'Red Noses'

Lampwork glass beads for Comic Relief

I've made these beads especially for Comic Relief.

I was going to eBay them BUT I am not happy with eBay's insistence that my home address, email address and mobile phone number HAVE TO be displayed on the listing. There are a lot of wrong'uns out there and you can never be too careful ...

Instead, I am selling them here on my blog. All the money I receive for these beads will go directly to Comic Relief and once I have made the donation I will post proof of the financial transaction here.

There are two of these 'Red Noses' sets for sale. Each set consists of eight 13mm diameter enamelled red rounds and eight 9mm diameter black and white donut-shaped spacers. They're just waiting for you to turn them into wearable loveliness.

I'm asking for £20.00 per set including postage to the UK. That resulting £40.00 could buy eight two person mosquito nets which would protect sixteen people from potentially-fatal mosquito bites that spread malaria.

EDIT: BOTH SETS ARE NOW SOLD. THANK YOU.


Round beads, reduced beads and more

These chocolate brown beads are rounder than my usual ones. I haven't got a fancy bead roller or mould so these are shaped with gravity and heat. They're decorated with turquoise polka dots and are teamed with turquoise spacers.

The strand costs £25.00 and is for sale over in the usual place right now.

I've reduced the price of the 'Black & White' sets from £49.00 to £40.00.

I have three strands of these sat in the bead pot on my kitchen window sill and, quite frankly, I'm getting tired of looking at them! They can be found on the Freshly Baked Beads page too.

I'll be back later with some Comic Relief beads. All the money I take for those will be donated to Comic Relief.

I will also be conducting a bead survey and everyone who completes the survey will be entered into a draw to win a set of beads.

Hopefully see you later on for beady shenanigans! 

Have a good Tuesday,
