I sometimes make jewellery with glass beads. I “specialise” in dragon bracelets. Happy to take commissions.

it is not about sports. it has never been about sports. it is about banning trans people from public life entirely AT BEST, and at worst, forcing them into situations that will endanger their lives. this is why we don't play along with the "just asking questions" sports bullshit

🚨 BREAKING | Labour is set to impose a sweeping ban on trans people using any "single-sex space".

In EHRC guidance that Labour is set to approve, trans people will be barred from accessing toilets, gyms and changing rooms that match their gender.

Another dragon bracelet. I was commissioned to do a phoenix-themed one, and this combo is what the person liked best.

This old fan art I did in an app called colour touch. Say hello to Sam the septic eye 👀.

My first commission. People seem to like the dragon bracelets the most. I’ve bought a variety of bead colours and started making small segments of scales to test colour combinations—I might start posting those and asking for input.

Bracelet made to look like a dragon with silver dragon head and tail interlocking clasps (the tail hooks through the dragon’s mouth). The body is made of matte glass beads. The underside of the body is emerald green and the scales are various greens, blues, and purples. The bracelet is clasped and in a circle shape on a black background. Bracelet made to look like a dragon with silver dragon head and tail interlocking clasps (the tail hooks through the dragon’s mouth). The body is made of matte glass beads. The underside of the body is emerald green and the scales are various greens, blues, and purples. The bracelet is unclasped and placed in a serpentine shape, with the head at the top. It is also twisted so that the viewer can see the underside of the bracelet as well as the scales in different parts. It is placed against a black background. Bracelet made to look like a dragon with silver dragon head and tail interlocking clasps (the tail hooks through the dragon’s mouth), draped over a pewter female sorceress figurine who is holding up a dragon in her right hand, arm raised above her head, and is holding a crystal ball in her left hand, which is held up by her shoulder. The dragon in her right hand is small and has its wings extended out. The dragon bracelet is draped over the small dragon’s right wing and head, extending diagonally down behind the sorceress’ head to her opposite shoulder, where it drapes back over to the front of her body. The underside of the bracelet is visible only in the segment of the bracelet stretching from the sorceress’s right hand to behind head on its way to her left shoulder—otherwise only the scales and clasps are visible. The dragon bracelet body is made of matte glass beads. The underside of the body is emerald green and the scales are various greens, blues, and purples. The bracelet is unclasped and draped over the figurine as described above. It is positioned with its head hanging down on the figurine’s right side (on the left in the photo) and its tail end is draped over the figurine’s left shoulder. This is all placed on a black tabletop with a cream canvass background.

Another necklace. I really like the colour combination on this one. I need to find another combo to use for another one—this was really fun to make!

My year long IBW colour challenge is all done! And I really like how it’s turned out ☺️ I combined Preciosa PermaLux Matte beads together with sparkly Champagne Miyuki beads and the finished bangle floats beautifully around your wrist!

My first necklace. It was both fun and annoying because each flat spiral is a standalone piece. I was feeling in a cherry blossom-esque mood at the time.
