6 Months old for Crafter..oo

Well over at Crafter...oo They have nearly reached 6 Months old!!

The Forum is a lovely place to be, with a relaxed informal atmosphere. Do pop in and say hello, you will receive a warm welcome!

I have recently been asked to be an editor for the glass section and I am priviledged to have been asked!!

I have been working on my new glass pendants and have

made a new batch that include the use of fabrics.

Also I have continued with my love of Millefiore and am experimenting with these brooches.

Please feel free to leave comments...They are appreciated either way!! :-)

Secret Santa Goodies

These were my gorgeous goodies from Secret Santa swap on Crafteroo They were made by Hannah aka span1 You can read her blog to see how she created them. She knew I loved rabbits and this little stitched bunny is just fabulous!! My kids have been enjoying the candy canes and my scarf has come in handy now the weather has changed!!!





I made a Millefiori dish for Pennydog and a pendant and a ring that was for her birthday just before Christmas.

I only took a photo of the dish




I also took part in a Secret Santa organised by Uk Craft Forum and I was given these lovely goodies from Mummycupcake. I now am determined to learn how to crochet!!


Hope everyone had a great Christmas and all the best for a super 2009!!!

Another Millefiori Necklace


This one I have just finished and was going to add it to the other, but for reason, I can't, so I thought I would just add to it anyway!!!
The pendant is clear glass with millefiori pieces and the necklace has square millefiori beads.
I can see quite a few of these coming up on my website and folksy etc I just love them.
I am going to be adding rings and bracelets too.

Dichroic Millefiori Necklace


Here is my latest design. I have fallen in love with Millefiori glass in all shapes and forms.
I have made several Pendants, some with Dichroic Glass and some with just the Millefiori pieces.
I wanted to make some necklaces, so I ordered some beads and have made this and am in the middle of making some others.
I hope you like it!

Millefiori Dish


Ok This week I have been over the moon to find Millefiori pieces that are compatible with my other glass. I decided to create this 11.5cm x11.5cm decorative dish.

The Base is a dark Purple and I have used a mixture of red and lime green Millefiori pieces!

Also this week, I got a commission for some peices to be used within wood! I can't wait to the finished results!

Sorry about the lack of blog last week. I have been updating my website and this item is available to purchase!

Halloween next week!!
