a whole day to update my website!

It started with a few tweaks here and there and before I had realised it, I had embarked on a HUGE project.

I was first excited by the addition of a slideshow of images which could be placed at the top of the homepage.  That of course meant I had to go through my images and find ones which stood out aesthetically not images which showed the intricacies of the jewellery to a customer.

Great fun was had with editing suites and my new SMS DOTTY Necklaces became quite artistic - what do you think?

There were also photos which I had had taken professionally and were BEAUTIFUL

Shock, horror - as I was going through the various images, I had been so busy designing that I had forgotten to put them on the website!  So, that was quickly remedied and on the left hand side of the blog is a 'What's New' feature which shows the Sphere Cluster Pendant :-)

Oh yes, and I've also just put a Google +1 icon at the top right of the page - would be great if you could click on it - thanks.

All in all a very busy Friday and now I have to go and dig the garden to lay a new water pipe - oh the joys!

a year to move house???

where on earth has the past year gone?  I notice that I last posted in April last year - which is unbelievable.  Yes, we have moved house and I haven't had a proper studio to work from in all this time but work has still gone on and orders have been made up and sent out.

One such order caught my eye this week and I just had to take photos and share.

The colours were so Spring!  Lime, Orange, Baby Pink and Lilac.  Shown here in Scribblework Plain Bracelets at the back - Sphere Cluster Pendant in the foreground (a new design) and then four pairs of matching earrings complete the picture.  It looked very fresh and vibrant - apparently orange is THE colour for Spring 2013.

I am now going to give myself a challenge to blog at least twice a month for the rest of the year - that is after we have dug the hole for the oil tank...
