Jewellery

I'm finding it hard to photograph my jewellery, cards are easy because you just need to display the front. But these 3d pieces are stumping me, the photo's always look slighty help. Think I'll have to rope in some photogenius friends to help.

I love making marbled jewellery, chunky pieces shot with bright colours, like the ones above from a previous market... any tips on good photos people?

Crafty market

Fabulous venue in the food Co-op I can't wait for lunch there in one of the stalls. Come along and check it out. 20% discount if you mention the blog.

I'm Still totally wrecked

from last weekend, god I'm getting old when it takes a week to recover. Well the Creative Heart fair was fantastic... so much fun and a fabulous buzz I so hope it will happen again. And!!! even better we raised €700 for the Irish Sudden Death in the young support group... A wonderful woman in a fantastic purple coat took home Heavenly abyss (which I decided to name my pink/blue painting from previous post) and I genuinely believe she will give it a good home.

Met lots of lovely people interested in my art and jewellery... made some pocket money too which helps with the "have to buy a house of my own before my daughter does" fund. Hmm won't start with the single mum/ mortgage complaints thing its too solemn....

Today I'm...

beading, got a big box of beads just calling to me, I've been collecting them for the last year but lately with the Creative Heart Fair inspiring me I've decided to do something. I adore beaded bracelets I wear them everyday, sometimes strings and strings adorn my arm... My new favourites are these marbled beads, there so pretty and modern... I'm mixing and matching them with Pearls.
