    errrr.inspiration? another cup of tea?
    lol-ok i'm working on it!

    Nicki if you're about-when I order my new boxes i'll have some old (brand new) ones going? dont know if you are advertising items as coming in your own specific packaging on your site but if not you are welcome to them if you want them. Most of them are the silver ones with ribbon in a cross shape with a bow on the lid with a white insert. Let me know if your interested and I can post them to you. If you are sticking to your own packaging dont feel obliged!!

    Thanks you two :). I'll talk to my boyfriend about the computer later and see what he says. I've just done a pinecone survey so that's another £4 for the shopping... I can't believe how sunny it is, I'm getting blinded in the living room...

    Get making mm! I haven't been able to make complete things as I'm still waiting for supplies, but I have been attaching the beads ready for the cabs to arrive. Could do with some more chain soon though... Am going to try and buy some more bits now, then get back to making. I'm not advertising my jewellery with specific boxes, so if you let me know what you have left when the time comes and we can talk about it :).

    yep ive just had a P****c**e survey too :-)

    I dont want anything for the boxes Nicki so if you want them there yours theres about 8 large necklace boxes and a few pendant/bracelet boxes. Will let you know when I order/recieve my new packaging coz then I can use the box/bag they come in to send the others to you :-)
    Right after the distraction of the survey I'm going to have some dinner and then get making! Need 2 bracelet to complete 2 sets,a pendant,2 pairs of earrings and then some bridesmaids sets of just plain pearls or crystals on a chain.
    Oh b**gg** just realised I need to order some more Swarovski teardrops

    Thanks mm, that's really nice of you, but I want to give you something even if it is just the postage. It's a shame you can't wear the metals I use or I could have made you something in return. Never mind!

    I'm aware that this probably sounds really sad, but some filigrees I ordered from the US have just arrived and they are so gorgeous I really can't wait to start making stuff with them. I'm so happy at the moment lol. Can I ask were you buy your teardrops from? I've been looking for some myself.

    My Swarovski teardrops are from here http://www.noseksjustgems.com/Swarovski/Teardrop-Pendant/c-1-385-493/

    They are excellent, reasonable delivery and stuff usually turns up in 2 days-sometimes next day!

    Afteroon wendz :). Thanks for the link mm, I'll have a look now. I found 10 swarovski clear crystal pears for £1.50 with free P&P, I really want them but they aren't drilled and I can't find setting the right size for them :(. I'm not really a wire wrapper so looks like I'll have to pass on them. We probably are both a bit sad :o.
