Doesn't time fly.....

I was working at the Clocktower Market in Greenwich yesterday and had a gentle nudge abut updating my blog more often (hello Stephen *waving*) and I realised it had been more than 2 months since my last entry.

So what have been up to? I'd love to say "sunning in Sardinia" but sadly not this year, after our jaunt to India in January. Lots of things have been happening outside of my jewellery-world with family health, pet health, ceiling problems and the like, that are whole episodes in themselves and I won't bore you with, but they have been a distracting influence. I have continued to make jewellery and make my twice-weekly appearances at my Greenwich markets, but not made it onto the blogger....until now!

This week, I have been making designs with some lovely lampwork beads, handmade in the UK by bead artists.....

These two designs are made with lampwork made by Deborah Dew:



These two are made with organic focals by June Scott:



And finally, these black and white designs made with etched beads by Yvonne Johnson ~ the bracelet and matching earrings were inspired by a recent trip to Dublin and a pint of the black stuff...





I have even taken time this week to update my website so these designs are now included.

I'm now off to try and warm up a little....
