened it with great excitement and I LOVE EVERYTHING!! Everything is perfect. Here I am wearing the lock and key earrings and my bangle (which fits wonderfully). You know what I liked also? The fact that you had thought to put an extra sticker in the envelope. I of course opened the daffodil brooch box and then remembered It will be a present, so was so grateful for the extra sticker to seal up the box again! I will most definately be ordering more items from you in the near future because I think your jewellery is so beautiful and unique and magically has just that special something about it!
Kindest regards,
Piera - a very chuffed customer (Luxembourg)

Hiya Les
thank you for your e-mail.
I am hooked on your site! I absolutely love everything and my weird passion is sixpences. (My daughter has always thought I'm mad because I love them). I want loads of stuff and it's my birthday in May so ive e-mailed my family your site details and threatened not to cook if I dont get anything :0) I hope to commission something for my bridesmaids in the next 4 months
as well so I will let you know what ideas I have in the very near
future. You have an amazing talent and I'm so glad I found your site. Got you on facebook too. :0) Looking forward to showing off my beautiful jewellery.
Kind regards

Hi,
Thank you so much for the wonderful wedding knife,we are all the moon with it and can't wait to have it placed next to the grand cake for it to be used for its first cut!
I will send you a photo of the happy couple holding their knife for you to if you wish to use in your album,do feel free to use it on on your web page,I think it will make a lovely addition to the many wonderful samples you have already.
I am so pleased I found your site and even more pleased that I saved hard for it,it really is a family treasure to start many happy cake cutting celebrations in the years a head
Is there any any chance I could have a written receipt for the knife as they want to get it insured separately on their house insurance,do please send to my address and I will pass on.
Thank you yet again for your patience and skill when making their knife and especially to listening to our requirements,it really is perfect!!
Thank you thank you thank you!!
One proud mother to be be with the best unique wedding gift ever.

Hi Les,
My exquisite tree and earrings arrived bright and early this morning and i'm absolutely thrilled to bits with them (as I knew I would be!)
Not only is the tree every bit as gorgeous as I expected but you managed to put not only one, but two wee birdies in!
I've worn the tree and earrings ( which are just perfect and will go with everything ) all day and have received lots of compliments already. I shall keep the coin from which it was made with the one from the little fox you made.
Your jewellery really is fabulous Les, you're so very clever to be able to create such lovely things. Thank you so much for making exactly what I was hoping for, i'll be keeping my eye on your website and blog for more treasures too.....i'm hooked!
Yours very happily,
Heather Guy - Derbyshire

Thank you so much again, I'll recommend you to everyone I know.
Kindest Regards

Hi Les,
I received the brooch today. It's very lovely indeed - and I liked the cutlery confetti in the packaging, too. It's arrived just in the nick of time, because I'll be able to show it to everyone who contributed tomorrow, before we give it to our colleague who's leaving on Monday. I think she'll be delighted with it.
Thank you again,
Ruth Reed - in the Boarders
Hiya Les,

Thanks for all your help

Such beautiful jewellery! Am obsessed with trees and have never seen such a fantastic collection before.
Bought the 'underwater love' seahorse earrings for my mum's birthday and not only did they arrive in plenty of time to present on the day (despite my last minute ordering), but they were lovely. My mum adores them and wears them every day!
Holly Darling - England

So pleased with the farthing pendant I had made for mums 85th birthday, the coin is from the year she was born and just perfect.
Jackie Cameron - Scotland
Firstly can I say how much I love your jewellery. I can honestly say I like everything on your website. I was lucky enough to get from my Husband at Christmas a lovely fork necklace.I LOVE IT!!! It was all very personal from the forks cut out of the invoice to the drawing on the envelope.
Thanks again
I have told lots of my friends about your website.
Anne Punter - England.
I saw the beautiful fox necklace in Cambridge yesterday, fell in love with him at first sight, adopted him and brought him home. The fact that he is also made of shillings and I have been a collector of shillings for many years, just sung to me that he was supposed to be mine. Selfishly, I hope you don't make another so I can have a unique piece, but he is so beautiful it would be a shame for others not to have a chance to enjoy. Thank you from one very happy Magpie jewellery collector :-)
Angelina Gilbert- Swann - Cambridge, England.
Thank you for the gorgeous recycled fork bangle it looked amazing and even the packaging was special. I gave it to my niece for her 21st birthday and she loved it, it fitted beautifully. Everybody loved it and thought it very unusual, I even managed to impress her mother not an easy thing to do. Thank you again.
Best wishes
Alison Vaughan - Middlesex

