Good morning! My morning started really early this morning as I scrambled to finish my last assignment for this semester. I went to bed with a very fuzzy brain last night, and woke up feeling ready to tackle those final edits. Phew, I’m glad it’s done now. Speaking of done – my window display is… Read More
I hope you enjoyed the blue/green studs from last week. Now it’s time to share some more of the necklaces with you! I was really pleased with how these turned out. They are both made with the same beads, but start at different points on the spectrum. I have etched the beads on these necklaces.… Read More
Today it’s so cold here, I’m starting to remember what winter feels like (and I don’t like it at all). So, today I put on my new red boots, and every time I looked at them, I felt happy. Do you have a colour that works like that for you? Or an accessory? For me,… Read More

Nearly there….and then it’s a solid 6 weeks until the next semester starts! I am picturing myself reading some books… Read More
Last week I shared the first set of studs. This week I’m sharing the first of the new necklaces. I have made these beads a bit different from the way I usually make them. I have used two colours, and I love the way this necklace looks, the result is really colourful and interesting. The… Read More
I’ve made some new etched glass bead jewellery, with options! You can choose silver or silk cord. And you can also choose long or shorter earrings. Here are two of the colour ways that I like a lot because you can wear them with lots of different things:
So many things to be happy about! My husband is back from his overseas adventure. We missed him, and we’re so happy he is back. Now things can return to normal around here. I got to go for an actual, real walk this morning! I have been walking on the treadmill for the past 3 weeks,… Read More
