Good news, I finally have my ring sizer mandrel! The lovely Ebay seller I dealt with is sorting the ‘missing’ one out with the post office and yesterday sent out another one for me, by special delivery no less : ) So I’m one happy beader, measuring up all those rings I made and adding them to my website.
In the meantime I’ve been busy making some more circular pendants – I’ve become quite addicted to them! They kinda remind me of ferris wheels at the fair : )
My sister took a fancy to this one…..
And I’m keeping this one as a birthday gift for a good friend of mine…..
Can I have a little rant? May 8, 2009

I’m so annoyed! Almost two weeks ago I ordered a ring-sizer stick from a seller on Ebay, I’ve made loads of rings and I’m impatiently waiting to size them so that I can put them for sale on my website. I’ve been in touch with the seller and they told me that they sent it the day I paid for it, so it looks like it’s been stolen lost in the post. I’m not knocking the seller, they’re being really helpful and said they’ll send me a replacement once the PO admit that it’s been theived lost, but at the pace the PO work that could be ages. I know what I’d like to do with it once it arrives…..Lol!

I’m officially addicted to making these rings! It’s fun choosing which colour combination to use next and the slim bands look really great when worn. They’ll be for sale on my website just as soon as my ring sizer arrives so I can figure out what size they all are! I can also make them to order so if want a specific colour and/or size just drop me a line : )
These are some of the larger rings I’ve been making this week. They’re made using seed beads in brick stitch around a central crystal and a right-angle weave for the band. Again, they’ll be on the website very soon!
And lastly here’s pair of earrings I made using the same technique as the rings above. I was listening to Lacuna Coil’s “Spellbound” while I was making them, hence the name. I think it suits them. If they take your fancy you can find them here.
