My shed has arrived!







I had my lovely shed delivered yesterday - they managed to get the door round the wrong way, so they have to replace the whole front next week, but I'm still thrilled with it! Now we need to insulate..


















These are some sets of silver cores which are in the etsy shop now http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5297770
I'm really happy with them - they are a set of five unique beads, and I have put them on a high quality greek leather thong, which I have ended with sterling silver fittings (I just can't find good enough thong necklaces in the shops, so I make my own) so they can be worn on that or swapped to a silver core bracelet..


Also, there is a set of beads - that's right, I made a whole set without getting distracted, and I think they are gorgeous, with lots of depth.. they are called Purple Freckles!

February










Hello - it's the middle of February already, and it has been really lovely and sunny.. I have ordered my shed which will be my workshop so I don't have to put all my glass away after each session! My collection of glass rods and other bits is growing and it's all getting a bit crowded!




Here are a couple of beads I've made recently - I have been experimenting and trying out new skills.
