Sweetheart <3

Sweet sterling heart dangles, with sparkly, pink swarovski crystal beads. The beginning of a new range I think.


I'm also in the current voter on etsy: jewellery for mothers day

New Skirt :)

My new skirt arrived from the gorgeous Fran (her etsy: lyptis ) today. It's totally gorgeous, comfy & fits well :) I love the soft, grey material & the length (just to my knees) is perfect. I can see that this skirt will get lots of wear.

Naturally, I took some self-portraits this afternoon in the nice light, including this weeks 52weeks photo. I took lots, so I thought I'd upload a few here :)

Purple-ness, purpleful, purplish :)

newly listed on my etsy, purple beads on deep purple cord. Experimenting with something a bit different (for me, anyway).

New Business Cards

I finally got around to making myself some new business cards. I drew myself a logo -->
using my brothers' drawing tablet, which was challenging, but fun.

& rather excitingly, my lampwork pendants are now being carried by a gallery in Riverton. I met the owner of the gallery at a workshop last year & went down on Friday to deliver some. They were very enthusiastically received, which was a real buzz.

We're all busy getting ready for the Folk Fair, which is on the 4th & 5th of April. Lots of new stock the price, input & find room for in the shop. Not to mention putting together a new display for my jewellery in the space under the counter.

Rich Earth

Created my first ever etsy treasury last night (you can view it here)

It was lots of fun (although it's ridiculously nerve-wracking waiting for a spot to open), there are so many beautiful things on etsy. I started with the gorgeous "Where the Wild Things Are" necklace by realisticcreations & just went from there. If I had the funds, I'd buy every piece in the treasury :)

Beads, beads, beads

Finally annealed all the beads I've made recently & turned most of them into pendants. Spent part of the afternoon taking photos of them, so I thought I'd upload a few. Also listed one of them on my etsy.

Hehe, I've been taking drop shots XD

Just a quick post about.......um, nothing really :)

Rather pleased with how this droplet photo turned out (I have played with the colours), so I thought I'd post it here too.

The last few days have been lovely & cool, unfortunately tomorrow is supposed to be the start of some more hot weather. Oh well, as long as it doesn't get as bad as last time, I'm sure we'll all survive.

Eh, enough prattling, time to go to bed.......night, night :)
