Year: 2023

In my happy place today, quietly restocking earrings for my display at T’Arts. Feeling very grateful for having a beautiful place to sell my jewellery. Lots of sale table items have sold, but still a few bargains there 🙃

Working on a top-up at @tartscollective. My next shift is on Saturday. No surprises what colours were the most popular over Christmas! Lots of gin and tonic beads, along with the eternally favourite red. Looking forward to my day in the shop.

I used the murrini from the other day to make some test beads. Some of them turned out OK. I am looking forward to taking my learning from all of this and making some more canes and beads!

I made some murrini! I can’t remember the last time I pulled a cane like this, but gosh, what fun! It ended up being about 65cm long with lots of learning along the way! I am so excited to use these on beads tomorrow and see how they turn out. Then the fun begins as I test all sorts of colour combinations and make more canes. It’s nice to have time to try new things as I work towards an exhibition opportunity which is rapidly approaching.
