The owner of Zans Creations, MashaAllah is such a nice person. I met her whilst looking lost and trying to find the venue. I follow her on instagram and completely love all her bouquets, they really are amazing! Her bouquets are something that can be kept forever as a beautiful memory. If you've never checked out her stuff you really should! |

This lady's mother in law makes the most amazing jams ever. They all tasted so good it probably took me half an hour to decide which 6 I wanted. The Blueberry and Honey is just too good, unfortunately, she didn't have that in a larger jar :(. |

These ladies hand-make beautiful headpieces (at a very reasonable price) one of which I just could not keep away from! I'll try and post a picture of it sometime. The sisters themselves are so genuine and nice, makes me love their products even more! |
