Kalidescope


Finally managed to photograph this necklace but it really doesn't do the beads justice.

My passion is for lampwork beads I can't get enough of them and Laura Sparling is one of my favourite lampworkers. I've combined loads of sterling silver beads and some Swarovski with the beads to make this necklace which drapes just beautifully. It's for sale on my website at the moment but I might be tempted to keep it myself.

On a seperate note to beads and jewellery we adopted a cat on Friday. We have always been a family of animal lovers especially for cats but after we lost both of ours within a couple of years of each other we decided that it was just too stressful to have another cat. However, friends of ours are moving to Spain and they just didn't think their 8 year old moggie would cope with the move so asked if we'd take her in. We nearly bit their hands off and are now the proud 'parents' to Minnie, she's just the most gentle, friendly cat I've met and has settled into our home as if she's been there all her life.

Failed miserably

Was hoping to post everyday but already I haven't managed that!

Things have been crazy for the past few days as all of a sudden more & more people are becoming interested in my jewellery which has got me so excited I can't sit still.

As you know I'm in the learning phase of blogging so my pages may be a little boring to start with but I hope to get some piccies up soon (not sure if I'll be brave enough to post any of me though)

New to this

Been hearing about blogs for a long time now and never really understood what they were about so thought it was about time I took a look-see.

I'm looking forward to sharing my thoughts with you and will be attempting to post here on a daily basis.

Now I really need to be getting ready for work or I'm going to hit the rush hour traffic (one of my many bug bares, you'll get to know about all my others over the next few weeks I expect!)

Thanks for reading will be back later.
