Where's my jewellery making mojo gone?

Not sure what's happened but I'm in a bit of a slump, I sit down at my desk, stare at the beads, play with them for a bit but dont actually make anything. I think my jewellery making mojo has popped off on its summer holiday. Perhaps its a way of telling me to take a break, obviously I must oblige so am off to spend the evening in front the tele with a glass of yummy vino.

In other new though, I just quickly wanted to blog about this fab shop I found on Folksy... I am just about to purchase a headphone tin for my MP3 player headphones, I keep them in my handbag so they are with me at all times but they keep getting tangled. Hopefully this very worthwhile purchase will sort them out :-)

Folksy Shop - She Draws - Headphone Tin

Toodles for now.

Look what I received this morning….

…gemstones galore! I knew they would be arriving at some point but I hadn’t registered how many strings of beads I had actually ordered. Aren’t these just beautiful?! I can’t wait to start making some pieces with them and have dozens of ideas floating around my head.

Gardening Bits and Bobs

My boyfriend and I have a very small patio garden and until this year I havent bothered to do anything with it. Now though I have all sorts of things potted up including some butternut squash plants (in grow bags) and some tumbling tom tomatos in a hanging basket as well as lovely flowering beauties. This morning I decided I wanted to try and grow some potatos. You can get some 'late season' varieties that will grow in pots/containers until October or even christmas time (perfect for xmas dinner)... I got mine, in three different varieties from suttons:

Suttons - Potato Planters

I cant wait until they arrive :-)

Bridesmaid Headbands

I am having trouble deciding which headband to ask my bridesmaids to wear at my wedding... I started off by making an 'Full' ivory coloured glass pearl headband...

and then another idea popped in my head and I made a pearl and crystal headband....

and then I had another idea for a flower headband...

Now I am stuck with three gorgeous bands to choose from, what do you guys think? I am leaning towards the pearl and crystal band but am still not sure! Serves me right for trying to be too creative!

I am definitely thinking of adding all three to my website, I have some more ideas as well so expect a hair accessories range soon :-)
