Happy New Year everyone!
Oh. It’s already the third week in January you say?
…
Happy third week of 2013 everyone!
Let’s see if I can bring this blog up to date.
In December, I made a *lot* of stock for a craft fair stall in Retford, which my parents very kindly ran. A lot of lampwork jewellery was featured, which was petrifying since my comfort zone is polymer clay, so I was very pleased to find out that pieces actually sold. I realise this is common, nay, even expected at places where, you know, one offers goods for sale, yet nonethless it was very lovely news!
I also had a very limited amount of Chritsmas decorations in polymer clay for sale at Thorseby Art Gallery. They ran a commission-free space for artists to place their decorations for sale, so it’s not as though I got into a juried art show, but it still gave me a little thrill.
The latest of Beads and Beyond has a polymer clay tutorial by me in it, so if you’d like to see how bad I look in pictures, you can check out the Feb 2013 issue.
And now for a picspam of craft fair jewellery:
And here’s cat who has no idea who he is, what’s happening to him, or why he’s here: I call him Bemused Cat.
Bemused cat is utterly adorable! And your lampwork jewelry is beautiful – it’s no surprise they sold!
Thank you! Bemused cat cays thank you too, although he’s not sure what he’s thanking you for anymore
Are you making your own lampwork beads, Hazel? These are very pretty. Kitty is certainly a sweetie!
Thank you Monique
Yes, all the lampwork beads were made by me in my little shedio.
Some really nice jewellery and beads, I like the red and white ones they reminded me of strawberries and cream!!
Thanks for sharing
