Sparkle-mania!

I didn't realise how much new stuff I'd made until I went to photograph it today!

Someone saw me wearing these at a meeting, and wanted to buy a pair




The following are all going into my 'June Loons' listings on Folksy, one a day...

I really love these type of corsage brooches, I've made plenty in my time and this is a fine specimen



these glass pearls (no oysters were harmed in the making of this necklace!) were part of a starter kit from Sanctuary Beads on ebay (GREAT ebay store, very nice pliers!)



These can be used as single flowers (as napkin rings, wrapped round a small present, ...lots of uses!) or displayed as a bunch in a vase, but they've also been designed to link as a cheerful daisy chain



I have lots of neon bright acrylic beads and fancied making something pretty with them....

Long time no write... plenty of activity though!

I started this blog meaning to update it at least once a week, and then totally neglected it!

I haven't done much baking lately, everyone I know seems to be on a diet, but have been doing a lot of crafty stuff.

Given my insatiable thirst for craft materials (bought and scavenged to be recycled), I thought I'd better have an outlet, so have sent up an online shop on Folksy. The shop is called Dropscone's tasty beads

Not sold anything yet, but at least I have something to put on my business cards now!
