Bead Soup Blog Party & new earrings

Yey, the partners for the bead soup blog party have been announced, I am super excited about taking part in this, I have missed the deadline to sign up on the previous occasions but loved watching the proceedings and seeing all the lovely things people made. I have already started to put together some bits and bobs but wanted to wait until I found out who my partner was before I decided for certain so Im going to have lots of fun putting the final bits and bobs together in the next few days !

I spent the last couple of days of last week trying to unearth our office (there is actually carpet in there !! and 2 desks!! ) and it is amazing the things you find. As it meant that I didnt spend any time at the torch I made sure to do some glueing and finishing of a few pieces including a new pair of earrings for me.


These hoops I made following the fab tutorial that Diana posted on her blog. They were fun to make so Im raring to make some more now although with only 1 mandrel in this size it might be a little while before I have many ! 

My other work in progress is still not completely ready to share but I can give you a teaser ...


I will have more to show you soon...
