Beads Glorious Beads......


Well I haven't been able to resist buying beads, so here's some eye candy for the jewellery / bead/ aholic's out there =) 
 
I try to always have a wide colour selection of beads to work with, which is easier to do with the glass beads compared to the semi precious stone's, as in having a selection in a certain cut/ style/ size of bead in the same price range, which is not always possible with gemstones as the price can vary a lot more and some stones are more delicate then others or not found often in larger sizes.
I'll admit that when I bought these beads I was thinking of WoW (World of Warcraft) which is a game where you collect all types of materials to make things as well as fighting dragons,  the smaller beads look to me as if they were made of little pieces of molten lava=)
I love this colour, it's gorgeous!
These beads make me think of blended ice coffee =)

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 =)
