WOYWW - A Bit of Beading

By
I'm a bit late to the party today, a trip to the doctors followed by a spot of lunch followed by a visit to my dad's grave to lay some flowers for Easter. It's a very peaceful spot but today it was very cold and blowy - hope my flowers don't blow away!

So I'm back now and ready to do a bit of beading, here's what's on my work desk today


So the necklace hasn't grown much, my joints haven't been too good lately - hence the trip to the drs. Just a couple more inches should do the trick and then I can add the clasp.
Meanwhile I have just received a package of new beads ready to make some sparkly earrings and also a boho bracelet.

Do pop over to Julia's blog The Stamping Ground - it's a fantastic excuse to be nosey and look around a whole host of lovely work desks! Bye for now xx

    I love that necklace, goodness there's some hours of work gone into that. The colour is fabulous, very grown up and elegant. It has been a cold and windy day hasn't it? The temperature has definitely dropped after a beautiful few days last week.

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
