Bees

Wednesday 28 March 2012


Bee jewellery (surprising how many pieces there are) and sapphires were the inspiration behind our Bumble bees card from the Eden range. Here are some of our favourite vintage finds:







A modern piece from Alex Monroe. So sweet


When I was little we also used to keep bees; in hives outside but also in a sort of observation box set into the wall in the telephone room. It was like this one below, only completely set into the wall, with a pipe so bees could come in from and go outside. It was fascinating to sit watching the bees work and spot the queen bee whilst talking on the phone!
