Hi all! Just thought I'd post some piccies of some pieces I've been making as Xmas pressies for family.

First up is a lentil bead for my aunt. It has a littli CZ embedded on one side.

Next are some freshwater pearls I strung for my Gran. Not perfect but my first attempt so I'm quite happy.

Then we have an inverted roundmaille bracelet for my mum with a fine silver toggle. I've engraved "Love, Fi x" on the back.

Couple more to come.

Sorry about the photos - took them on my camera phone.

Next up are a couple of Czezh firepolish and sterling silver stretch bracelets. These are for my 2 sister in laws and have three charms attached with the names of their kids on them.

Finally - I was on the other week about hammering PMC. Here's the star I made. In the end I didnt hammer (wasn't brave enough). I textured before with the end of a make-up brush! Think it looks ok.

Thanks everyone!!! :snowman: This is the first Christmas since I started making jewellery so odds on as the years go by they'll get sick of getting jewellery as pressies soon enough!!

lol same here! I've not made any for about 8 years so for a lot of people it's the first time I've made them anything.
