Beretun Designs by Linda Johnson

Beretun Designs by Linda Johnson Hi, I'm Linda, I create hand painted, beautiful things, custom made and unique. I have also carefully sourced other items to complement her own designs.

Using buttons, beads and flowers from the Victorian and Edwardian eras, paste stones, pearls and fabrics from the 50's and 60's put together with new materials my creations are a fabulous mixture of French renaissance, 50's cool and modern wearability. My boutique in Bond Street is full of beautiful things from an simple pair of crystal covered pumps to the full fairy-tale wedding gown. Shoes by B

enjamin Adams, beautiful ornate brooches and crystal jewellery by local designers, 50's glamour fur coats gloves and scarves for winter and crystal detailed swim wear and hats for the summer. I and my talented team are as happy embellishing a pair of jeans or some converse for a client as designing and creating a beautiful wedding gown, hand making a pair of shoes or creating an intricate piece of jewellery

Why not visit the Brighton boutique, we are open 7 days a week or visit the web site at www.beretundesigns.co.uk

I thought today would be an appropriate day to remember a special person in my life.
My Graddad Bert.
I had two grandads who fought in the war, my dads dad Fred, who was a Royal Engineer and spent the war fixing tanks and detecting land mines, sadly I never knew him.
And then mums dad, who spent his war in Burma, via Malta and India, on VE Day, while the UK were celebrating he was still in Asia fighting. The war didn’t finish for him until months later.
He never spoke about his time in the war, (as a medical orderly I think must have seen some terrible sights)
just the amazing locals he met, the colours, the sounds and the things they’d make….. and out of nothing much.
He is the person I inherited my creatively from and who is my inspiration. I’m sure he could make anything out of anything and he could draw too. My mum remembers his letters home with the funny cartoons and drawings at the bottom.
I have lots of wonderful memories of wondering down the garden filled with Primroses and Forget-me -nots, to his shed,
where he’d be, always wearing his work apron, making something.
To this day whenever I see Primroses and Forget-me-nots I think of my granddad Bert and his shed filled with…..stuff to make stuff.
He died early in his 70’s due to complications caused by the maleria he caught many times while away in the war, but every time I create my jewellery with primroses or Forget-me-nots I always think of him
and smile.😊

I know how it is, you think I’ll do that later after I’ve done this and before you know it Mothers Day is here and you’re still doing the other thing 🙄
So here’s your two day reminder, why get a bunch of fresh flowers which might last a week…..if your lucky, when you can get your mum a lovely miniature bouquet which will last for years, and they come with a customised gift card featuring my own hand drawn illustrations.
So what’s there to think about? Pop over to my web site (link in Bio)and treat your mum to something a little different 🌻☺️🎁

My pretty hand made mother’s day gifts to give, send or remember her by❤️
I’ve created cards with my own illustrations and lots of different colour and styles.
Why buy fresh flowers (which will last a week if you’re lucky)

If you’d like a custom card and design that’s fine too, just give me few extra days to create it for you.

I had an idea!
I thought "what t if I make miniature bouquets from the tiny flowers I use in my jewellery, a gift for an event like mother's day, with mum's favourite flowers in, boxed and with a personalised gift card"
And I came up with this little beauty.

iniatures might just be my new obsession 😀
