OK, so today I'm back at my desk and dealing with the 4 weeks worth of emails and post that's threatening to take over. So obviously I'm dealing with it by surfing the net- like all good procrastinators do!

I've found lots of lovely stuff to look at and thought you might be interested in some of it:

First and foremost the excellent travel blog by Umbreen - how we miss her at bead group!

Lisa Galibardy's fabulous funky jewellery
I'm trying to narrow down my selection, I think I've got it down to the silver stag, black unicorn and rain man necklaces- but the list frequently changes!

A very interesting thread on the subject of giving away free content
Although focused on comics/ blogs it relate well to the world of beadwork and designers in other areas.

Gwen Fisher's article on 'Inspiration from an octahedron'
As a fan of geometric beadwork I found this fascinating.

Tatty Devine
Always fabulous jewellery. Just a few of my favourites are:
Horse and carriage necklace
Dinosaur necklace
Lady and dog brooch
Price ticket brooch
Swing girl necklace (especially appropriate now I'm doing trapeze- she even has my pony-tail!)
Trapeze necklace

The jewellery on Hannah Zakari and if you look carefully you'll find yet another tempting stag pendant!

Cowgirl Curios for lots of bits and bobs you didn't know you couldn't live without until you see them.

Have fun looking at the links and at some point I'll update my blog to fill out the missing two weeks and let you know what I've been up to!
