Sometimes you think you've got beads in a nice colour combination cooking away in the kiln and then you eagerly open the kiln after hours of waiting for the beads to cool and . . . . . . bleurgh! What you thought was going to be lovely light brown and pale blue ends up being insipid yellow and washed-out aqua. Horrid!Aren't these nasty?!
Am I wrong to really like these laura?! I really think you're being too harsh on yourself! They still look gorgeous to me!

well I likes them, don't go smashing them up you crazy perfectionist you;)
ReplyDeleteLaura, these are delicate and lovely! Not bleurgh, and definitely not nasty! They might not be what you expected, but they are very nice! It's a good job we all have different tastes! Lynne x
ReplyDeleteThey look retro, dead 70s if you ask me - don't discount them, I reckon (as with everything else!) they'll last about 3 and a half minutes if you post them!

Janine - no of course you're not wrong to like them. They're just not what I had in mind.
ReplyDeleteBeards(!) - You know I can't help being a crazy perfectionist but I promise I won't smash them up! :o)
Lynne - Yep, just because I don't like them doesn't mean others won't but like I said on the phone to you I find it really hard to sell things that I'm not 100% happy with.
Rach - they are quite retro, aren't they?
I won't sell these on my site but if anyone wants to email me with an offer maybe I'll sell them that way. Just an idea?!

They look all right to me - I'm sure they can be made into something lovely! Bet they don't last the day and will have a new home by tonight.
ReplyDeleteCheers Caroline!
ReplyDeleteWell, the beads have gone. I've traded them for one of Lynne's gorgeous earring kits that I've been ogling for several weeks now. Fab!
