I was fortunate to be invited to partake in the US Embassy's Marketplace last Friday where I met lots of lovely people. It was a gorgeous spring day in Canberra, with a light breeze and plenty of sun. It was the end of the week and many staff took advantage of the opportunity to stroll with their families down to see us all, some kids even learning a few hip-hop moves while they were there. A very enjoyable day. I was well-prepared, with lots of new pieces of jewellery to show off and happy to make tailored pieces to suit people's requirements. That's the beauty of making things yourself. Note to self: back up to the lampwork studio soon and make more red beads. I sell more pieces of jewellery containing red beads than everything else combined.
I have always been obsessed with creation and colour. These days I play with glass and fabric as much of the time as I can. The rest is taken up with a little paid architectural work, family and playing with our two cats.
