Lil' old Me

Walsall, West Midlands, United Kingdom
I am a full-time working mum who works shifts with a son Richard aged 19 and a daughter Emma aged 16. I have been married to my lovely Husband Paul for 21 years. My passion in life, besides my family, is papercrafting, especially cardmaking, although I "dabble" in scrapbooking. I have now started making jewellery and found another addiction :) I have been cardmaking since 2006. I am also a bit of a tigger freak!
I am proud to be a Design Team Member for both Crafters Companion and Beaders Companion and I am now a Demonstrator for Crafters Companion

Beading Friends Forever - March Challenge

Well our first challenge was a fantabulous success and all the DT are thrilled with how many entries we had for the theme and tutorial challenge for February at BEADING FRIENDS FOREVER.

This month we again have a theme and a tutorial.  The theme is:-

FAVOURITE COLOURS

Here is my project - a cellini spiral using shades of blue 4mm pearls and grey silver lined size 11 seed beads. I also made a pair of earrings to match.


The tutorial this month is from the super talented Kelly from Off the Beaded Path who has some brilliant and easy to follow tutorials on You Tube and she has given us permission to use her Double Spiral Tutorial.


Here is my bracelet made with black size 8 seed beads for the core, silver and white size 11 seed beads, 4mm Jet AB bicones and 4mm flat facetted beads.



Hope you join us again this month.
