Midnight

I've listed a new item on my Etsy page:



Midnight earrings - $5.00

Measuring approx. 55mm in length, including the earring hooks, these earrings are for pierced ears, and are made with silver plated earring hooks.

These elegant earrings are made using black coloured shell discs, silver metal discs, round white glass beads and cubed black glass beads.

These earrings are both elegant and unusual, and make an ideal gift, whether for a birthday, Christmas, special occasion or just because!

Snow day...

I woke up this morning to find that a blanket of heavy snow (the worst for 20 years) had fallen during the night. This was bad for travel, but meant a day off work! That and I made a giant snowman!

I saw these bikes when I walked into town, and they show just how bad it was! It is meant to get worse tonight, and then there is a frost forecast which means the whole of the south east of England will be one giant ice-rink...

Happy New Year

Wow, it's 2009 already! I can't quite believe it. Hopefully this year will be better than the last :)

Well, I've been making bracelets for my sister, and I thought that I'd post some photos of the process (but I sort of forgot to take them...). Here is a photo of the before shot.


I used round-nosed pliers, side cutter pliers, some head pins and purple glass cube beads from this lovely bead shop at the top of town. Here is the after photo:


I'm watching 'The Holiday' on DVD at the moment- Mum got a new projector and has hooked it up to the laptop. It's ;ike a cinema in here at the moment :)
