Keishi



Last Sunday I was very brave, and shared a table with my friend Mari at a bead fair. I had a really great time, and met loads of lovely people.I might even do it again!
I saw these on the table next door, and couldn't resist. My daughter is getting married next year, and I think these are just so romantic!

Forever Autumn



So - I wanted to make myself a necklace. It was supposed to be the sky, from dusk through to dawn. Trouble was, I didn't have a clasp that looked right, except for this leaf, so now it's an autumn thing!

Flower Garden



Oh, I'm a bad blogger!! I've been Missing in Action 'cos I've been working out how to make flowers that look like they've been painted. I'm getting there, but it's addictive - just one more set - or I wonder what they'd look like in this colour - I need therapy!!

Chelsea




I love Chelsea flower show, so I've been glued to the box this week. I did find time to make some flowery beads, however - and this bangle and earrings.

Nia's Necklace



We lampworkers are a lucky bunch. All we have to do is make some beads, and then wait for them to turn into something like this! I love it!! It makes my day to see them take on a life of their own, and become something I could never have imagined.
