JEWEL OF THE AISLE Jodie Gearing Bespoke Jewellery Design picked up two prestigious awards this spring while also acquiring a nomination for the Muddy Stilettos Award 2022. The bespoke jewellery designer, based in Bedfordshire, was voted winner of the Rings in East of England category by Weddings Inc. Competing with multiple suppliers, owner Jodie Gearing came out on top after the judging panel researched and vetted the quality of her work. In the same month, Jodie also collected a second award from the International Wedding Awards after meeting strict criteria to win the Rings category for the UK. The entry criteria was based on direct customer feedback, requiring her to demonstrate real customer reviews and testimonials. Jodie is delighted by the response from her customers. She says, “I’m completely blown away by the kind words and support my wonderful clients have shown. Every piece I design is special to the individual, and it’s amazing to see the joy it brings to each customer and the sentiment it represents”. Jodie will find out in September if she’s lucky enough to win an Muddy Stilettos Award, which would make it a hat trick for 2022 awards. In the meantime, she now sets her sights on a new design studio currently under construction for her to conduct jewellery design consultations with clients. “It’s been a long dream of mine to own my own studio”, Jodie comments. She adds, “I’m currently putting the finishing touches on the space (located at my home) and I look forward to meeting clients, old and new, at my new location over the coming months.” Check out: www.jodiegearing.com PURE ELEGANCE Located in Stevenage, Elegance China Hire is making a comeback this year and has launched a new website that’s user-friendly to clients.
