Kooky Boutique = a one girl production line of pretty little things.

The girl is me, miss leslieanne. I'm based down on the south coast of england, living with my man, my boy & my dog. Life is never dull, often hectic, and mostly powered by coffee and cake.
Other than my boys, my dog & making things, the loves of my life include music, fashion, floral prints, butterflies, flowers, birds, taking photos, originality and imagination.

The pretty things are varied depending on what I've been up to, and at any one time might include jewellery, accessories, art prints, cards and other treats. Variety, spice, life.

My weapons of choice include beads, buttons, fabrics and papers - with a few surprises thrown in here and there to keep things interesting.

Anything else you need/want to know, just ask, I don't bite. Unless you're cake.

You can find me chattering away about everything and nothing over at my blog: www.kookyboutique.blogspot.com - do come and say hi.

{more shop info...}

I take a great deal of pride in my work, use only top quality materials, and would never offer something for sale that I wouldn't be happy to purchase myself.

[jewellery & accessories]

at kooky boutique, each piece tends to only be made once, partly because of my short attention span (i get bored and/or distracted all too easily), mostly because i like to think my customers are buying one off originals that nobody else anywhere else in the world will ever have :D

however, if you see something you like in the 'sold' section, do let me know - a similar piece could be possible, and i'm always up for discussing custom orders.

materials used are a mixture of brand spanking new goodies sourced from all around the world, and re-worked vintage treasures, check out each individual item for details.
findings though, are never recycled, i only ever use brand new plated metal earwires, clasps etc.

[art, cards & things of a photographic nature]

are all my own work. i use only top quality materials that i'd be happy to give or receive myself, plus a dollop of imagination. techniques are varied and plentiful, so be sure to read the listing fully to know what you're getting.

photos/cards and so on can generally be reproduced at will, however, if an item is an original, a special one off, or a limited edition, it'll say so in the listing.

again, if you'd like a piece made exactly the way you want it, or a very specific card (or invites, etc.) give me a shout & i'll see what i can do.

[delivery]

p&p costs are clearly stated in each listing, and savings are always offered for multiple purchases.

all kooky packages are put together with lots of love and attention, and should reach you in perfect condition - of course i can't control the postal gremlins (though i do make sure to get proof of postage for all my packages), but in the unlikely event of any problems cropping up, don't hesitate to give me a shout & i'll do all i can to fix them.

[and finally]

I want people to be happy & confident to order from my shop, and to recommend kooky boutique to friends, so if there's ever anything i can do to improve your kooky experience, just give me a shout!

if you have any other questions - ask them! send me a message on here, or send an email to lesliexanne [at] yahoo.co.uk & i'll get back to you as soon as i can.

thanks for stopping by - hope to be sending you something kooky soon! ♥
