Tattoo Tuesday – 4th March 2014

For those who didn’t know – I helped out the lovely Clare of Dolly Cool at the Tattoo Tea Party this Saturday! We had fun, a good catch up and (most importantly) met some of you lovely brides-to-be! Here was her lovely stand with the addition of a few promotions and my banner. (The offers are still valid that were available at the Tattoo Tea Party – Just drop me an email and I can send you the details over at Rachael@marrymeink.co.uk)

When I wasn’t chatting to the lovely visitors of the stall, I got the chance to have a nosey around myself and had the chance to visit the wonderful Constance of Nostalgia Traditional Tattooing‘s spot (Who was unfortunately away from her booth)  and purchased this absolutely gorgeous print..

So on Saturday I went down and had a right nosey round, found my banner and chatted to some friends who I knew would have stalls there, it was a great day.

I cam home with lots of pretty things from many stalls such as Pieces Of The Past and Dolly Cool, rested my head and ventured back to Manchester Central armed with goodies to set up table for the day back in the lounge.

After the day, it was time for the award giving, after seeing many cool tattoos (They appear at the end of this post) I was handed the award for Best Of Sunday to Piotr Gie at Rock’n’roll Tattoo and Piercing, here is the celebratory photograph..

Accessories Ahoy! Friday 10th February 2012: Dolly Cool

“Cool Jewels For Rockin’ Gals!”

 

Welcome to a new fortnightly post for Marry Me Ink!.. To which I’ll be focusing on alternative accessories for the tattooed lady!

In celebration of Dolly Cool‘s third birthday this week (and because Clare is awesome!) I though why not feature some of her wonderful range on the site?!!

Dolly Cool is inspired on Clare’s love of Rockabilly, Tattoos and the 50s – What’s not to love?!! All jewellery is hand drawn & coloured on hard wearing plastic and then attached to silver plated low-nickel 

Seriously – I am totally in love with the new Skele & Spotty Owl range! (And of course the awesome anchor & sailor octopus!)

They’re so cute! 

Clare is based just around the corner from me (how convenient?!) in Manchester, where she designs, produces and hand embroiders all her products.

EVERYTHING is Clare’s own work! (How fantastic are her products?!!)

The fun “Candy Cool” range – 1″ tiles on 16″ silver plated chains

As well as gorgeous jewellery, Clare also creates wonderful hair pieces and ties:

How awesome right?!!

You can find Clare on her stall at this year’s Tattoo Tea Party weekend in Manchester on the 3rd & 4th of March.

Visit www.dollycool.co.uk to see a full range of products (I selected a couple of my favourites) and like the facebook page.

You can also see the Inked Up shoot I did in Manchester using Dolly Cool’s Skully Russian Doll range here!
