Welcome to my blog... I'm going to post some pictures of the things I've been making and record the progress of my venture into the world of crafty commerce.
I've been focusing on making jewellery from recyled beads and these are for sale on a fantastic little stall in Afflecks Palace in Manchester. As well as using recycled materials I make some of my own beads and love nothing more than shopping for new beads. I am also co-producing a recipe book and love baking so have included my baking adventures too.

Spreading beads

Twice yesterday it was necessary for me to talk to strangers...And twice I managed to get into the 5 minute conversations that I like to make jewellery and am selling things at Afflecks etc. I must be very proud of myself. The man in the banks girlfriend liked to craft too but had given up on knitting.. 'noooo' i cried 'tell her not to give up!'

I just found this picture on etsy and look at the things you can make with what looks like a really simple stich. I wish I could show the bankman's girlfriend this item
