Well you'll never guess what!


Yes...... it's raining! But we have had some lovely sunny days in between. This is what the heavy rain did last year to our river, that's a bridge under there somewhere!
For those that pop in and have a peek at this blog from time to time will notice that I've got a fancy brand new banner, thanks to a very talented lady whom I've never met but regard as a friend, and one day we will meet if we can get some of the other 'beadies' to join us in a beading retreat of some sort and at some place close to us all. One day........... So thanks once again Amanda, I love the banner, well done.

The sun is shining for me and my man.....

I've just recently made some jewellery just for me. I prefer to wear gold although I do mix and match from time to time. These pieces I'll be wearing for the first time at a wedding next month, now I have to look for an outfit to match my jewellery!
And it's roast lunch time again very soon, only I won't be cooking it! Too busy doing other things like this very pretty embellished button, and there's more in the pipe line. That's a miniature cup and saucer by the way, not a huge great button!

Oh I'm still chuffed about this......

With two weeks to go before entries had to be in, I decided 'yes I would have another go'! So started whipping up a couple of entries without a clue as to what I was making and they just sort of grew. Strange how that happens! And lo and behold, not one but the two of them got a prize. So yes 'I'm still chuffed about this'. And a shopping I shall go very soon. Thank you Beadaholic.
