New event for the craft calender

This week has been unbelievable!!! We have been so busy. I received a call on Monday asking if we would be interested in providing a craft marquee for the North Cambrigeshire show. We have been frantically trying to get costings together so that we can advertise for crafters and update the website. We have had a great response so far we are really looking forward to running this one. Can't wait!!!

New Bangles

Now our first fair as organisers has been and gone we can finally calm down a bit on the organising front and I can get back to making jewellery for a while. The fair went really well we had a reasonable turnout of customers and I think most of the crafters were happy. We are planning our next one soon but for now a bit of jewellery time. I have my first two day event in 4 weeks at Potton, Bedfordshire where I will be selling my handcrafted jewellery. These are a couple of pictures of some wire wrapped bangles I have just finished. These have been very popular in the past so I have extended the range of gemstones.

I have also made these bangles in Tiger eye, African Jade, Russian Jade, Lavender Quartz and Rose Quartz. This week end I want to try out some new designs for bangles and pendants so all being well I will list the pictures over the weekend.

Day one blogg one

Introductions first, I'm Jo and this is my new blogg. I am closing in on the big 40 with two teenage monsters to my name. One living on her own 300 miles away, always on the phone with one problem or another but I love her to bits. The other still at home, this one a boy child never tidies anything up and always after a cash handout but also much loved. I have a wonderful fiance (got engage in January). I work full time in the boring hum drum day job. I love making silver jewellery which I sell through my website and at craft fairs. New for this year, I thought I would take the hassle out of looking for good fairs to attend, so set up my new venture running my own fairs with the help of the afore mentioned fiance. As you can see I don't get a lot of free time and I am going greyer by the day. But life is for living and if I didn't do all these things I would just be bored wouldn't I.
