Happy New Year

Happy New Year everybody. I hope 2013 is all that you hope it will be. I've been busy:

• I've opened a Folksy shop. Don't worry, I am not duplicating my one of kind item listings.
• attended a webinar on tax for the self-employed by HMRC. Definately recommend it for others new to self employment.

For Christmas I made some jewellery, surprise, for my Mum. Now I would upload a picture but Blogger isn't letting me at the moment. So watch this space.

I got 2 really good jewellery making books from my sister, that I can recommend.

  The book on the right has sparked off lots of ideas for tiaras and other hair accessories. Whereas the other book is like a beginners guide to wirework, and thats something I want to investigate further. Now that I've mastered Macrame, this will be my next task.



I've put some new items in my Etsy shop, including my first gizmo wire piece, and a green macrame necklace. These are well worth a look.
