These are at present on their way to Malvern for the Autumn Show this weekend.
I won't be there but a certain young lady will be.
There's more on Flickr if you're interested.

I'm not quite sure I uploaded these in the most efficient manner.
Can you upload directly from your computer?

Enough of the young thank you very much. I just fell into the next category up for filling in forms and stuff so I'm very firmly middle aged now!

Lesley - I have no idea what you've been fretting about ;)

I really should go and take some pictures shouldn't I!

Look forward to seeing them for real on Friday.

Gorgeous beads - especially the first which is stunning.
To make them smaller you need to add them as attachments
they don't resize if they're in an IMG tag

Thanks everyone. :)

Yes, George, snappity snap! Can you use two hands now?
I sympathise, as I also hate taking pictures and leave it until there's so many to do, and that just makes it worse.

Yes, Jo, they're Pixie Willow.

Thanks for that, Nic. I tried various ways to upload them...........but obviously not that one. :)

Wow, the turquoise necklace is amazing, the twisty bits make it look particularly outstanding and, as an aside, I am also v impressed with your photography skills, my pictures are always fuzzy.

I can't take much credit for the photographs. :)
My pictures were rubbish with my old rubbishy camera but have improved immensely in the last few months with my new Canon IXUS something or other.
I have the camera on the manual setting, use macro and set the white balance to a piece of printer paper.

Those are gorgeous! I love the dangly wires in the first one, and the beads you've chosen are all lovely.

(To upload directly from your computer, use the paperclip icon and you'll get a popup where you can upload a bunch of pictures, then clicking the dropdown part of the paperclip icon will let you place each one in your post, or all at once).

Oh, I was so quick off the mark with those beads, you wouldn't believe it!
You know when you see something and you've just got to have it? :)

Gorgeous designs Lesley with some stunning lampwork - Lorna's beads are rather special. Great photography showing them off well.

Hope the Autumn Fair goes well for you George and the designs from of both you flies off the stand :D

Thanks Kym - as well as me, there's Julie Fountain (who will be demo-ing pretty much constantly), Vicky Prior (morellobeads) and the lovely Nia Clement - who makes some of the most beautiful strung jewellery I can think of. We've got some fab guest artists who we're selling for - including Lesley and Jo Tubb of Gemheaven, so we're hoping for good weather and extravagant punters!

I suspect we'll be OK on the weather ;)

(oh, and we're calling ourselves 'the beads and the birds' - at the very least, it should get a few people to come and have a look!)

ooh, great line up George - some great lampwork artists and some great jewellers who work with lampwork. Along with you and Lesley, Nia's work with the lampies is to die for. I hope that sales will be great, with people encouraged by the gorgeous jewellery to purchase some, or to buy some of the beads to make the jewellery themselves.

I believe the weather is supposed to be kind for the weekend - almost perfect - warm enough for people to go out and about and walk around, but not hot enough for them to want to go to the beach. I've always found the spring and autumn the best trading days because of the weather.

I love the name as well, it's got a great ring to it :D I think it's great when artists work together in groups - helps to share the costs and the work involved and bring a range of different designs to the table.

I want to hear all about it next week!

There's a link in my signature, Em :D but here you go:
Flickr: Elel Jewellery's Photostream (http://www.flickr.com/photos/eleljewellery)

Of the latest 10 pieces, whatever doesn't sell at the show this weekend will be going up for sale on my website.
Unhelpfully, I'll say the prices are similar to other things on my site although I'll happily do mates rates. ;)
Send me a PM if there's anything in particular you're after.
