Less is more!

Just browsing MISI this morning, as you do, and I found this lovely wedding card. Most wedding cards are so 'old' or 'cutesy' but I like this as it is different and just simple. I have not stumbled across this seller before and I am glad I did as I am now going to ask her to make a card for me.

Sun us shining and it is a lovely warm day here in Devizes so I must think of something nice to do today to celebrate. Find the sun tan lotion for a start. We sat outside yesterday for half an hour in the sun having coffee and now I have bright pink forearms!! The rest of me is white though, so not a good look.

So, to celebrate I am going to go downstairs and have a look in my box of beads and make a special 'the sun is shining BLOG GIVEAWAY' and then list it later. I will ask for a name and the best one will receive the ????

Enjoy today and pop by later and leave a name via the COMMENT button.

Beaded Flowers

News of our Bead Group!
My friend and I run a bead group in Devizes, Wiltshire at the Scouts Hall, Southbroom Road.

This month on June 20th we will be concentrating on making little flowers with size 11 seed beads. Jackie has been making these for a while and has some pretty examples. On the day the group will be invited to bring along their own seed beads and choose to follow patterns available on the day. I have read somewhere that this is called French Beading but I am probably wrong. I read a lot on beading...

For anyone who is new to beading there will be, as always, a good selection of seed beads, needles and threads for sale. If you are local to Devizes we would love for you to come along and meet all of the lovely and friendly members of the group.

Oh, I almost forgot...There is a plentiful supply of tea, coffee and nice biscuits too. Cost of the group is £5 per session.

Look What I Have Found!

Don't worry, no more 'Australia'

I have been up since a loo break at 4.30 (ahhhhhhh!) looking on the web for crystals for my new angel charms and popped onto Folksy for a look.

I am on there too and I like to watch and learn.

I found this absolutely fabulous brooch made by Posh Plushies. I have done some fine stitching in my time and so appreciate the work that has gone into this lovely brooch. The other items she has are just as beautiful and make me want to reach for my PayPal button. In fact I may just do that as it is Winter in Oz and this would look great on my daughter's black coat......whoops, sorry said I would not mention Australia!
