The Day

It was a very good day: I spent this afternoon with my boys at the Merkinch Community Centre. It was 100th anniversary of the International Women's Day and I had a stall with my jewellery amongst other local artists. There were women of over 15 nationalities: Scottish, Polish of course :) , Russian, Slovak, Indian, Romanian, Tahitian, Jordanian... to name but a few. We could enjoy dance shows, cooking demonstrations, the traditional "tweed waulking songs" and beautiful foods from all over the world! It's amazing how many talented women are over there, it's good to get together once in a while to feel and share the passion, love and joy of creativity :)

Lost and found treasure

It doesn't happen very often that I forget my jewellery pieces but I did. Somehow I forgot about 6 pieces and for long time they were were not listed in any of my shops!!! This entire week however I had been making full bead and jewellery inventory and going through all little and bigger boxes I've found my lost treasure. They say "life is a lerning curve" so I've learned my lesson and you can now find in my online shops (Etsy and Blue Almonds) these six beauties :)

Handmade Christmas

I just added ArtFire Handmade Christmas badge to my blog. Are you thinking the same - isn't it too early? It's only the beginning of October, there is still almost two months to go till Christmas!

On the other hand... if you think about that "handmade" aspect then you need also to think about time to make the gifts or time to have them made! I already managed to finish two gifts and started thinking of the next one that needs more - yes, you guessed it - time.

If you like my jewellery I'm more than happy to create unique comission pieces, jewels designed especially for you but I also need the time. So - if you want something very special, that only jewel in the world for for your dearest one (or for yourself!) then order it with me now and it will be finished and ready on time with no distress and hassle. And I will have the time to make my favourite little ginger breads ;)
