These little glass bauble charms are super cute and festive too!

Great for Christmas creations but not so Christmassy that you can’t wear them all year long too!

Simply loop them onto hoops or attach to an ear hook....or even a bail for a necklace/pendant. Or you could make a more complex design. The choice is yours.

Now online under Jewellery Supplies > Links, Connectors & Charms (page 4 & 5).

Usually this time of year I’d be gearing up for our Open Weekend.....also known as our Creative Fun Weekend!

It’s always a well attended event with door prizes, a raffle, mini workshops and so much more. We also usually run a collection drive for @sharethedignityaustralia and collate all the items into bags for donation and distribution to those in crisis via Share the Dignity.

Unfortunately due to covid, we haven’t been able to do any of that this year which has also meant that we haven’t been able to collect for Share the Dignity. That hasn’t stopped Mum and I from putting together some bags of our own and I’d you can, I urge you to do the same. Grab a bag and fill it up with sanitary items and basic essentials (and maybe something special too!) then donate it to your local Bunnings.
You can also sponsor a bag online if you can’t get the stores.

I am big believer in spreading the love at Christmas time in whatever way you can and this is just one of the ways we choose to give back each year. It’s a great cause and one that I am proud to support.

We don’t stock a huge amount of beads but when I saw these I knew I had to put them in the store!

They’re sold per strand and there’s around 65 beads per strand. Use them to compliment your handmade earrings, bracelets etc or string them up into a necklace or bracelet on their own. So many options.
Online now!

Gosh I can’t wait until the studio looks like this again....all set up waiting for students to arrive.

I’ve had a lot of enquiries this past week regarding workshops which has been amazing. I’m so excited that so many of you are keen to come and learn and visit the studio.
So I thought I’d better give you an update on what’s happening.

Under the current covid restrictions we are still not able to legally open as we are both a home based business and a creative studio. This may change with the next easing of restrictions but even when that happens we will still be bound by social distancing rules which greatly limits our capacity to run our workshops as we have in the past.

We will definitely be back up and running at some stage. I’ve got no plans to close that part of the business down. However we need to do things legally and safely.

I won’t be taking much time off over the Christmas/New Year period. Likely just the main days with a few days here and there in January. So, as soon as we can run workshops again, we will.
They will need to be in smaller groups which may mean we do shorter workshops but I’ll work out all the details when the time comes.

I’m so excited that you’re all keen to come and learn at the studio and I hope you’ll keep that enthusiasm up for when we can open. I’d love to meet you (or see you again!).

What workshops are you looking forward to?? (Or would like to see run?)

Wow! You guys went crazy for our Advent Calendars.

Wow!
You guys went crazy for our Advent Calendars. The Polymer Clay Makers one sold out in hours.
Thank you so much. I do a happy dance literally every time an order comes through.

As I mentioned in my last post, the idea was to release these back in October and have lots so we didn’t run out (well at least not in hours!) but due to covid and shipping delays etc. I just couldn’t get the stock here and make it happen.

But! We’ve managed to put together 15 more of the Polymer Clay Makers Edition Advent Calendars. I’ll list them online tonight (probably around 7/7.30pm AEDT (sign up for restock notifications and you’ll get an email when they’re up) but they won’t be shipped until this Saturday 21st or next Monday 23rd - we’re just waiting on the stickers for the boxes to arrive. As soon as they do, they’ll be on their way to you.

There are still a few of The Earring Edition Advent Calendars left in store but once they’re gone they’re gone.

Again, thank you SO much for your support. I really do appreciate it.

I’m so excited to be able to release our new Advent Calendars!
They almost didn’t happen this year as, due to covid, I had trouble getting stock. I would have liked to release these a month ago but it was not to be. BUT, they’re here now and ready to go!

There are two different types available.....
• The Earring Edition &
• The Polymer Clay Makers Edition

Very limited numbers of both! They’d make a great gift and we can even send directly to the recipient.

You can find them on the website under the Kits category.

I had so much fun packing them and I hope you enjoy unpacking them even more.
