Learn how to make a beautiful Illusion necklace and pair of earrings with me in Staffordshire Sunday 10th August booking is essential
www.angelasmith.co.uk/event-detail...
Poster advertising my next jewellery making workshop - a pretty illusion necklace and earrings. Sunday August 10th in Gnosall, Staffordshire- 2 -4.30pm . The workshop costs £30. An illusion necklace is a necklace made with beads spaced out on beading wire and fixed in place to give the impression that the beads are floating around the neck - so this necklace is also known as a floating necklace. The necklace in the photo is made in a selection of pink and white glass pearls, but participants will be able to choose from a very large selection of beads in many colours to make their own jewellery

I am just wondering what kind of bead jewellery you want to wear?
I think I have jewellery for every occasion.
Over the years I’ve worn my jewellery to work events, climbing munros and nature walks, concerts & festivals, parties, weddings, funerals, sports events and even to a Royal Garden party

Left: Herring Gull (in Cornwall at the weekend). Right: an article about politics at Glasto banging on about seagulls. The Herring Gull would not self-identify as a seagull & might point out that were there more Herring it wouldn’t have to nick chips at pop concerts.

I am seeing so many posts from fellow crafters & makers saying it is slow atm, and it is - but why? It may be summer, it may be hot but there are still many reasons to buy handmade!
gifts for birthdays, weddings, thank yous, congratulations …..
for holidays
for home and garden
for pets.
etc.
