Before Mr Lobster got down on one knee in the sand, I knew we'd have a cake of cheese instead of the 'traditional' wedding cake
And we did! After a couple of cheese tasting sessions (yum), we decided on our cheeses, there was a heart-stopping moment when one cheese got lost in transit, but luckily my eagle-eyed sister spotted the delivery guy on the 2nd attempt! (he got the wrong house completely first time?!?!?)
So here is a picture of our lovely cake, we decided against decoration and to just let it speak for itself, it was served with some crusty bread and a selection of crackers. We cut it using a lovely cake knife that belonged to his parents and everytime I see it in the drawer (the knife not the cheese, that would be seriously pongy by now) it makes me smile
So the cheeses, all english apart from a little spanish cheese sitting on top
From the bottom: Gorwydd Caerphilly, Kings Favourite, and Barkham Blue, then the cheese on the side is a Cornish Yarg (imported from Cornwall via rubbish couriers)
There are a wonderful amount of colour schemes used in weddings and I'm widening my collection to reflect the choices available
New on the site today are bracelets made using combinations of freshwater pearls and beautiful teal glass pearls, or the teal pearls and clear swarovski crystals. The teal colour is really striking and will add a splash of colour to wedding outfits or could be worn for some everyday sparklyness
With 'up-dos' being a very popular style of wedding hair for both brides and bridesmaids alike, beautiful hairpins give a sparkly finishing touch.
Pearl hairpins are available over at LobsterLove, and these colourful swarovski crystal hairpins will be making their debut this week
I've been making some fab ribbon tied necklaces with chunkier pearls and some gorgeous glass beads featuring little flowers
The picture shows todays creations, one necklace is tied with a 1950's inspired polka dot ribbon in red, whilst the black ribbon has jacquard roses on it adding some subtle detail to the design
Watch out for these necklaces arriving at LobsterLove soon
I decided to get myself a snazzy bracelet holder so I tried it out with some of my stock, so here is a little picture of some of the sparkly, and in some cases, textured bracelets available from LobsterLove
Well it's been a busy few days over at Lobster HQ
I've added this gorgeous aysmmetric necklace to the collection
And I've started on jewellery sets, this very sparkly 'Sophie' set is now available in the shop
Also new this week is swarovski heart earrings in a range of colours, just select the colour option when ordering
