A big thank you to all of you...x 2009...
Hey Les,
The Necklaces arrived, about 20mins after I emailed you on Saturday. They
are absolutely perfect! I have given them to my friends, 1 had
tears in her eyes and another was speechless... two things that
don't often happen. I want to say Thank You again for making
these special pendants. We will definitely be recommending you
to friends and family!
Zoe, Bristol
Dear Mr H Growler,
Received jewellery today - lovely. Thanks for your extra efforts to get them
here on time. Whilst I would like to keep you to myself I will be sure
and let my friend know about you.
Peace, Love and Liberation.
Soo, Inverness
Les,
Thank you.
It's beautiful.
It is a bit large for the finger I had originally intended it to adorn, but sits
well on the index finger of my right hand... as if it's made for it,
to be honest, as it means the hallmark is shown off...
Will probably start writing more... and painting... and perhaps even picking
my nose in public, just to show it off!
Seriously, it is really quite special.
Am going to try my best to resist loooking at the hairygrowler site
when I get paid, as I do spend far too much money (a habit I am doing
my best to curb)... but rest assured, I will certainly return when
I deserve a treat or need to buy a special birthday present... and
you will be thoroughly recommended to others...
Once again, thank you, Davina, Hertfordshire
Hi Les
I love the necklace. Many thanks. Janet, Somerset
Hi Les, Thank you for your lovely email. We saw your stall at Glastonbury
this year and my friend Sally bought a pound coin with a heart which
she really loves.
Our friend Jenny is getting married at the weekend and we wanted to
get her something special to remind her of her big day. When we saw
the Jenny wren we thought it would be perfect! Thank you, I cant wait
to see it! Many thanks, Laura, Newcastle Upon Tyne
Thank you so much – I love it and it’s
not even for me!!I think I may be looking at your website for
myself in the near future!Thank you again for doing it so quickly.
Karen, Milton Keynes

I saw your stall at Glastonbury and loved the uniqueness of the pieces.

Thank you so much,

Thank you for the beautiful mermaid necklace.
We have brought many items from you both on line and from the craft
market and are never disappointed.
Jane (spikey), Royston, Hertfordshire.
Hi Les,
Just recieved my order today and am delighted, just over the moon.
I have given your business cards to a couple of friends who were visiting when
my parcel arrived. They were as impressed with your work as I was.
Keep on creating. Many thanks, Mary, Wester
Skeld, Shetland
Dear Les
Just to say a huge thank you for the ‘silver autumn’ pendant, which arrived yesterday.
Becky was thrilled with it -she’s a real fan of your creations, having seen you
at the Cambridge Folk Festival last summer – so it was a good move! You may recall
I think that she wrote you a poem once about a lost ear-ring, (I think that’s
what it was) and you were very kind and sent her a replacement.
No doubt we’ll be returning to you in the future – and may see you again at Cambridge,
though not this year as we are on Scilly at that time.
Once again, many thanks for a beautiful pendant, and best wishes. Peter
and Becky Crispin, Launceston, Cornwall
I
can tell you that I am really more than simply well pleased. You
took time to do a truly marvellous job and I cannot wait to show
it off to all and sundry!
When next my merry crewe meets I'll have it on when I sound everyone out about
those florin pentagrams. I know two people already who want one.
Not surprisingly by gosh, I'm one of 'em!
Thanks so much. I'm delighted! Will make sure that those cards get to folk
who need 'em and if need be I'll start Xeroxing them off.
Best wishes,
Julian,
Providence RI,
USA
Hello again
Les, Received bangle and ring yesterday. My daughter is delighted
with both. They are fitting perfect so once again i just wish to
thank you for all your help. My other daughter was admiring it so
you never know there may be another order nearer christmas, we will
wait and see. again thanks. Edna,
Peterhead, Aberdeenshire
Hi Les,
Just to say that my fork bangle arrived this morning, and it is really
beautiful. It is a birthday present for my friend Jenny, and I know
she will love it! Thankyou very much, Keep up the fantastic work you
do, I'll be sure to buy more from you in the near future. (Probably
next pay day ; )
Kind regards Carolyn, towcester, Northamptonshire
Les Hiya
What a wonderful surprise in my office this morning!
I've shown everyone here and they also are totally bowled over.
We will go down on Saturday knowing we are taking something very special indeed
to mark the occasion.
May there be many more 'Hairy G moments, or should I say, mementos' in the years
ahead!
Best wishes
Damian, Bury St Edmunds
Hi Les,
Cufflinks have arrived. They are fabulous and Peter loves them. Thank you so
much for all your hard work in getting them done and to me for today.
You've been brilliant.
Next time we're in Cambridge we'll stop by the arts and crafts market and say
hello.
Once again thanks so much.
Regards
Paula, Great Dunmow, Essex
Hello
I just wanted to say thank you so much for my pendant, it's absolutely beautiful
and I love it! It's so funky and different and im very very happy
with it. Thank you so much again.
Geraldine, Newcastle Upon Tyne
Hi Les
The rings have arrived and I think I can safely say we're over the moon!! As
I said to Graham, if I'd seen my ring in a wedding ring shop (as if...)
it's definitely the one I'd have picked. And they both fit perfectly.
And perfectly wrapped. We're thinking about giving them to the best
man that way, so we can have a laugh as he tries to get them out!
Thank you so much. I've a feeling we'll be lifelong customers!
Sam x, Birmingham, West Midlands
Hi Les
Thank you so much for resending that and for the warm comments, I really appreciate
them.
I have looked for years for some many special gifts for special occasions and
always been at a loss, often taking the easy route with a donation
instead. When one is invited to a celebration it is always because
of ones' relationship with that person and finding a gift to reflect
how special that relationship is, has always been a difficulty every
time I open an RSVP envelope!. Not any more!
Your work says so much. Hours of painstaking skill, crafting an exciting design,
in such an inauspicious everyday beautifully simple object. Perfect
in its 'complication and simplicity'. Few things in life are!
Best wishes
Damian, Norfolk.
Hi there the creative les

