cuffs

Yesterday I taught an Art Clay Silver Ring workshop and afterwards I had about an hour to spare before I went to get my hair done so I tried my hand at making wire work cuffs and here is my first attempt - it's not perfect but I'm actually quite proud of it....

Butterflys

I seem to be making lots of rings at the moment, here's my latest creation....

You can find details of how to make it here http://www.spoiltrottenbeads.co.uk/butterfly-ring-537-c.asp

The children and I went pond dipping at Wicken Fen last week and also had a lovely day up at Church Farm, sadly I forgot my camera on both days (how dippy am I?), but we did catch a wonderful Great Crested Newt in our pond dip which had everyone really excited, but I liked the whirrly gig beetles best of all as they whizzed around our tray and were such fun to watch.
