LADY BAY OPEN GARDENS JUNE 20TH &21ST
Alys Power Designs jewellery will be on sale at 143 Trent Boulevard during the Lady Bay Open Gardens weekend.
For more information on the Open Gardens Trail go to www.ladybayopengardens.org.uk
“15 wonderfully different local Gardens will be opened to the public, to explore, relax and enjoy. The trail includes gardens (and gardeners) of all shapes and sizes, from family gardens to woodland hide aways, formal gardens to veg patches and green roofs. Its also a great opportunity to meet fellow gardeners who are keen to share their knowledge and enthusiastic efforts – from keen horticulturists & plant addicts to growers of juicy vegetables to perennial potterers.”
The gardens are open 2pm – 6pm and entry to see 15 local and beautiful gardens is only £1.50. Entry to the jewellery sale alone is free but it would be a shame to miss all the other gardens on the trail.

Welcome to Alys Power Jewellery.
There are brand new collections online for you to view and purchase - Nature Study is a collection of garden themed pendants, brooches and earring featuring leaves, twigs, birds and branches made from sterling silver, reclaimed brass and copper.
Or for something a little more quirky, Walter the Hare pendants and brooches follow the adventure of a 3″ tall hare hand cut from recycled copper water pipes. Cute but curious – Walter is good intentioned but often unlucky.
I’ll be attending some local craft events through the summer – more details under Events.
MORE NEW COLLECTIONS COMING SOON – sign up to the mailing list to be the first to see them, just send your name and email to alys@alyspower.co.uk

Welcome to the world and work of Alys Power. I am a freelance designer and jewellery maker based in Nottingham.
A lot of my current work uses materials which are reclaimed, reinvented, reused or recycled. Mainly copper, brass and aluminium. These base materials are mixed with beautiful and fascinating found objects, sterling silver and semi-precious stones to create unique jewellery and accessories.
I also work in sterling silver, making a range of rings, brooches, necklaces and pendants.
Commissions and freelance work are welcome.