Hi Les,
I just wanted to let you know that the beautiful butterfly wing arrived safely
today. It is gorgeous. It is for my daughters birthday and I know she
is going to love it. I love the teeny little heart at the bottom of
the wing it is a very nice touch.
Thank you once again and I hope to be back again!

Hello again
Thanks for your prompt reply, you have set my mind at rest about the fit, my
friend will probably be average/normal. I am going to order the Silver
Fork Bangle and a Cedar Tree spoon Brooch. I will do it on your site
to secure payment details etc. If possible I would love them to be
as near the design on the site as possible. Your jewelry is the coolest
I've seen, I'm sure my eco friend will love it for her special birthday,
I will be telling everyone about your site.
regards

Hi Les
Just to say thanks for the fab spoons - even better than the website promised!
Carol - Cambridge
Oh Les you
have made my day! Thank you SO much! I’ve just ordered it this minute,
I’m really looking forward to seeing it!
I’m so glad I’ve found your website, you’re going to be having a lot more custom
from me in the future I promise!
Hope you have a lovely day,
Very best wishes,
Sian - Port Talbot, Neath Port Talbot, Wales
I
was introduced to your site yesterday. Wow what can I say, it
is just fantastic. I love so many things you have made and will
be purchasing very soon. Kirstie, Cork, Ireland
Thank you
again for your bracelet, it really is lovely. I gave it a quick polish
and it seemed to come to life, all shining like. It's also quite
a conversation starter so the word is being spread!
I hope you get an immense sense of well being and satisfaction from your work.
I'm sure you do, actually, but take it from me, you should feel smug,
too. Making things is a real blessing isn't it? being creative is
like therapy non? Your blog is great, and your self deprecating
style is a blast of fresh air. oh yes, the photo.......................
when I can work out how to send just one photo and not the whole
file I'll get back to you. stay warm and well fed dude
(conspiritorially) as the wise man once rightly said, people will forget what
you said, and people will forget what you did, but people won't forget
how you made them feel, and wearing this bracelet makee me feel grand.
well done son!
Felicity - Hetfordshire
Les,
I just want to say thank you for all the jewelry you've made me. My mam just
bought me a lucky sixpence (the one with the clover) and the swallow
earrings for my birthday which was a total surprise. I've also got
the cloud earrings and a spoon ring which my boyfriend Andrew bought
me (you will probably remember making that one as it was a commission)
aswell which is my favourite =] So i'm all blinged out now (for now...i
have my eye on the nice cloud necklace =])
Thanks again
Lina - Newcastle Upon Tyne

