Blissed out

"I like a proper cup of tea in a proper tea cup"

I found some pictures of Victorian tea cups and just fell in love with them - so pretty and delicate and totally unlike me! But I want to be pretty and delicate sometimes so if I can't physically pull it off (too clumsy, always in too much of a hurry) then I can channel a bit of it through these


 

 

 

Up, up in the air

I know, I know - it's been Ages and ages and ages since I've blogged. I'm a bad, bad blogger. the worst. Terrible. I should be struck off the blogging list. forever. and never allowed back. Unless...
I could show you some lovely necklaces I've been making - would that help to redeem myself with you?

I hope so...

This is the first. I got really into vintage imagery recently - particularly victorian. Don't ask me why, but I just couldn't resist this intricate hot air balloon. I printed it onto shrinkable plastic and hung it on a chain and quite frankly, I love it. i love the sense of adventure, the venturing into the unknown and the sheer audacity of the Victorians flying off into the atmosphere, never probably sure whether they'd make it or not. Maybe I want to channel a bit of that!

I think it's a nice length and size too- statementy without being OTT.
