Having never done anything with beads before I was really looking forward to having a go at one of Traceys kits.
It was a fabulous project to take on holiday with me as it isn't too big for the suitcase and you don't need loads of tools to make it either.
The necklace I made is called Victorian Lace and it is a beautiful shape. Here is my effort:
Now, of course, you need to take a peek at Traceys blog to see how it should be done but I was really pleased with my first ever effort at jewellery making.
Now, low and behold, the Scrapstars cyber crop was last weekend and Bex (Smiffy) did a fantastic bag charm class so I just had to have a go at that too.
Here it is:
I have to say though that the small jump rings were INCREDIBLY small for my "banana fingers" to cope with but I got there in the end.
Talking of the Cyber Crop, I did another class on the Sunday for an ATC so here is a quick peek of that too:
I've been really creative lately but I won't bore you with the whole lot today, I'll upload a bit more tomorrow...........yey!!
Bye for now peeps.
