The last Farmer Fresh Market at Palmer Wines just outside Dunsborough was a huge success with over 3000 visitors. I have therefore decided to be a regular face at the market. Next event is already on Sunday the 12th where I will bring a whole new collection of jewellery.

Not only are there a few new bangles in Sterling Silver there is also Necklaces, Bracelets and Earrings made from Semi-Precious Stones and Sterling Silver. Agate in different colours is a repeating part of the jewellery but also Coral, Onyx and Amazonite have been used. I’m hoping the new jewellery will turn out to be a success so I can have the pleasure of producing more and use a wider range of stones in the future.

Palmer Wines have just recently bought the Dunsborough Markets, which means the markets in the future will take place on the lawn and in between the wines at Palmers every 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month.

I could not image a more beautiful place to spend your Sunday morning buying fresh food from local farmers, eat a pancake and find a little present for a friend or yourself in one of the many stalls selling beautiful handmade products.

Krogholm will share a stall with Back…in balance. Diane will bring her massage chair to provide you with a wonderful and relaxing massage.

I will as usual display and sell my handmade sterling silver pendants and rings. As a new thing there will also be a small selection of bangles. I have just begun producing bangles so even if you do not find the bangle you love, there is a good chance it will show up in the near future.

I was so lucky this Christmas to receive the tools for making bangles, and I have been so sad that I have not had time to use them before now. For the past two evenings I have been working in my workshop here in Dunsborough and have now finished my first three bangles.

I have posted them to the website and facebook and would love some feedback and comments.

When buying a pendant at Krogholm you can choose to also buy a Sterling Silver Snake Chain. Normal retail prices are $60-80 but I sell them for $30. That is the price I pay for them but since it is not chains or re-sale I do, I sell them at this price as a service to my customers. Remember if your pendant fits on a neoprene cord you will receive this for free.
You will also receive your jewellery in one of the gift boxes shown on the photos in this album. Gift boxes are free.

The 48th Festival of Busselton is just around the corner. Again this year there will be a Petticoat Lane Market on Queen Street and Prince Street. This market attracts a huge number of various stalls and a very big crowd. This year the market is scheduled on January the 18th from 6-9pm. Krogholm will have a joint stall with Life Photography. Come enjoy the market and pop by our stall for a chat. See print outs from Life Photography and maybe she even got a great offer for you. Krogholm will be displaying and selling handmade pendants and rings in sterling silver.

Krogholm website has now been updated so customers can purchase jewellery in an easy and safe way via PayPal.

For pendants and rings on stock you now see a little PayPal button when hovering the wished item. When purchasing a pendant the customer can choose to just buy the pendant or buy it on a neoprene cord or a sterling silver snake chain. Prices and options will show for each item.

Saturday the 17th of December we have this year’s last Handmade Market in Margaret River. The market will be full of creative stallholders and unique ideas for Christmas presents.

The market take place on Tunbridge Street from 9am to 1pm. Krogholm will of course be there as well displaying and selling sterling silver jewellery.

Silver Pendant

I just finished two new pendants with matching rings. Everything is of course in Sterling Silver.

I have this time chosen a very classic and stylish nordic look.

See more pictures under Pendants or Rings.

The rings are open on the back to fit multiple ring sizes.

The pendants will look great on a thick black neoprene cord.  This cord opens and closes with a very easy to use magnet lock in stainless steel.  As always the neoprene cord is free.
