Moving onto new things..

I've just finished my fifth week at 'bead school' - Birmingham Institute of Art and Design and am loving it! I'm finally making something other than 'Costume jewellery' - I even do things like solder and sawing! Photos soon to follow, but here's a little something that I made at a party I ran for eight 11year old's the other week, more fimo I'm afraid! Inspired by my bosses love for her rabbit, Daisy, shes made of purple glitter Fimo with added googly eyes!

simple stringing :)

 These pearls are my pride and joy, gained from passing my Physics AS Level. Strung simply on sterling silver beading wire with Silver findings too

 The 'Smurf' necklace was created when my sister was dressing up as, you guessed it, a smurf, and naturally needed some accessories to accompany it. Technically linking, not stringing though.

These two are from a new range of lampwork beads we got in the shop, and they make fabulous strung bracelets

Its not technically wearable but hey!

First attempt at using glass paint, not too bad i don't think! Can you tell that i want to travel... :)

"Women are meant to be loved, not understood"

The wisest words ever spoke about women, uttered by a gay man, oh the irony. Apologies for photo quality

Afternoon tea :)

I am British after all!

I know I say awkard too much...

Everybody needs a turtle for those awkward moments! This one got stolen though, as if! :(

owls :)

It was supposed to be a willow branch, but it resembled dog poo so i added an owl and now it works! :)
