Beadathon...my contribution!..;)

Hellooooo I'm back..;o)

Helloooo...I'm back....;o) Okay, so I know it's been more than a while!!

I'm a Nanna..;o))
My baby has had her baby!

Meet Miss Chloe..;o)

Although I had not been making beads, I have been playing with silver.
This is a torque style bangle I made.
I'm really please with how it has turned out..;o)

I have made another oval bangle and a torque style choker....I'll post pics tomorrow.

I am back in the beady swing again though and here are a few of my recent makes..

A different track...

A small selection of beaded bracelets. I intend to use a whole lot more of my own beads with this idea!
So fun and fairly quick to make...the options are quite endless.
I'm going to try some with necklaces and anklets too..;o)

Pure Gold Leaf In The Purest Form!

Okydoky...so still LOVING gold leaf...and I came up with these!...soooo pure and simple...I LOVE them..;o))

And a set of Christmassy Holly leaves...;o)

Some festive colours...

Hi all....;o) So, it's nearly the end of October and the festivities of the fast approaching Christmas season are becoming more apparent! Up at our local Mall yesterday, they were putting up the huts/sheds for the German market stalls...not sure they're just German, but they do have some lovely things!!....well they did a couple of years ago!
And of course the ice rink!...I quite fancy having a go this year!!..with the kids of course!!...;o)

Below are some of the beads I have been making. I'm still LOVING the gold leaf and want to explore some beads and bead sets with this on.

How about the Holly leaves!!...do you like them?..I think they are just fab!..they make me smile..;o) I'd love to make enough leaves and berries to make a glass wreath...maybe not a full sized one, as Christmas may have come and gone by then!..;o)

Still in love with gold leaf!

Okay...so I'm still having a bit of a love affair with gold leaf!!..;o)
Here' I'm going through some of the colours I feel it may look best on!!...some definitely work better than others and I've got more trials to do yet!
I'm hoping to get some good torch time in tomorrow and make up for the lack of it yesterday and today!...

Hi folks...I've been busy photographing, measuring, stringing, listing etc...but here you go...some ready to roll beautiful pure gold leaf beadies and leaves...;o)
I've been having soo much fun playing with the gold leaf!....I've got a whole load to clean and photograph now, in an array of different colours! Pictures later or more likely tomorrow..;o)
