First of all, good news. Remember these earrings (bottom of the post)? Well Jean loved them and they are going to be in a future issue of Bead! I’m so excited : )
This is a bracelet I made over the weekend. I’m really pleased with it, partly because I’ve had these pink beads for some time and not really known what to do with them. They’re that strange shade of pink that I find really hard to match with other colours, but I put some copper next to them and wow! I have some left over so I think I’ll make a matching necklace. Watch this space ; )

Oh dear. So it’s true. There is such a thing as too much beading. See, I overdid it while I was recuperating last week and gave myself a right pain in the shoulder! So I decided to have a rest for a while and it’s getting better. I can’t survive without doing something crafty though, so I did some sketching instead. I’m quite pleased with my drawings but I always seem to leave them half finished so I’m reluctant to show them to the world at the moment! Instead, here’s some earrings I made last week…..
