Thanks for reading my blog.

I've opened an Etsy Shop!

A while ago I opened an Etsy shop with the intention of selling my beads and hopefully jewellery.

This weekend I've plucked up the courage to sort it out and start selling. It currently only has one set of beads for sale but I'm intending to add more over the next week.

I've put some favourite beads of mine up for sale. They look like this



and, if you should wish to make my year by buying them, they are here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/BumblinBeads

Thank you for reading my blog.

Necklace progress

I've added another section to the necklace I'm making. The photo does not do it justice at all and I can't spend time working out if I can make it look better. The rivolis are very sparkly in real life and you can't tell that from the photo. Maybe the best way to capture crystals would be short video showing some sparkle.

New beaded necklace

I'm working on a new necklace. Here's what I've got so far



It uses Laura McCabe's bezel technique which isn't too hard and looks brilliant.
The rest uses her beaded ring technique. The rivolis look very sparkly and lovely.

Crochet

I've been using this book



To make circles with the idea of sewing them all together to make a scarf.



The book is very nicely laid out.

I'm estimating about a year to make the scarf!

Spiral Rope

My spiral rope is coming along nicely. I've made a tassely bead for one end and want to make the rope long enough to go around my neck twice before I put a tassely bead on the other end. I like the shine of the gold and look forward to wearing it.

Bangle

I made a bangle.




Unfortunately I didn't plan it quite properly and it's a tad big but I like it very much.
