Hi Everyone
I have just taken a quick 10 minute break to update my blog.
On Saturday will be the last Saturday before Christmas day and my last event of the year. I will be in the Priory grounds in Malvern with Boffy Art Fairs.
Brrrrrrrrr its going to be cold and snow is forecast but at least it will feel like Christmas. Of all the shows with Boffy Art Fairs this is one of my favourites as it does make you feel like it is Christmas. There is always a good feel to the Christmas Arts Market with lots of bantering between the stall holders and the customers.
I have got some even more exciting news as well. I decided to show my artwork to Tiger Arts Gallery in Malvern. Yes….. in my spare time……. what’s that? I paint and draw with pen and ink drawings and modern abstract art canvasses. They loved my work so much that I will actually be having an exhibition of my artwork in the new year some time around Spring. So there was me thinking of having a quiet break in January and now I will be painting and drawing. I am really excited about it and a bit nervous. Never done anything like this before but hey going to give it my best.
Well back to designing more jewellery and if you fancy finnishing off your last minute shopping or in some men’s cases…… starting their Christmas shopping (hee hee hee) come and see me in Malvern on the last shopping Saturday before Christmas.

Hi Everyone
What a busy weekend I have had. The Worcester Victorian Fayre started on Thursday at 4 in the afternoon and it was really festive with carol singing, people drinking mulled wine and eating hot chestnuts. My team and I were also kept busy with all the customers buying my range of jewellery with my bookmarks again being a popular choice of present.
Next Saturday I am going to be in Malvern High Street with the Boffy Art Fair and will be kept busy all this week designing a new range of Swarovski Crystal necklaces and rings as they also went down a storm at the Worcester Victorian Fayre.
Well bye for now as I need to crack on with the designing and if you are out and about next Saturday in Malvern come and say hello.

Hi everyone
If you are out and about in Worcester this coming Friday and Saturday come and say hello. Boffy Art Fair will be in Worcester High Street.
I have been busy designing a fantastic new range of jewellery especially for men. I will be taking that with me to the art fair.
Tomorrow I will be visiting Cutting Edge in Worcester with more stock and to say hello to the stylists and if I get chance later on in the week I will be going to say hi to everyone at Fusion.
It is the sprout season now and Fusion have a wonderful Sprout Cake – yes you heard me right – can’t wait to try it. They also have a fantastic sprout fritter as a starter. My friends have tried the cake and the fritters and love it but I haven’t had chance yet. Even if you do not like sprouts the cake and the fritters will convert you.
Well off again now as going to chill before early night to bed. All this designing is very exhausting – but I would not have it any other way.
Bye for now.

Hi Everyone
Well I have had hardly any time to think let alone make jewellery. At the weekend I was in Worcester High Street with the Boffy Art Fair and was kept really busy. I was that busy on Saturday that I ran out of business cards and had to phone for some more from hubby who had to bring them in!
On Monday I picked up the remaining handmade bookmarks from a lady called Liz who belongs to a book club that had a meeting the previous week. Thanks Liz for selling so many bookmarks for me. I hope you and your friends enjoy using them!!!
Today I have been to Unity in Evesham to drop off the prom hair pins and some bracelets to include ones that men wear. They have gone down a storm and the girls from Unity have also given me some ideas for future designs. Surfer necklaces coming up!!!
I then quickly came home and made 3 more turquoise necklaces in readiness for the Spring Garden Show in Malvern before having to pick up my daughter to go to Birmingham Children’s Hospitol for a routine check on her heart. Her brother had dialated cardiomyopathy 4 years ago and she has to be checked every 18 months to see that she is ok as it is something that can run in the family. For those of you that know what DC is I am very lucky. My son made a full recovery and he is now 6 years old.
The people that work in the hospitol are fantastic but the hospitol itself is horrible and I hate going. Somebody get rid of the child’s voice in the lift telling you when you get to ground floor, level 1 or 2. She is so sad when she speaks and it always gives me the shivers.
Back to more cheerful things. Tomorrow I am meeting up with a mate of mine for chill time in the morning. I will then be coming back home and making more turquoise necklaces. They sold really well last year and I had none left. Knowing my luck I will be left with all of them this year.
On Friday I will be prepping for the weekend. I am again with the Boffy Art Fair but in Malvern High Street on Saturday and Bewdley on Sunday and Monday. If you are around please come and visit us as there are a few new artists and craft people that have joined us and their work is fantastic.
Well I’m off now – I should be putting the kids to bed and it is already 10 mins past their bedtime.

Hi everyone.
I thought I would let you all know that I am now going to be in Worcester High Street on Sunday as well as Saturday for the Boffy Art Fair. I love being at these fairs as it is like a big family. The creative talent is out of this world and I have to shut my eyes to stop from coming home with all the goodies that you can purchase.
Tonight has been spent sorting out what I am going to take. Tomorrow I will carry on making rings, more semi-precious turquoise necklaces, bookmarks, window charms and angel brooches.
If I get chance I will also make some sterling silver beadalon contemporary necklaces with the Swarovski Crystal. I have had the most fantastic pendants in teardrop, triangle and doughnuts arrive in colours that have hues of deep blue, sky blue and purple depending on how the light hits them. I am looking at these necklaces being my key pieces for the Spring Garden Show. That is if I haven’t already sold them!!!
Well time to get some beauty sleep. I am going to need it with the amount of art fairs I have got over the next 3 weeks. Mind you the makeup is what does the magic!! Ha Ha.
