My Beading Diary

The long awaited update on my first attempt at a magazine project! 

My first attempt at using size fifteen beads. (The absolute terror...) 


Oh my, oh my, size 15's are sooo fiddly!!


This is a present for my Mum who enjoys reading this blog. 
(At least I hope she enjoys reading this blog...!)


 So I'm sorry Mother but NO PEEKING!  


(I have put all the pics of my progress after the break...)

Bead Radar - Sterling Silver Sale

Boxes and Busts are offering 30% off their sterling silver chains.

They will not be continuing to sell sterling silver chains and so are 

selling off all remaining stock. 

First come, first served until supplies sell out. 

They are also doing a special deal a day, where they discount a certain item for one day only.

Today there is a deal on white glass pearls.

I have ordered from Boxes and Busts before and they are really helpful and friendly. 

Visit their website

for more details, and to bag yourself a bargain! 

Valentines Day Necklace

It had to be the classic red for this 

Valentines day necklace.

Inspire Me

I think these beads are pretty fabulous.  

They shine so many different colours 

from green to navy blue to purple and brown. 

Peacock colours, with an added drizzle of gold! 

Peacocks are really influencing everything right now.

From Mac make up and their  'Peacocky' collection 

to L.A's lovely  nubar nail polish - shade 'peacock feathers'.

Rose Bud Beads

With Valentines day approaching fast I thought I'd share these pretty rose bud beads with you.


I bought them from Beads Unlimited, along with all the rest of the goodies in my on-line
sales spending spree.

I couldn't resist buying them for a project I have in mind.

Lovely Beads

These lovely beads were part of my post Xmas bead binge!
