"This isn't the first little animal I have had from Rach and I have no doubt it won't be the last. The love and attention to detail Rach puts into every piece she handmakes is awesome. She is amazing."

"Fabulous, personal service. Bluebell Lane made me a bespoke bracelet to fit my skinny wrist! I haven't worn bracelets in years because they slide off my hands. This bracelet was right up my street, made from sustainable materials and made to fit. Perfect. Customer service was incredible and the Silk Purse Guild site made it so easy to order and pay. Great se..." Read more

"As a gardener, I have found myself rather down, after having to remove all of the snowdrops from my garden. Our new puppy literally eats everything green, and snowdrops, though beautiful, are desperately poisonous for dogs. Image my delight when my daughter bought me this gorgeous fused glass tea light holder. It has made my birthday perfect XX"

"I bought a few of Katy's stunning hairpins for my daughter. Her hair is super slippy, and not many things stay put. These Beautiful Handpainted hairpins remain in place all day. It looks like she is wearing works of art in her hair. She loves them as much as I do and takes great pleasure in picking out which one she wants in her hair. I love Katy's creations..." Read more

"I've wanted these beautiful earrings for a while and finally decided to treat myself and boy was I glad I did, they are even better than I hoped they would be. I've put them on straight away and I don't think I'll be taking them off either. Thank you for the super speedy delivery I absolutely love them!"

"I loved joining in with the Secret Sauce, it was a great experience to be able to help share other Guild sellers work, and to have something of interest to post on my socials other than my own craft. The graphics that Sara designed for us were amazing and something I would not have been able to do myself. My social pages saw a huge leap in reach that I woul..." Read more

"I have really enjoyed my first Valentine Secret Sauce. For me it was a baptism of fire, as I am not so good with my tech. But Sara's explanations for the tasks were really helpful. I loved seeing all the makes pop up in the socials, receiving so many kind comments from our followers. I loved the interaction between all the Guildies and being part of the cha..." Read more

"Firstly, I would definitely recommend taking part. There have been so many benefits to me personally. Yes, the analytics show that there have been massive engagement to my social media, which is great, but the exercise has improved other areas within my business too. For example, my understanding of my social media has vastly improved along with my confide..." Read more

Not only is all the artwork done for you free of charge you also get video training guides holding your hand all the way through and an incredibly supportive super friendly group of sellers to go with it. I can’t recommend it enough!!..." Read more

"Sara couldn't be doing more to support us guildies and to help us support each other. The secret sauce is made easy to take part in and sharing and liking each others works helps beat the algorithms and gives you all the feels! Certainly gives a little kick up the bottom to someone like me who does not do enough on social media!!!"

"Thanks to Sara of The Silk Purse Guild for her careful introduction to the Guild, complete with videos and hand-holding to get me going! I have come from a Marketing background yet felt I'd learnt a lot of new tricks, e.g. how to get spotted by Google by extra careful image-naming and tags! The support is absolutely brilliant! Thank you."

"Well, what can I say.... The SPG was the best thing I signed up to. I can now list all my products in my own shop and not have to worry about listing fees. I have learnt so much from Sara about marketing and photography. (My products images were pretty poor before) I'm sure other sellers will agree with this... Sara has put 💯 effort into the site and she ju..." Read more
