I can be soooo stupid its unbelieveable really!!


Hi everyone, well what can I say I am a total idiot, I had to withdraw my entry for the GBUK because i am thick and did not read the rules properly and showed the cuff!! I was sooo annoyed with myself and it has really taught me a lesson to slow down and read things, instead of rushing in!! Luckily they have extended the entry date and I now have time to try and submit a totally new peice secretly this time!!!!



Above is my Mad Spot!!! lol

Anyway I have also decided to slow things down a bit, taking time to enjoy my beads rather than actively trying to sell, so I have put my Misi, Etsy, Folksey and Ebay all on hold and I am only going to concentrate on my website from now on, when I have the time. I mean I have a job and the girls, pets and Hubby to look after and feel like I have been overdoing things a bit.

Sooo to cheer myself up I had a bit of an internet shop and bought lots of lovely glass pearl beads and with all the beads now not listed I have been eyeing up ideas to make some jewellery just for fun!!

so far have made these beads
into this necklace










And with this necklace too










I plan to get some shed time at the weekend and want to try the tut in Beads and Beyond magazine that Sally Carver has done, I never have been able to master round implusion beads, so wish me luck!!!!

Happy weekend to you all xxxx
