Amy Brenan, Heirlooms of Wareham

Amy has extensive experience in the field of antique jewellery having spent ten years of her career as Head of Jewellery at a leading auction house. She has valued and successfully sold many important collections over the years and is a qualified member of the Gemmological Association of Great Britain (Gem-A), the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and a member of the Society of Jewellery Historians. She gained her Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors status in 2010 and received her Certificate in Gemmology from the Gemmological Association in 2011.

She relaunched Heirlooms of Wareham in 2017, having taken over an existing business which was established in 1996.

She has also worked as a jewellery valuer for ITV’s Dickinson’s Real Deal. She is building her own collections of paste buckles and 18th century Romantic jewellery so as you can see, for Amy, jewellery is her work and play! 

Her favourite bit of her job is when she sells an engagement or wedding ring as she loves being part of something so special that people are going to keep for a lifetime.

I cannot wait to see you.

Join us for an educational and fun evening with Cathy Mosely who not only runs the Bournemouth Live Laugh Love Ladies Club but also a qualified expert on fashion & style.

Do you know your personal style?⁠⠀

Understanding your style can enhance your confidence and ensure that you feel good every day - eliminating that overwhelm when you open your wardrobe each day to choose an outfit!!  

If you are reading this and thinking “I don’t have a personal style” Think again! Because you do!!

Style is not about having the latest fashion or spending a fortune on designer outfits! It’s about how you put your outfits together and add your own personal stamp.  Cathy will share how knowing your personal style can save you time and money when shopping - pick the right clothes, that fit and flatter your body shape, in the right colours for you, giving you outfits that you’ll love to wear.

Cathy will be giving us some simple tips on how to elevate our everyday style.

We are in for a treat on this event.  Let's get into the Christmas spirit and be the envy of your neighbours.

Come and join Catherine from My Scented Home for an evening creating your own gorgeous Christmas wreath.

Be the envy of your neighbours when you place your stunning creation on your front door this Christmas. Catherine will teach you how to create the copper base, mossed based wreath covered with gorgeous Christmas spruce, pastiche, eucalyptus and other seasonal greenery. Then show you how to add the finishing touches using dried fruits, cinnamon, cones, chillies, feathers and more.

Each wreath will be totally unique to the individual. Full tuition and all materials included in this creative evening.

At the end of the evening, you will take home your very own bespoke Christmas Wreath creation to enjoy and will last well into January.  This is not a normal club night, this will be a fun interactive Christmas wreath making workshop where you will take home your own Christmas wreath.  As well as having gorgeous Christmas themed hot food on the night, raffle and fabulous company. 

Wear something sparkly/Christmassy. (Optional)
