    Argh ive just spent another £10 on charms and other bits from Myvintagecharms. its a good job a lot of her stuff was OOS or i would of spent loads more. My oh will kill me if he finds out lol. Im still trying to find my feet but I had a go at making this this last night. -

    Im thinking of taking the butterfly off and just having the 2 rose charms. The yellow rose is handmade and the blue rose cabochan is from my vintage charms (Japan circa 1950's) set into a brass filigree mount. Ive named it English Garden, yes I know im Scottish but with the roses it seemed to fit better lol.

    lovely make,i know how you feel i buy stuff and realize how much i have spent but it is worth it when you see it come together in a lovely piece of unique jewellery

    Was supposed to be getting an early night but decided to use the beads I bought at a car boot a couple of weekends ago and have a stab at making a memory wire bracelet. Its my first attempt so its not perfect I know. At the minute I dont really have any supplies as I havent got enough spare cash to put an order in, but Im hoping to change that in a couple of weeks :D

    Sorry about the condition of the picture, it was taken on my mobile. If anyone has any tips/advice for improving on the make Id really appreciate it :D

    Also I know its an early make but do you think it would be good enough to give as a gift? Its my aunties birthday in a couple of weeks, and shes been really supportive saying if I do start making jewellery and get some stock together she will have a jewellery party etc so I thought it would be quite nice to give her one of my first makes :D

    Oh thank you Newleaf. I just keep looking at it and then looking at other peoples makes and wishing mine looked like that! I think its so hard to judge your own makes.

    I really REALLY want to make a cluster bracelet! Ive been watching tutorials on youtube in preparation. I cant find one for a cluster bracelet though just cluster earrings.

    Does anyone have a link to a tutorial on how to make a cluster bracelet?
