When recently given the opportunity to review some items from Funky Laser, I was very excited. Having seen their items previously on Sarah’s blog, I knew they had some great pieces and it was with great intrigue that I awaited my parcel from them.
Inside I found two amazing items – one which I am keeping for the future which you shall see in a moment and the other which I wear often but try to keep away from a sneaky toddler’s prying hands!
The items I were sent were the Mr & Mrs Wedding Cake Topper in blue (£13.99) and the Caramel Gingerbread Man necklace on a gold chain (£5.50). Two very different items but items which enabled me to really understand the business as a whole.
FunkyLaser Ltd offers quirky but distinctive designs made using the latest high speed laser cutters – ensuring a customer’s wait for their item is minimal!
As you may have guessed it, I am saving the cake topper for our actual wedding (date still not set) so have been very careful with the product when handling it. Arriving in a sealed plastic bag on a piece of card showing directions for use, the cake topper is certainly eye catching. Although the topper itself feels very hard, I don’t want to risk breaking it so have been careful not to put too much pressure onto it. It is beautiful though and will be pride of place in our cake.
There are a vast number of cake toppers available on the site and there are also a vast number of colours available for each one. I am quite glad that I received the blue as it would definitely have been between the blue and the black had I been picking myself. We are looking to cut costs as much as possible when it comes to the wedding so this is another item to go into the wedding box ready for the big day.
Now for the item that will be used much more in the present, the Caramel Gingerbread Man necklace. I’ve always loved little gingerbread man characters (adore the little one in Shrek!) so was happy to see this included in my parcel. I don’t tend to wear much jewellery besides my engagement ring as I have a pesky little toddler who likes to grab things – and inevitably breaks them too. I had taken to buying cheap jewellery from Amazon as Jack had broken so many – he even managed to break one from Amazon within minutes of me putting it on!!
I try to wear this when going out as a family or going out alone – I see no point in wearing jewellery around my house anymore if it is just going to get broken – and I would much rather people see my jewellery than hiding it away. I have had a number of quirky necklaces over the years but what I love about this one is that he really ‘funs’ up an otherwise boring outfit. I could be wearing a simple top and jeans but this little man makes what I’m wearing look a little more fun.
The necklace itself is of a great quality and an extremely affordable price. It fascinates me just how FunkyLaser manage to cut their products – whilst we know that they use the best laser cutters around so time is not an issue, the precision and care that goes into each item is simply phenomenal and I am definitely interested to see if they expand their range beyond jewellery and wedding accessories – I can see them doing very well for themselves if so!
All items are available on the FunkyLaser website. Why not take a look for yourself?
