    Default Xmas pressies

    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.
