My Wire Art Bra for Breast Cancer Awareness

I can't show you my Bra until 18 May but this might tempt you to come and have a look? Stamford Arts Centre, 18 May, 10 AM to 4 PM. Head for the Arts Centre stage and you will see all the bras exhibited!
Yes my Art Bra is ready :-) and I am very proud of what I have created! Now ALL I want is that it helps to raise some money for Cancer Research UK.

I really hope people of Stamford will visit our craft fair on 18 May and see how much work has gone into making these beautiful pieces to raise awareness for Cancer Research, especially Breast Cancer. All the participants in this challenge have done this in our working time, used the same raw materials we use for our work for sale and worked with the same dedication we put into creating each piece of work we produce to show you.

A lot of creative thinking has gone into each piece and your support is all we ask for. If you can make a small donation please do, if not just come and have a look and let us know what you think. If this project can raise awareness and some money for Cancer then we would have achieved what we set out to do with our first Artisans for Charity project.

Soup's On! And its Tasty!

Actually it is  Delicious! Just have a look at what my Beadsoup partner Susan has sent me! M is the word... MAGNIFICENT! It is an amazing selection of beads, ribbons & cords and not one, not two but FOUR different Focal pieces to play with. The hand-etched copper clasp is just amazing. And her generosity in the amount of beads she has sent is quite humbling. I don't think I sent her enough! But she says she likes it and I am eagerly looking forward to seeing what she creates from it. Just look at what I have to play with, so many different colours and media! Read what Susan thinks of my soup. And now I can reveal the soup I sent too! It includes: - A selection of pearl and shell beads in Yellow, Orange, Green and Red. - A small selection of Felt beads that I made using the technique felt artisan Eve Marshall taught me. - A selection of pewter and Tibetan Silver beads - Yellow Organza ribbon. - Kumihimo braid made with Chinese silk cord. - Tibetan Si...

Beadsoup Blog Party: Shalini's Soup is Served! Finally!

The chef is a lazy sod but I do hope the servings have been worth waiting for? For a while it was Will she, Won't she, Can She?  Yes she can! :-) I didn't get to use any fancy tools like the torch, saw, drill or add ingredients like solder but I did what I could with the lovely ingredients and I think they did not need any extra embellishments to be honest! The fantastic Bead soup from my partner  Susan McClelland  had enough ingredients in it to just add a bit of wire, a few findings to create this! The main piece! Sari Silk Ribbon, Ceramic Pendant Focal, Hand etched Copper Clasp, handmade glazed ceramic beads and plenty of copper wire. All joined together with my trademark spiral links. YES Fabric! Not really my friend! But it was too beautiful not to use! Thanks for the challenge Susan, I quite enjoyed playing with the sari silk to make it part of the pendant. Tools: My hands, Flat and round nose pliers and dodgy eyes....
