Blue and green......

I've been listing jewellery on my Etsy site this week, though I'm going to take new photos for the items. I've ordered some really cool papers in as backgrounds for the photos, so I'm just waiting on those to arrive. These scrapbooking shops have some beautiful papers.
Hubby is still on holidays so we went to Ballarat today to visit some dear friends and had a great time as usual. I'm going to miss these day trips when he goes back to work!
I've included photos today of a necklace I made, though I don't have a name for it yet. Both the beads are handmade, and the main focal bead is wrapped in brass, in fact it is all made with brass. The chain is gorgeous with a fine etching all over.
That's all I've got for now, so until next time.....

I'm back.....


Well I can't say enough how glad I am to be back...... as camping is really not my thing.
I've put up some photos of the trip. We went to the salt lake races at Lake Gairdner in South Aust.. The photos show just  a bit about the salt and the cars etc.
To me this wasn't interesting at all as you'd see the car take off and then never see it again, but to my husband it was a dream come true as he'd always wanted to go there. Now we've been hopefully we won't have to go again for years to come!!! Now it's back to work as usual and I have a market tomorrow. Bye for now.

Holidays....

Well I'm off for the next couple of weeks. We're going to the salt lake races in South Australia. We've never been before so it should be interesting..... still not convinced about this camping thing though!!
I thought I'd leave you with with pics of my little fairy bracelet. They're made with brass components, a lovely detailed fairy charm, and Swarovski beads. I've made them in a couple of different colours including this teal colour, purple, and a dark red. I've also used bee charms. They're very cute with a simple design.
Well I'm off, so I'll talk to you in a couple of weeks and tell you all how it went. Cheers!!
