Happy 50th Birthday Dawn!!


Do you remember the chunky red necklace I made before? Well my sister loved it so much that she wanted another one in black and silver... So being the good sister that I am, I made it for her birthday.

I'm enjoying making some chunky stuff, it's different for me as I usually make more delicate things. This one is made from black glass beads, silver metal rings and silver coloured palmwood beads. And, in case you go on her blog and think that I've spoilt the surprise by putting it on here as her birthday isn't until Saturday; Well, I've already sent it to her and it didn't take a rocket scientist to work out what it was!! - Oh and if you like cards and card making, check out her blog, she has put some 'blog candy' up for grabs to celebrate the big event. I've entered already, so fingers crossed, I might get lucky!!

Pink earrings


Look at my latest 'make'!! I had some extra beads left after making the pink and gold necklace, so I decided to make some earrings. They are made with pink glass beads and gold coloured palmwood beads with gold plated findings. I really like these earrings and I was really tempted to keep them for myself; but, because they match the necklace, I decided to put them in my shop...never mind, I might just go and make some more for me!
