Blimey!

Well tis New Years Eve Eve, which just confused me no end (but that s a daily occurrence, in fact I'm normally confused) and I would like to say a big THANK YOU to all of you have either give me ideas, helped me out by product testing or bought something from me!

2012 I will be attempting (please note the attempting part) to start doing craft stalls and the local farmers market, so that should be rather exciting. I also have plans to start making more ornaments along the lines of the dragons,  I have 50 squillion ideas so far, no idea at all if any of them are even possible to make though, fun times! More one off pieces and more dreamcatchers as I have been neglecting them dreadfully.

Also possibly some tutorials on how I make the designs I do, I know there are loads of tutorials to be found on line, but everyone has a favourite way of doing things.

If any of you have anything you would like to see me attempt to make (within reason) please let me know!

Massive love to all of you and I hope your New Year is fabby and marvellous!

2 headed dragon....

Would it be possible? I think it might be, it works on paper, but then so did wings and I still have issues with those. So when I finish off Meebo for Marie I shall indeed be attempting a 2 headed dragon :o If you never ever see it, it means it went horrifically wrong and looked like an extra from a B movie horror film. Although I will probably keep it and call it either Frank or Igor... I think I need to get out more really.

After that it is indeed back to wings, Wings are beginning to be the bane of my life *sigh* they work fine on paper, but when I attach them the draco just goes kersplat to one side. I am now toying with the idea of wire work wings, I have wire, I have a wire jig this should be possible!

Wish me luck!

Yes that is just one of my nutty ideas of what to do with chainmaille when one has noting to do and no orders in to make.

I do have other ideas as well, but I am keeping those a little bit hush hush at the moment as I am still roughing the designs out on graph paper (yes I did find it)!

So many Ideas!

Hello lovely people!

I have so very many ideas whizzing around my head at the moment, it's getting rather cluttered in there really :o
I am just so physically tired at the moment, even the thought of getting up to get my ring boxes is exhausting me.
So instead I am sketching up all my ideas and making notes over everything! I think I doodled all over the phone bill and managed to sort of black out the number to call to pay the bill, um oops >.<.

One of the kazzzzzzillllllions of ideas running rampant through my poor little brain is to make picture frames, i have the design sketched up, I just need to work out how to make it work... oh and get some wood to make the frames as well , cos that may help!

I also want to figure out how to make small inserts of just an initial, so far every design  seems to end up using 50 kabillion rings, I think I may be going drastically wrong somewhere, knowing me I probably did it in feet rather than inches lol, so I shall be playing about with graph paper and pretty coloured pencils as soon as I can find my graph paper and indeed my pencils. I think my house eats all my things *sigh*

Anyway my little lovelies, I am off to find the things I need, which if they aren't in reaching distance it will be back to phone bills and my calligraphy pen ( neither of which are very good for making detailed designs)
Wish me luck!
