i made these earrings last night to go with the bracelet that i posted a couple of days ago, the lady who bought the bracelet wanted something to go with it and i thought that these would go well, what do you think?

i wrapped wire around the bottom bead which i thought would make them diffenet and unusual, i love the fact that even if i made something using the same beads on 2 things they would never turn out exactly the same, everything is original.

i made this necklace for my nan for mothers day, it is a sea opal drop on ribbon with a toggle clasp,

she likes things to be simple and because she is 86 the toggle clasp means that it is easier for her to put on herself.

i really enjoyed making these it was a way of having my children with me even when i'm not with them plus they had fun putting there fingers in the clay, i have these attatched to a silver pandora necklace which i've been wearing a lot and had great comments about, i also made a heart for a friend with both her childrens fingerprints on, she loves it.

i am making a lot of beaded items at the moment and am loving it, i'll post the next piece i make on here for you all to see.

hello me again, i made this bracelet using wire bead caps and these beautiful beads, they are lovely and have a good weight to them, i wrapped the wire around on itself to make the loops for joining them together,

i find it really theraputic to make things out of bits and bobs in my box,

sometimes my brain goes into idea overload and i have so many ideas going on in my head that i wish i had more time in the day to make everything, i've started to keep a note book now with ideas in so i don't forget,

anyway let me know what you think

hi all, this is my first ever blog, scary

Firstly a bit about me, i started making jewellery when i was 11 and didn't have much success, i didn't know the techniques back then, but now 16 years later i have the knowledge, i make jewellery in my spare time when i'm not looking after my 2 beautiful children (4 and 19 months) or doing the housework, i have a lovely husband who i've been married to for 9 and a half years. We also have a cat called daisy.

i use jewellery making as a calm down in the evenings.

most of the jewellery i make is bead and wire work but after an excellent course with lesley messam i have also taken up art clay silver, which i am really loving.

i have designed my own website burytreasure.synthasite.com which keeps me busy updating it with new pictures, so check that out as well as my blog

anyway i hope you like what i do, if you do then follow my blog and feel free to leave comments
