CarrieBlossom is the tenderly nurtured dream of New Zealand-grown, now Brisbane-based Carrie Hazlett.
Creating jewellery began for Carrie as an entrepreneurial exercise at the age of thirteen, crafting and selling beaded and woven friendship bracelets to a bevy of eager customers at school. Many years later, Carrie picked up her pliers, and from her lounge room floor in Brisbane, began lovingly developing the business you are visiting online today.
Life is too short to save glamour only for special occasions!
All jewellery found on this site is lovingly handmade, and many pieces are single or limited edition. Each piece is unique in its own way, and the craftsmanship is always of the highest quality. We specialise in creating jewellery by request, whether it be to match an outfit or a personality, so don’t hesitate to contact us.
Our vision at CarrieBlossom is to create beautiful, unique jewellery you will love to wear!
Caring for your jewellery
While all care is taken to ensure the quality of your CarrieBlossom piece, some items are particularly delicate, and we suggest taking special care of your jewellery so it will continue to look as new for years to come.
We suggest you avoid spraying perfume, deodorants or hairsprays on or near your jewellery. To clean, gently wipe with a damp cloth and dry with a soft, clean cloth (a lens cleaner is perfect).
100% sterling silver jewellery (e.g. sterling silver studs etc.) can be cleaned with silver polish or a silver cloth, or washed gently in warm, soapy water then rinsed and dried with a soft, clean cloth.
Pearl lariats - please expect your leather to darken over time with wear. To clean, simply wipe with a soft, clean, dry cloth.
Storing your jewellery
Ideally, store your jewellery in a soft-lined box or pouch. Try to keep pieces separate so they don't rub together or tangle.
