Up Close – Images From The Create And Craft Show

Thanks for all the lovely comments via the blog, and email (into the show and direct to me) etc, I am glad you liked the show.  6pm is an odd time for a live show as the Freeview airtime stops after the 5pm show.  I think that meant that only the select Sky viewers and those who [...]

Playing with Pellets

I wanted to share with you the Jewellery I made for the last Create and Craft Friendly Plastic show.  Because we sold out of Friendly Plastic Pellets before the end of the show, they did not repeat it during the wee small hours.  Therefore I thought you might like to get a second chance to see [...]

Last Wednesday I spent the day with some very lovely ladies making Love Hearts with Friendly Plastic at the Husqvarna Studio in Nottingham. We had a great time and everyone went home with a number of finished and almost finished pieces of work. Two of the pendants were complete with ribbons and fastenings using my quick [...]
