Sparkle a little bit every day
A wise man whose name I don't know said you should always have something beautiful in sight, even if it's only a daisy in a glass. And I love sparkle. So that's why I believe you should sparkle a little bit every day!
Jewellery is too beautiful to be hidden away until a special occasion. Wear it often and make every day special.
Update November 2025
Instead of trying unsuccessfully to sell jewellery on this website I've decided to turn it into a craft blog instead. Far more useful! Sorry to say though, I still haven't added anything new apart from a paragraph on the About Me page which probably never gets read anyway.
I'm still writing bead patterns and they are now on Amazon and Etsy as well as on my other website (link below). The Amazon patterns are all on Kindle with some also available as paperbacks, and the Etsy patterns are all in the form of a PDF, the same as my website.
I'm currently working on a range of beaded bauble patterns. I thought it would just be a couple and then I could get back to the daisy patterns I was previously working on but I have suddenly found myself really inspired so I'm trying to get as many ideas as I can done before Christmas.
I had previously planned on turning all my Kindle patterns into paperback versions, but they turned out to be much more expensive than I'd have liked (and are about to get even worse due to Amazon price increases) so I have shelved that idea and will instead keep the patterns for full-length books. They will still be available individually on Kindle.
This website will need to take a back seat for a little while longer but it definitely isn't forgotten and I'll be adding lots more to it when I can find a few more hours in the day.
Whenever I have wrapped a bottle like this as a present I'm always being asked how to do it. It doesn't use any ribbon, just wrapping paper and sellotape. Click on the photo below or use the link in the menu on the left.
