Florence beads giveaway

I seem to have been in a bit of a winning streak........must unlike me!





These are the wonderful beads I have won from the giveaway by Jo of Jolicious. She was taken to Florence for a birthday treat and bought these and some other beads for herself from Tim James of the Beaded Lily.


I am sure we are both going to have fun making something special with these beads. My favourite keeps changing, I really love the one with the swirl pattern, then the red one feels so Christmasy, but it should really be the pink one today for 'Think Pink' (the photo doesn't really do it justice either as it has a lovely pattern around the side).


Jo was recently lucky to do a Polymer Clay course at the London Jewellery School. If you would like to find out how she got on and see what she made take a look at her blog.


Thanks again Jo for the wonderful beads.

Beautiful bead giveaway

I was very lucky to receive this amazing bead in the post yesterday from Jelveh Designs,

unfortunately, the light has been so bad today that my photos really don't do it justice!

I can't wait to make something lovely for myself with it.



If you have a moment do check out her website where there is lovely beads to feast your eyes on or why not check out her blog where you will be able to hear all about her lampwork bead classes in Turkey. That would be a real dream to join her out there.


Thanks again Jelveh for a wonderful bead.
