The colour of joy......

Hello my lovelies =)  Last night I made this treasury & the thought behind it was warm sunshine.  We had lovely warm sunshine on Saturday.  I'm sure I once read that orange is the colour of joy, I'll have to read up on that later, but I've loved using it in my children's wardrobes and it seemed to be the perfect colour for me to use for this treasury =)


These are a vibrant zesty pair of earrings I've made, I think this colour is gorgeous =)

Add a little colour to your day...

 These little cuties are made of Czech glass briolettes and sterling silver wire.   I do love gemstones but these are lovely and not as delicate to work with as some stones like apatite which can be quite brittle and break if the hole has been placed too near the top of the bead, especially when your working with wire.

I have gemstone earrings similar to these and if your simply wanting a pair of earrings for the style and colour, rather then any special properties you might get with gemstones, these are great =)

Macrame...


 It's been a long time since I've made a Macrame bracelet and I came across Irish waxed linen thread when I was looking at some beads in a online shop.  To be honest I'm not sure if I'll be making these to sell, as I haven't worked out how much I'd have to charge and buying the Irish linen threads costs about double the price in the UK compared to the USA.  But being a World of Warcraft player (when I have time) I loved the idea of using linen thread, if you play the game that will make sense to you =)

The P.T.A Give Mummy Funny Looks



Here's a treasury I made way back last year, which was Favorited on twitter today.  Alas most of the items are now gone, but I thought I'd share it on my blog any way as I had fun making it and you can maybe still use it to find these featured shops if you'd like to =)

Enjoy =)
