Hi

There's a tagging frenzy going on...................Thank you Kara, she's such a real sweetie...............I've been tagged again!

I know I promised to be a better blogger but how time slips by without me realising, scary really.

I've been making a commission which I seriously thought I'd bitten off more than I could chew, I'll post some pictures later on Flickr, but its worked out ok and customer is thrilled with it.............so she has ordered another one with a matching bracelet AND she has ordered some pieces as a wholesale order for her beauty salon. I am thrilled, for those of you who have followed me this year will know that my DH has had a rubbish year being made redundant in January and laid off from 4 more jobs, its fair to say we are struggling financially and this order means we will be able to buy the boys a nice Christmas prezzie, YAY :o) Lets hope I'm not tempted to spend it all on lampwork beads, Izzy of Flame & Glass, Caroline of Crafted Gems, Julie of Lush Lampwork and Claire of Rowenberry have been busy and every visit to Flickr is enough to make a girl very poor!

So, back to this tagging game, hmmmmmmmmmmmmm could there be anything interesting left about me to tell you guys.............

Gonna ponder this for a day or so.............its too early in the morning..............Its my day off, could have had a lay in..............................

Anyhow, I've a wonderful day of being creative planned, no housework (although house is looking a bit messy) and will post pics up on Flickr later, of the jewellery not my messy house hahahaha.

I've a feeling I'm gonna read this back later and regret making a post so early in the morning while still in my pyjamas and dressing gown..............think I might of rambled a bit so if I have I apologise!

Gottcha!

This is a little different for me, its delicate, most know I quite like to make chunky designs but had the briolette and decided to throw caution to the wind and try to wrap it neatly without popping the top off.........................I now have two sad little briolettes with no top and I just can't bring myself to throw them away :( Still was quite pleased with the outcome!

An apology is needed me thinks....................I realised that I haven't blogged for nearly a month {{holds hand out for smacking}} no excuse, no grovelling, I promise to be BETTER!

Tagged, not once but 3 times, WOW, cheers guys..........Brandi of Caties Blue, Lesley of Coburg Crafts, Lesley, nice to meet you, and lastly but not least the lovely Janine of Cherished Trinkets ;)

The 'tagging' rules are as follows:

1. Link to your tagger and list these rules on your blog.
2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post by including links to their blogs.
4. Let them know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blogs.

So, I guess you wanna know 7 facts about me...............gosh.....can you hear my brain working..........

1. I could quite fancy Peter Jones of The Dragons Den, he's definitely quite fanciable. Other fanciable guys I could seriously go for: David Bowie, Christian Bale, hmmmmmmmm, Christian Bale, sorry........ Robert Carlyle, Ralph Fiennes, Gary Cole, Richard Hammond and my old doctor, hahahaha.

2. Ok, a serious one now..........I was anorexic until my mid thirties, bulimic into my forties and am now just plain over weight with food issues.......... Its one of the reasons my jewellery making career came about!

3. If I could pick any car I'd have a lime green beetle, an old one that's been restored, oh I'd love one and I'd love it even more if I could have a big yellow flower painted on the roof!

4. I love socks..........funky, brightly coloured socks, stripy socks, I have a drawer stuffed full of em and some are really old and almost thread bare but I can't bear to throw em out.

5. I've been burgled once, on News Years Eve 1991, its a devastating feeling. It wasn't what was taken but the whole "someone faceless has been in my home", the burglar left muddy footprints all over (he had really really big feet) and for months afterwards anyone who knocked at the door I would scrutinize their feet. After that the house never felt like home for me and ultimately we moved........oddly enough some years after we heard that the house had been broken into again.

6. I'm not a gadget girl (no naughty sniggers here please), just not interested in technology at all............I can just about use a computer, I have no desire to be anymore computer literate than I am now, my mobile is ancient but so long as I can text on it thats fine BUT I love my ipod, cannot image life without it.......AND I'm getting a bit twitchy coz the battery is getting dodgy (its an oldish ipod).

7. I've been told that I have a wicked sense of humour and can laugh till I cry when my husband falls over...........I try to be all concerned for his safety but just don't carry it off!

Phewwwwwwwwwwww...........deep breathe............that took me ages!

Now, I'm supposed to tag 7 of my friends but on doing the blog rounds all my closest buddies have been tagged already by you lot! So, I'm going to ponder this and pick my victims as I don't want to waste this opportunity to GETCHA! ;)

Night guys xxx
