I think the title of this pretty much sums up what this post is about! Etsy told us (how these folk know I don't know) that burnt orange was going to be popular this summer so it would be a little silly not to make a few bits of jewellery in this seasons colours. I... Continue Reading →
Polymer Clay Lace
I made these some time ago but never got around to blogging them (mainly because I'm pretty rubbish at blogging at the moment!) My aim was to give the impression of a delicate lace pattern but in polymer clay. I figured that using black for the 'lace' and translucent to support the pattern was the... Continue Reading →
Sparkly Right Angle Weave Bracelet
Happy Wednesday. I thought I'd quickly share a bracelet I finished today. The truth of the matter is that this little bracelet sat unfinished on my self for a good few months. I fell out with it and I'm not sure why because once I finally sat to finish today it was easy and relaxing. It... Continue Reading →
Beads, Beads and More Beads
I'm back from my holiday in the lovely Cornwall and I've missed my blog as much as I miss my own bed and my craft desk. I took my watercolour paints with me but I didn't really get a chance to play so I have nothing to show at the minute but I did visit one... Continue Reading →

Fimo Jewellery Part 2
Here are the last of my most recent Fimo makes. They were all hand made by rolling and shaping polymer clay (in this case Fimo). I used a cocktail stick for adding detail. Happy crafting. Hannah

Beaded Watch

The Matubo seed beads are new to me and are absolutely gorgeous. This watch is definitely for me to keep as I... Continue Reading →
Pretty Birds
As you may remember I wrote about my shopping trip with my sister to a bead shop. Well, whilst I was there I totally fell in love with these gorgeous bird connectors and purple and yellow flowers. I kept the necklaces very simple as I didn't want to over shadow such lovely beads. My Mum... Continue Reading →
Sisters, Shopping and Sparkly beads
The joy of having a sister living so close (by close I mean just across the road!) is girly shopping days. We are both busy and lead different lives but make a point of finding time for us to go out together and relax. We had one of these shopping days last week and after... Continue Reading →
