Haha that got your attention. I am thrilled, delighted, over the moon to have my first published design. I have known for some time that Beads and Beyond planned to publish it but didn't quite believe it until I saw it for myself. I submitted the following ranges and they chose to go with the middle one which is Jade.

The same principles and techniques can be used to amazing effect by changing the beads used. The picture below shows an example made by Celia of Jencel .

Kits are available exclusively from Jencel to make this version which uses Glass Pearls and Fire Polished beads. Click here to go directly to the kits

I have been creating some new necklaces using a range of glass beads which is quite a change for me as you know I work predominantly with Semi Precious stones and gemstones. What I love is the vast array of colours, shapes and shades available in glass. Here are a few of them which I have listed on my site today and as the sun's been shining and birds are singing and I am full of the joys of spring I am offering £5 off if you spend £20 or more from my website - the offer runs from now until April 16th- use the code Spring Fever

I thought i would show you how the Studio is looking now  as the covered paste tables have been replaced with these lovely shelves - it  makes the space look much more Studio and much less Craft Fair .
