Hi everyone,

A couple of friends have recommended this forum to me, and I thought I should say hello. I am a jewellery maker, based in Surrey. I started out about 20 years ago by making very basic earrings; in those days there weren't that many bead suppliers around, unless you wanted wooden pony beads or seed beads.

I like simple designs to show off the beauty of the beads and I get a real kick out of working with precious metals. I work full-time [need to pay the bills!] but as soon as I win the Lottery I'm giving it all up to play wih wire!

Wahey, I hoped you'd come. :X I'm sure you'll like it.

Just ignore Geti or give him a slap.......on second thoughts, he'd probably qiute like that. :D

I'd stay and chat but it's a late dinner for me again tonight.

I have just remembered the name of the shop that started my obsession with all things Jewellery it was in Harborne, Birmingham and it was called Pretty Things, it was filled to the brim with beads, they where everywhere and for a little girl it was like being in one of those traditonal sweet shops probably like what Nic OH owns x:)
