First beads of 2008 . . . . .

. . . . . and yes, they're purple. Swirls of lovely, funky purple on beads which I've shaped into comfy-to-wear tabs. I like the two shades here but I can imagine these working with maybe three or four colours per bead. Any colour combination suggestions will be gratefully received!

Happy New Year to everyone! I hope you had a good Christmas. Mine was pretty quiet, really. Mind you, saying that I managed to travel to Cambridge, London, Oxford and Manchester in the space of about ten days. That's quite a lot of journeying!

Anyway, I'm back into a beadmaking routine now so I'll be back into the blogging swing-of-things too!
