oh my goodness.....


:: Its taken everything i have to keep my mouth shut.

:: I could casually tell you that i have some things featured in this months issue of Better Homes and Gardens magazine.


..... and leave it at that. My hexagon flower brooches, button braclets and Limited edition necklaces. Instructions and lots of lovely photos.



::But then i wouldn't get to burst into tears again, make my mum cry too and run around screaming like a mad woman with excitement.
So hi if you have arrived here from the magazine things are pretty laid back here, grab a cuppa have a look around:)
love fi
