Chocolate & Gold Wrap Bracelet
Whilst on holiday this year I found a shop which sold a lot of wrap bracelets. I thought they were lovely but quite expensive so decided to attempt to make one when I got home. To make the bracelet I have used 4mm gold glass beads, brown leather cord, 1 button and fireline to thread […]
Vintage Hair Tie
This black Goodies hair tie was very plain and needed a little more style. I wrapped a portion of the hair tie with beautiful pastel blue glass beads, white Japanese seeded beads, and to add a little colour I put antique coloured plated metal bead caps around the glass beads.

Bluesy Lampwork Pendant
These lampwork beads were the first in my series of two-two beads featuring an opaque half and a transparent half of the same color.
