Ive also spent an absolute fortune yesterday from Sanctuary beads and myvintagecharms :eek:.

I can so relate to that, but have just been beaten hands down by my other half, last Saturday I received a huge parcel that I wasn't expecting, it was a jewellery designer's entire collection of beads and findings, I had noticed it on a forum and had a look at the litsing on Ebay, and casually mentioned it. Later that day, it had gone on a BIN for £300, so I fogrot all about it.

Till the lot turned up last week :eek: :j I couldn't believe that he had bought it for me, such a sweetie, so have spent all week sorting through it, counting etc so that it can go into my inventory, (I have valued it at around £800) just gotta start selling some stuff now!

Still, I have a 2 day event in a fortnight, and I am the only crafter, never mind the only jeweller there, so hopefully that should pull in some rocking sales!

Oh wow Jo you lucky thing. You must have been like a kid in a sweet shop sorting through all that.



tattooed - i think the price is fine, perhaps even too cheap for sterling. Don't lurk, keep posting.

I have been making with buttons and adding it all to my website this afternoon. I really need to work on my pictures though, can't get them bright enough that I am happy with the standard.

Tattooed - I agree with Yukki!
Jo_F - does your OH have a brother? :rotfl: - lucky you.

Hi, love your bracelet :T dont go back into lurkdom please, the more the merrier here. I also think £15 is fine. You have to make sure you cover your costs, time a nd a little extra for any overheads.

My teapots and dolls house stuff are made out of Fimo (polymer clay)

Wow Jo you have a wonderful OH.

Yukki I keep having a look at your stuff on facebook as it comes up, I love your owl tags.
I went through 3 different cameras (OH, my mums etc) until I found one that took good photos. I take mine in Macro mode as they are so small. Turns out our Toshiba HD video camera takes great still shots and it has a brill light on it. My stuff has sold so much better with decent pics. Now they are so clear though you can see fingerprints or any flaws lol.

Just back from my class at Bedazzle. Today's project was a 30's inspired necklace made on 3 strands of tigertail. My first attempt was a disaster, but Lisa was very patient and I restrung it, with a result I was happy with. It's approx 22" long. Apols for the blurry picture.









I made this for a friend who wears vintage clothes. Her favourite colours are red and black. I think it will be a nice surprise for her, as she is going through a bad time with a very poorly Dad just now.