Les.
I want to write and thank you for the beautiful pendant necklace. It arrived yesterday, and I gave it to my girlfriend today, her birthday. She couldn't have been more pleased with it, and neither could I. Thank you for making sure it got to me in time, and thank you for the way you packaged it, everything was just perfect.
I shall be sure to recommend you to everyone I know, and let them know what quality products you offer.
Regards.
Stewart - England.
Hi Les
Just to let you know that the sixpence arrived this morning and it is great, so thanks very much. I loved the attention given to the packaging too. I will make a point of wearing my earrings next time I go to the castle gallery and mention them to them. I know most of the staff quite well. Is that ok? It may lead somewhere, it may not, but think your stuff is great and should have a wider audience!
Many thanks,
Polly - Scotland
Hi les,
They are beautiful, I love them ....I have had so many comments already (especially at
my jewellery class night....they were staggered that you had hand cut them)
Thank you
Teen - London

Ruth.x - The Borders.
The only complaint I have about this site is that it is full of such beautiful items it takes me ages to go through them all, consistently changing my mind. Well done.
Kathryn Hames - Leicestershire
Hi there
Just thought I'd email you to say thanks for the fork ring it is beautiful, I was blown away by the personalisation of things. Loved the company card it is so quirky.
I pointed out to one of my colleagues at work all the little cut outs in the tissue paper with the ring and the cut out stickers off the labels appearing on the jiffy bag! You have certainly thought of everything; you have a fan club here at P&O amongst us here in accounts! So do you have many arty farty moments, where you go barmy with cutters and pens, I'm so envious?
We are quite intrigued as to, are you a young man in this type of business for the first time or a more mature male who has ventured into a new profession of recycling silver wear. Have you had any thought as to how you could use forks to create earrings yet???
Regards and thanks,
Yvonne Nobrega - Dover
Hi Les
Sorry for the late feedback but we got the necklace and it is fantastic!! My mum absolutely loves it, so im sure she will be contacting you again. Big big thankyou for changing it to suit him and also for doing it so fast, much appreciated.
Lisa :) - Kettering
I have a very lovely best friend who gave me the moon gazing hare earrings for my birthday. They are absolutely stunning and I LOVE THEM! You are clearly a creative tour de force and I am in complete awe of your craftsmanship. Really, I can hardly believe how beatiful your work is, and I have just spent about £2000 in my head looking at your website!
Very best wishes,
Caroline - England
Hi Les,
Well, all I can say is "OMG"! The bracelet is gorgeous! Amie is going to love it ... and her two sisters will be so jealous!
Thank you so much - I shall definitely be ordering from you again, with three daughters and a grandchild on the way, I shall
be studying all your wares closely for birthdays and a birth! Your birth spoons are amazing!
Warm regards and wishing you a wonderful Christmas,
Jan - Essex
Hi Les,

Hi there
I just wanted to pass my Mum's thanks onto you. You sent her the most beautiful fork bangle last week and apart from her being absolutely blown away by the bangle she was amazed (and very appreciative of) the speed of manufacture and delivery! We only ordered it on the Sunday and she received it on the Friday.
I've worn my own bangle every day now for a almost a year and every day one of my colleagues here at the Woodland Trust comments on it. I always send them the link to your website so I hope your getting more customers coming from the Trust!
Bev - Woodland Trust - Lincolnshire
A friend had on a Hare coin pendant at my recent 40th party, turns out we both love hares (i collect them as art, sculpture etc). Anyway after searching i found your website (she got hers at Cropready fest).
I am delighted to have ordered one just like hers (she won't mind!). And i just wanted to say your work is exquisite, i will never buy Thomas Sabo silver AGAIN. I can't wait to buy more. I love jewellery, nature, silver and unusual pieces, what i've found is perfect!
Your work is beautiful, thankyou Hairy Growler. Love Mrs B.
Elaine Blackwell - England
