Cheekyboo | Dancing Flamingo Necklace

I'm so excited to write this post because I love an opportunity to shed light on small businesses! Cheekyboo Emporium is an online shop that sells a unique variety of handmade jewellery and accessories by independent designers. From necklaces to stationary and tote bags, you won't run out of cute things to look at!

I recently discovered this shop through one of Dorkface's blog posts (I can't remember which one actually otherwise I'd link to it directly!) and I was so amazed and in love with all of the cute and kitsch-ey designs, I could have bought them all but I think I was mostly taken away by the 'Dancing Flamingo' necklace. 

I'm not usually one for wearing jewellery, it's only recently that I've decided to wear it. It started off by buying a cute brooch from Deer Arrow which made me realise how much jewellery can finish off an outfit. Honestly though, I am just terrible at keeping and remembering to wear necklaces and so on, so I never really bothered; but getting into pin-up fashion has really helped me change my mind on that!

First of all, the packaging is SO cute and amazing. I've not even opened the package and I'm in love. This is what I absolutely adore about buying from small businesses - the care and attention to detail that goes into products including the packaging is beautiful. 

I appreciate that they've left me a business card as I will pass this on. 

I honestly wasn't expecting such lovely packaging. The necklace comes prettily packaged in a 'I Love Crafty' recycled gift box; this is nice as it's great for giving as gifts but as I don't have any particular accessories storage at the moment, I will be keeping it safe in this box.

The necklace chain, including the legs, is gold plated. The chain length is 20" in total whilst the flamingo is 7cm. The flamingo itself is made from transparent neon pink acrylic. It's just so pretty and is a pretty decent size which will make a lovely statement piece!

My favourite feature is definitely the dangly legs, I'm really hoping this necklace holds out well but I don't see why it shouldn't. 

The 'Dancing Flamingo' sells for £20 and is worth all the pennies, watch out for it in future outfit posts!
