Hot Reds

We've had a glut of 4mm soft-faceted beads... so every now and then, we make some little bracelets that we sell inexpensively - they're fun and pretty too. It's turned out to be a brilliant way of practising new designs and stitches, using up these beads... and if we really love a design, then we'll transfer the idea to using other beads.

Red & Blue

"L" and her RAW "hugs'n'kisses" bracelets... she just loves making them! She chose deep christmas reds, and also icy winter blues for these designs...

Tuts Royal Blue

 "S" made this simple lace necklace with crystal hilights... and the colours just reminded her of Tutankhamen's mask...

The pattern may have been inspired by a Sandra D.Halpenny design.

So, So Busy!

It's all fair and good sitting here creating... but at some point we just have to stop (Waaa!) and write out the list.... THE list. The price list.  That's easy for anyone who's written down all their ins and outs of jewellery making. Unfortunately, we here at Elandesse aren't so organised. First, there was the new printer to contend with. Somebody (mention no names... "S"!!!) swore a LOT because after two hours she still hadn't got a Wireless Cloud (whatever that is *lol*), but at least the printer was working enough to print out photographs of all our products for a pricing book.

This all has to be done NOW, as we have bookings within the next week and a half and we have to know our stuff.

BUT...

we have been creating too.

This was originally going to be called "Barbie threw up in a bubblegum candy store"... bit of a mouthful though, so it has now been named "Bubblegum Barbie". It's so wonderfully 'in your face' and is guaranteed to make you smile when you wear it. More to show, so keep reading...

Bead Happy!
