I fear that my blog has become a little bit a case of 'here is what I made and, oh look, it's listed on Etsy'. I never wanted my blog to come across as a selling page and continued with it as a way to show some of the process and discuss any problems or... Continue Reading →
A few week ago I was asked again by Beads Direct to design a piece of jewellery and write a tutorial for their website. I was required to use beads from their new stock.
