I’m currently working on a double strand fluorite rosary necklace for a special commission. I adore fluorite and I love making rosaries, so it’s a lovely thing to work on!
First strand pretty much finished tonight:

These shrink plastic Hallween Candy skull earring would have worked out alot better if I hadn’t put the holes so low, the jump rings are too small and won’t reach round #idiot #craftfail

I hate it when I do something like that! Could they turn into keyring/fobs now maybe? Or bag charms perhaps?

Hi there,
They were a present I’m afraid, so dont know.
However, I’ve seen this style quite a lot in other people’s photos, so they can’t be rare, and altho they look old I think they are new.
There are 2 little impressed marks either Japanese, or Chinese on front and back.
Thanks for your comment,my lavender bags have had more comments than anything, and could be the way to go…

Hi there, and sorry if you got this already, but I think I sent the reply to the wrong person!
They were a present, so don’t know I’m afraid. However, I’ve seen the same design in others in people’s photos, so they must be available.
Altho they look old, I reckon they are new. There is a Japanese or Chinese mark to front and back.
Thanks for your comments. Judging by the response, lavender bags are the way to go.
A lovely customer just bought them all!

I am making a sensory play mat that will be offered for sale in my folksy shop. It will be made from hundreds of tiny piece of crochet, all joined together. The idea is for a mat or blanket for babies and children to touch, feel and use their imagination . here is the start of it…only a tiny piece of crochet yet but it will eventually be a mat for the floor …and ha ha…my son pointed out how much this looked like a cockerel lol

Looks beautiful, having had a go I know how much work and sore fingers go into these amazing creations. Can’t wait to see the completed project x
Ive been having a fun time with Day of the Dead stamping. Here is a box of skulls.
I made some rainbow coloured skulls as I was thinking of making LGBT wedding congratulation cards. Should I, or do you think the combo is too niche?

Upcycling a suitcase bed for cats and dogs.
The fabric is vintage Wardle from the 1970s, and originally a pair of curtains.
