You know that saying, "The Devil makes work for idle thumbs"? Well, Ruby and I are both down with the lurgies today. So while James and Daisy have their afternoon jaunt to Daisy's ballet class, followed by a sleep-over at a friends (yes, both of them. James's friend Gareth celebrates his birthday this weekend and he and his wife are having a party incorporating a wine tasting evening, so the girls were going to have a sleep-over with their children while we joined the adults and quaffed some wine), Ruby and are watching DVD's, drinking juice and I also decided to have a play with the banners I use on various online shop fronts and forums. So, gone is the monochrome look, and you'll see above a rather colourful banner incorporating a set of beads I made with topaz and light steel effetre glass. Not sure if I like it, and if it will stay.... but it's here for now.
Here's the set in their full glory!
I have to say, they are one of my favourite sets to date.
I can't believe I haven't been on the torch for almost a month now. Besieged by back ache, and now a cold. Busy week next week too as James is in London, but I'm hoping for torch time on Monday. There are beads to get out!!!

Hi Billie,
Thank you for your comment on my ring 'lollipop'.
I enjoy you new beads and banner too, it's closer to your style of work I think, we see better the beads you create.
Friendly hugs
Thanks folks. I think I like it better too.... So it's here to stay... for a while :-D
(Jeez, posted this reply earlier and then noticed it had James's (my husbands) googlemail details. I must remember to check which one of us is signed into the PC!!)
