The sun's out at last!

Yes, it really is - and we've just made the most of it by eating our lunch outside (wearing our coats, but hey, we were still outside!).  To convince myself that Spring is on its way, I've made a little wildflower picture pendant for my lovely Mum in my favourite colour combo of green, purple and white.  I've also completed a seedbeading project by Aster Sadler (www.astersadler.etsy.com)  from Beads & Beyond magazine - it's such a lovely design, it prompted me to have a go (and I had to learn new stitches and all!) - the result is my Nightshade necklace, which I'm wearing right now.  I have to say, her instructions were very clear and easy to follow, which is most important for the seed-bead-challenged like me. :)

Speaking of talented designers, do check out Beth Wilson's website, www.starpixie.co.uk - I love her wirework, in particular the leaves (naturally!), and she's just made the most beautiful silver circlet.  I also aspire to take photographs like hers, although it's not likely to happen any time soon.  I am planning to make myself a light box, and fiddle with my camera settings until I can take something at least a bit better - at the moment, I'm pretty much stuck unless I have bright daylight, and that's a rare enough thing at this time of year!
