Xmas Crafting Fun

Monday, December 13, 2010


I officially have pretty much no excuse for updating this blog has beeen  now that I've an android phone.  In theory I should be able to update this now from almost anywhere. 

So the last month or so has been about the build up to that dreaded time of year - Xmas, or Yule as I prefer to call it. 

I have found some great beads recently that mean I can try out a few new things.  I found some rounded drop beads which helped me make a few Nepal Flower Bud bracelets.  Then I found some really small triangle shaped beads.  Had no ideas for them when I bought them. When I got home I remembered a tutorial for two drop dutch spiral, that called for an interesting highlight bead.  Perfect!  Now I am recycling watch parts to make steampunk inspired necklaces.

Unfortunately I can't share any pics of my new pieces witg you for now.  I don't want any of my friends and family to read this blog and guess which gift is theirs!  Therefore I will share pics with you once Yule is over.

I have to go now and drink coffee.  Lots of crafting to do today and not much time to do it in.  *crosses fingers* hopefully I will finish this little lot in time for Yule.

I forgot about you bloggy - sorry.

Yeah it's been a while. I'm rubbish at keeping any form of diary for any great length of time. Been ill for a while. I got a head injury at my regular day job, last year, and have been out of crafting action for a while now. I plan to try and blog about all those crafty things I have been and am currently doing. It has been a loong day today so I shall leave this blog writing shenanigans until tomorrow, when I should, in theory be refreshed. In theory :P