My friend is going to love it! Thank you so much, Hannah
- Hampshire
Hi Les,
Thanks for your email. I have seen your work and I was very impressed by your
creativity, I have seen nothing thing like it before, one is for a
present to a very old friend of mine and I thought an antique fork
footed the bill!! one is for myself. I'm looking forward to receiving
it and spreading the word to your wonderful work.
Many thanks
Jo - High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire
Hi Les,
I've just got to see the fork bangle and bird necklace you made me (They were
delivered a while ago but I had them delivered to my home rather
than university address oops, so I only just got to see them!), and
they're really beautiful, thank you so much!!
Thanks for the quick delivery and just generally awesome jewelery -
Ellie, Newtonards, Northern Ireland
Dear
Les,
Wow! At last my daughter has dug her car out of the snow and gone to the P.O
to collect my bangle. She has just sent me a closeup photo, and it
is absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much, I shall treasure it.
Love the hare, too.
I wish you all success in the future, you deserve it, and if ever I come down
your way, I will suss out the Craft market with interest.
Very best wishes,
Valerie-MOLD, Flintshire
Les,
Thanks a lot, becky is overjoyed with her ring. I couldn't have been happier
with it either, it turned out fantastically. I look forward to receiving
the earrings.
Take care

cool cat deigns one day. I LOVE cats!
Anna - Sittingbourne, Kent
Thank you
so much. I work in a Waste & Recycling Team, and one of our very
close colleagues is leaving for pastures new - and this will be our
gift for her.
We wanted something which we felt linked in with the work we do - so your items
are quite apt (and very clever and imaginative).
We are a team of 6 females and have all been scanning your site - so you may
be getting a few more orders over the coming months! But we won't
be so impatient in future!! Thanks once again
Jane - Basildon, Essex
Hi Les,
Just a note to thank you for the jewellery that I ordered from you which
arrived (like Santa) in the nick of time on Christmas Eve! They were
very well received by my daughters and their friend who was sharing
the celebrations with us, especially as they love anything quirky and
original, and are also firm advocates of re-cycling. Hope you had a
good Chrstmas yourself and wishing you all the best in 2009

Hi
My partner bought me a cedar tree brooch for christmas.As Neil said it was the obvious choice as both houses we have lived in have had large cedar trees in the front garden. I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy wearing it, I love the idea that my little tree is unique. I have hinted that collecting a whole forest would be cool - so role on valentines day!!
Happy Hen
Thank you! I am so pleased that
I found your website - everything on there is amazing and no doubt
I will be back at some point in the future too!

Hello there!
This is just a quick email to say the biggest THANK YOU I possibly can without
actually doing it in person!
Thank you for designing and making the most beautiful ring I have ever seen – it is a fork prong with 2 stars cut out and the engraving “you are my star” inside - I received this as an engagement ring on 24th Dec this year!
Just thank you thank you and once again thank you – I totally love it!
Ok I’ll go now and stop with the harassment!! ha ha
Becky :D
xXx
Thanks for the lovely fok bracelet and speedy delivery. Have a merry xmas and keep up the good work

Dear Les,

Hi
Les,
The brooch arrived today and I just wanted to say thank you - it's beautiful!
It's a Christmas present for my mum, but I'm tempted to get one for
myself too :) It's really nice that it's been handmade and to order,
I think she will appreciate that.
Thanks again,
Meriel - Sheffield
Hi Les,
Thank you for your e-mail. I have no doubt that it will look fab! I bought three
pieces from you at Glastonbury this year (Queen of the fairies, check
out this star and a flying pig!) each was adored by its new owner and
has received many a compliment since! I look forward to receiving the
new brooch and will undoubtedly be calling upon your services again
in 2009. Have a Happy Christmas and a great New Year too!
Kind regards,
