Egypt

I've been watching a lot of Discovery Channel this week! There was a really interesting programme about excavations in Egypt, and it got me thinking................. out came the bead stash, and here we are - five little stacker bracelets with faceted carnelian, turquoise, aragonite, faceted smoky quartz, amethyst and bali sterling silver.

Pebble

A beach-inspired mix of greyish greens and blues with raku.

A soft and feminine blend of pinks, lavender and green.
