Glazed Gift: I didn't stock the Erstwilder Christmas releases due to my holiday but I did receive a free Glazed Ham brooch. I would like to support the homeless in Oxford by auctioning it. Please reply to this post with your bid, bidding closes 8pm Sunday 9th. Bidding starts at £5 in increments of £1 please. Free postage too of course
Thursday giveaway (well nearly) I have just reduced the price of a few Erstwilder pieces to £3.95, grab yourself a bargain, when they're gone they're gone. Nothing hidden, and yes postage is still free. There's more, not just those shown here!

Hello lovely people, Tuesday's Erstwilder launch is now loaded onto the website, ready for the silly o'clock 1.30am launch. I have also re-jigged the website so there are generic groups of brooches/earrings/necklaces showing the three brands I stock ie Daisy Jean, Erstwilder and Oh So Flamingo. Hope it helps you find what you're looking for. 😊

Ive bought 2 brooches from carnation collectables and can say i really am so happy with them and will be a repeat buyer great service and value for money
I've ordered Erstwilder brooches from Carnation Collectables, and also just today received a beautiful bespoke koi carp print skirt which arrived within 6 working days of ordering (thats start to finish of me ordering, sorting measurements, Anne getting in the material, making the skirt, and posting). It fits perfectly, I really couldn't be happier :) Anne is so friendly and approachable - and very patient with me picking what length to have my skirt! I would recommend this business <3
I wish there was a higher star option because I really could rate such beautiful treasures higher, as well as such lovely and helpful people x
