bits and pieces

I'm currently waiting for new materials to arrive.

I spent time this weekend sorting beads, cleaning old pieces and breaking things up to make new designs. It's very time consuming but quite satisfying. Nothing like a bit of recycling to make you feel virtuous.

Here is what the contents of my 'to do' box looks like. I'm waiting for a brainwave to do something really special with those old silver filigree beads - they have been languishing in a box for 7 years or more.

I could never resist a bargain.
