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...

Tidying Up or This?

In my world THIS will win every time! I started out with very good intentions of tidying up my making table today. It is in a mess. And no I have no intention of taking a photo to show you my mess! It was going very well... Found a few orphan beads and pearls, a cab I thought I had lost, bits of wire... Actually it was LOTS of bits of wire. I cut it too short, or bend it the wrong way, or it gets kinks I don't need so I put it aside on my board for doing something at a later date. So I made these earrings. Tidying up is soooo over-rated!

Iritis - Bah

I've had an interesting couple of weeks with my old mate Iritis paying a visit. It's really not welcome any time but this visit was particularly obnoxious. Not because of the pain (I am on strong pain killers for the AS!) but the medication that goes with it and the timing! As you all know the Spring Craft Fair was on 16 May. Well the Thursday before the big day Iritis flared up, Friday was spent running around GPs and Hospital. The Eye clinic messed up the appointment and I had to go to A&E to be seen. Not my favourite place! Anyway the good doctor immediately said yes it is Iritis and here are the pupil dilating drops you must use twice a day along with the steroid treatment. The steroids are fine, but the pupil dilating eye drops blur the vision. Couldn't read, Couldn't make jewellery, couldn't see anything clearly! The timing was particularly bad because I had spent so much time working on organising the craft fair and not enough on my own Jewellery! I...
