Rosie Forrest Jewellery

Hello! The other week I was sent some handmade jewellery from Rosie and it is all absolutely gorgeous so I thought I would write a review for you! I wasn't sent this specifically to review, Rosie sent me the jewellery and just said any feedback is welcome and I thought it would be lovely to write a review.


Everything was packaged amazingly! I feel it really does make a huge difference when you can tell someone has taken the time to package things nicely. I was sent four bracelets and one pair of earrings. I did tell Rosie before she sent anything that I don't have my ears pierced but she was lovely enough to send earrings anyway so I could see what they are like and then I could give them as a gift to someone! They are lovely red teardrop earrings* which you can slightly see in the bottom left of the photo above, however there aren't any more photos of them as I didn't want to take them out of their packet if I will be giving them away.


This first bracelet is my favourite! It is a lovely cream with purple flowers and green leaves. The beads are lovely little oval shapes and it feels really good quality! It does up with a clasp and there are seven different hoops you can do it up on to make it bigger or smaller. (Hopefully that makes sense!) I can't actually find this for sale on her eBay shop, but I will link the shop below so you can have a little look yourself! UPDATE: It is now available! Yay, you can click here to see it.


The second bracelet is another clasp one. This is made up of white, cream, pale pink and rosey gold coloured pearly beads. In the middle is a beautiful pink heart which I absolutely love. It just adds something extra and a little bit unique to a pearly bracelet. This one only has one hoop to do it up on which means it is only one size. 

Clasp bracelets are definitely my favourite type of bracelet! I'm not very good at doing them up though so I do them up first and then just slip them onto my wrist which is what I do with these!


Next are these two lovely rose stretch bracelets*. The left one is my favourite out of the two as it is a pretty pink colour with gold roses on each bead. The right one is a mix of blue, purple and pink colours which all look great together! I love that the beads on both of these bracelets are not one solid colour - they are slightly transparent and reflective.


As well as the jewellery, Rosie was kind enough to also send me three handmade lavender bags* which I love! They smell amazing and I have had them for a couple of weeks now and they still smell just as lovely! The stripe and floral pattern on the material is so pretty and I was thinking of popping these in my sock drawer but I would love to keep them out on show!

I hope you have enjoyed this post! If you are interested in any of these lovely things then I would definitely recommend having a little look at Rosie's eBay shop. She is also on Twitter here if you have any questions for her!

Which is your favourite bracelet? I love jewellery so please let me know if you have any recommendations for other jewellery brands!
