Jewellery making anyone??

Welcome Vix

I would suggest maybe visiting a bead shop, you don't have to buy anything just have a look at whats available and what you like the look of. You could buy some stretchy nylon to begin with and just make simple stretchy bracelets.
I don't have long all is not peaceful here! More later lol but quick question....

I ordered a photo tile for my stepmums birthday, I ordered black and white but the nice lady sent me a colour one too Which do you think looks nicest with his necklace? I can't decide. Ta, cya later x

Sarah - I think the coloured tile looks better with the necklace athough they are both lovely. I've never seen those before - where did you get them from, they are a good idea for pressies and its not far off Fathers Day.

You are all doing very well, and you are selling too. I havent even started to make anything again because May has turned out to be very busy! If I were to do another party it would probably take me a month to get enough stock together. Keep up the good work.

Sarah - I agree with Jo the colour ones goes nicest with the necklace!!! Lovely colours in the necklace - my type of colours!!!!

Yes, I prefer the colour one too, but they are both lovely

I would also love to know where you got them from, as I know my best mate would love one on a bracelet of her son

Thanks x

Well the bookmarks came - took 8 days from the US so not bad. Was pleased with them and have been busy making beaded charms to attach to them. I really like them - very effective and something I wouldn't have made but for someone requesting them!!!





Have now found decorative bookmarks on ebay and have bought 24!!!!

What's everyone else been up to this week????

Millie2008_2

Wow, you have been busy Angie- they are stunning!

I haven't done much as have been working lots, but may have a play tonight

Welcome to this thread!!!!!

Wow lovely pieces - I especially like the rings. Did you use wire for the cuff style bracelet?? Very nice.:T

Justathought - your jewellery is stunning! Certainly puts mine to shame. I love rings but have never been brave enough to do one myself. Yours look fantastic but I wouldnt know where to start and they look quite fiddly.
The necklace and bracelets are lovely too, nice and summery.
