Monthly Round Up - April

April Showers

 April was both a sad and yet really exciting month for me.

Sad because I had finally made the decision that it was time to close my bead shop.  I'm sad to see it go after building it up from scratch, but unfortunately my interests have since been drawn elsewhere and I was struggling to keep the business going in the current climate.  I do however still have a lot of beads left over and will need have to have a massive de-stash, if you have any suggestions on the best place to sell my remaining beads please let me know.

Farewell Beads

And exciting because at the end of April also held for me a wonderful surprises trip to New York for my birthday, cunningly deceived  into thinking i was off to Dublin by my husband and friends. I had a fantastic time and I want to go back.

Hello New York

My new Jubilee collection is also now available for purchase both from my Etsy Store and at Things British in Carnaby street, this is a limited edition collection to celebrate what a great year it is for us here in the UK with both the queens Diamond Jubilee and the London Olympics.
