Scotland's Christmas Fair

Many thanks to all customers who purchased from me at the Fair. Also those who have commissioned me to create some jewellery for them. I do hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year.

My jewellery making classes are going well and from the feedback I am getting, everyone is enjoying learning new skills and making up jewellery creations!

The next Beginner's class starts on Monday 1 February, 2010 at 8 pm in the Prestwick Community Centre. Look forward to meeting all those who have already enrolled. If interested please get in touch with me - a few places remaining.

Scotland's Christmas Fair

Busy getting ready for the big event - Glasgow Royal Concert Hall on Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 December. It looks like it will be very busy so I will need to have enough stock for sale. Could be busy on Saturday night too! Here's hoping!

Not at work tomorrow so should be able to get organised.

Looking forward to Christmas and a rest!

Beginner's Jewellery Making - Troon

Due to an unexpected interest in my class I am offering a Beginner's Beading class in Troon on a Tuesday evening starting on 17 November, 2009. Obviously this depends on the numbers but I would hope to run the class in the Community Centre. I am still investigating this possibility.

I will be offering the same class on Monday 16 November, 2009 at 8 pm in the Prestwick Community Centre.

The Beginner's class which is currently running on a Monday night at the Prestwick Community Centre will continue but will be the 'Intermediate' Class. This will start at 6.30 pm till 8.00 pm to allow the second class to start at 8 pm. The centre asks that we stop at 9.30 pm.

More updates to follow . . .

Decided to make a wired flower pendant with gold wire and swarovski crystal centre - still not quite complete but I will 'tweak' it a bit more.

Creating new from old

I have been asked if I restring pearls - the answer is yes. I have been asked to restring pearls and also redesign them by creating a droplet. It is also possible to change the clasp - sometimes restringing may be necessary in order to do this.

I can also take your old pieces of jewellery and beads and redesign these to create a brand new item - earrings, pendant, bracelet.

Sometimes just a simple alteration can breath new life into a piece of treasured jewellery - this allows it to be 'loved again'.
