Tonight’s the night! 💛

Our brilliant Katie is up for Apprentice of the Year at the Ayrshire Chamber Of Commerce Awards tonight and the whole JOY team couldn’t be prouder of her.

Katie really is a bright spark and a breath of fresh air. She brings so much enthusiasm, energy and personality to the team and has just started the second year of her Business Management degree, which she’s studying through her apprenticeship with us.

Watching her learn, grow and throw herself into everything has been an absolute joy, and whatever happens tonight, we already think she’s a star. ✨

We’ll all be keeping everything crossed for her tonight! 🤞💛

Please join us in wishing Katie lots of luck!

20 years of Not On The High Street 💜

On Friday we headed to Birmingham to celebrate a pretty special milestone: 20 years of NOTHS, alongside some of the utterly brilliant small businesses that make it what it is.

The day also included the Small Brand Awards, and while we didn’t take home Partner of the Year this time, being one of just three businesses shortlisted from more than 5,000 partners felt pretty special in itself. After 13 years of selling on NOTHS, we’re incredibly proud to have made the cut.

A huge congratulations to every winner and nominee, and to all the fabulous small businesses we got to spend the day with. There is SO much talent in one community. 💜

The brilliant Sara Davies hosted the awards and we also got the chance to chat to her properly about JOY, where we’re heading and a few ideas for what might come next. She was every bit as lovely, down to earth and inspiring as you’d hope… and we definitely came away with our heads buzzing.

There was a real feeling in the room that something very exciting is ahead for NOTHS. We’re incredibly grateful to have been part of the story for the last 13 years and even more excited to be part of this next chapter.

20 years down. Here’s to what comes next. 💜

And now… ROLL ON CHRISTMAS. 🎄😂

Jewellery with a little more meaning 💛
Your people. Your story. Your way.

8 years ago today we got the keys to what would become JOY HQ ✨

Before this, we’d spent years working from rented, cramped office spaces. Packing orders in tiny corners. Designing jewellery anywhere we could fit a desk. Constantly dreaming about having a space that actually felt like ours.

And then… this happened.

A building with good light, big windows, an overgrown garden and absolutely no guarantee any of it would work 😂

Since then this space has seen thousands of designs, huge highs, difficult seasons, packing tables covered in orders, laughter, stress, creativity, growth… and versions of us we hadn’t met yet.

No business plan can fully prepare you for what it actually takes to build something from scratch. The chaos. The risk. The becoming.

But sometimes the best things in life really do start with a tiny bit of belief, absolute determination… and a set of keys 💖

What really makes a workplace is the people in it.

The ones who make you look forward to each day. The ones who bring energy, support and a sense of ease, where everyone feels included and part of something.

At JOY, no two days feel the same. There is always laughter, shared moments and a team that lifts each other up, even in the busiest times.

It is that environment that shapes everything we create. Because when you enjoy who you work with, it shows in the care, the detail and the meaning behind every piece.

It is not just what we make. It is how we feel while making it, together.

Do you want to know more about each of these gorgeous humans I am lucky enough to work alongside?

Katie ✨
