In amongst all my other work and travels this weekend I have been busy beading.

I managed to turn my first ever Rivoli Roses piece, made back in April, into a double-sided pendant using a lovely Green Sphinx rivoli. Doesn't it look completely different from the two I showed you the other day.

I have also been working on my second Jaipur Jewels piece and am really loving how the colours are working. I'm still debating what fringe or ending I will add to this piece and will wait to decide until I get there.

Here's another picture from my childhood. I have always loved the colours in this one and was pleased to find it. I am the girl with the plait and the baby with the fat cheeks and mohawk grew up to be this girl.
