Beautiful Sunflowers

When Chris and I were shopping in town the other weekend we noticed that a massive crowd of sunflowers had been planted in one of the flower beds on Christ's Pieces. I knew that they would look fab when they flowered and I've been really looking forward to seeing them.

Today the sunflowers were in full bloom, standing tall and proud, all facing the sun. They are absolutely beautiful.

There were lots of people taking photos of the sunflowers - they're such a wonderful sight! The bees and other buzzy insects were loving them too.

Excuse the virtual dust sheets

I'm having a bit of a blog and website re-vamp so things might look a bit untidy for a couple of days. It's time for a new colour scheme and a new look. All will be sorted shortly .....

Bead Haiku

Lots and lots of beads

Put them in my shop last night

Now they are all sold

(Thank you to my fabulous customers!)

'Midnight'

These dark blue beads already have a new home but I thought I'd post them here anyway.

I've had such a busy couple of days! I've been making beads like crazy - I added a few more items to my Etsy shop this morning and they were snapped up pretty much straight away. Thanks, you lovely bead-buying people, you! It is such a fab feeling to know that people appreciate my work.

I have some more beads to clean and I'll restock the Etsy shop with those tomorrow night but right now I am off to watch Masterchef. Gregg Wallace seems to have toned down his ridiculous cutlery-sucking behaviour this series. Have you ever seen a man lick a spoon like he does?! Fellow Masterchef viewers - you know what I mean.

Oh my!

I can't believe that the virtual shelves of my Etsy shop are empty.

Thank you to everyone who has made purchases today! I have a few more beads that I will add to the shop either later tonight or tomorrow morning.

Your custom is much appreciated. Thank you.
