Handmade Monday.. http://www.1stuniquegifts.co.uk/blog/ please pop by Wendy's page and join in with Handmade Monday :)
I mentioned in my previous post that I applied for some local events.. GOOD NEWS.. I got a table at the big event in Chiswick. Chiswick summer Fair im really excited about it. There is so much happening at the fair that its guarenteed to be a great day for all, Raffles, auctions, stilt walkers, firemen, photgraphers, handbag and jewellery stalls, BBQ's and world food, circus workshops, story telling and so much more.... a fantastic day out for everyone. I cant wait :)
With the fair attracting around 3000 people I realise that I need to get busy.

So ive been working hard, working hard to complete custom orders and making a start on items just for the fair.
Ive woken up today with sacks under my eyes lol.. not a pretty sight, but I've made lots of one off items.. here's a few (ive made lots more, which im really happy with but I havent taken the pics yet).
These rosary beads are a custom order, my customer is giving them to her hubby to be as a wedding gift. I made them using onyx beads for the aves and quartz crystals for the Paters.
This set of rosary beads are for my customer to keep for herself, she wanted flower beads so I used these pretty millefliori beads as the aves and quartz crystals as the paters.
My customer was so happy with them that she said she nearly cried when she saw the piccy :) Thats what makes this all so worth while. :)
At christmas I made the first of my male bracelet range, they were more ained at the children as they were customisable with names. this one is aimed at the men. its big chunky and manly lol. Made in the same style as my previous ones with an adjustable strap.
This is one of my one of designs for the Chiswick Summer Fair. I havent made hardly any big chunky statement jewellery so it was lots of fun making this (and lots of others which I need to post soon too)
Another one off, this is a bracelet, but I will be making a necklace to match.
This is made with hermatite round beads and squares and rose quartz chips and round beads and swarvoski crystals in the centre.
Toe rings.. I started a range of these, in lots of different colours :)
SAMEE SUPERNATURAL
Im recommending this page for a few reasons.
1. Because her dolls are so unique and amazing.
2. Because she is very talented.
3. Because I think everyone should pop by her page on Facebook and have a look at her other dolls.
This little fella is a warewolf, her latest creation. her vampires are a hit aswell.
Such amazing detail in the clothes!
And here is one of the vampire dolls!
