Red and Gold Inspiration

Many of you may now know how excited I am about Craft Fairy selling beads and findings. How could I not be as I love all that sparkle soooo much. I have finally uploaded most of them to the web site and now I can get on with a little craft therapy. So to start I've made this bright necklace using big textured pearls and acrylic beads. As they say here in Wales, 'Lush'.

If you feel inspired too you will need the following:

Golden textured pearls. 16mm
Spray Painted Acrylic Beads, Octagon, Crimson, Size: about 25mm 
8mm Golden Color, Iron JumpRings, Closed, Unsoldered, x 100
Golden Iron Eyepins, Size: about 0.7mm thick, 4.0cm long, hole: 2mm approx 100
Tibetan Style Toggle & T Bar Antique Golden, pack of 4 sets
Golden Color, Iron Bead Spacers, 4mm x 100

Rhapsody in blue

Well, here's my latest collage. I went for blue this time.

 

Strangely enough, the blues, rather than looking cold as blue is supposed to do, look clean, fresh and springlike. So, what do you prefer, orange or blue?

Orange Extravaganza

Orange is not usually a colour that inspires me as it isn't a colour that I can wear. However, the day has arrived when I wish that I could wear it as some beard to die for have arrived at Craft Fairy headquarters and I just had to out them together in this collage of colour.

So, now all that I have to do is use this as inspiration for a little crafting. I can't wait.
