If you've been following the saga of THAT dress, then you'll already know that today was to be the day I passed the verdict on which one of the 7 pieces of jewellery I've made this week that I will wear with the dress for Easter. It's not often that I make so many pieces of jewellery with myself in mind and so choosing one was a task I delegated to a friend who was coming over to the studio today. Unfortunately, we had a last minute change of plans and I'm in the studio on my own. So my plan to model each necklace with THAT dress has also gone out the window but nevertheless, I thought I'd have a little bit of fun with it and have a virtual fashion parade instead. So, cue the upbeat catwalk music and let the fashion parade begin.... Welcome to the Easter Jewels by Mill Lane Studio Jewellery Parade. Fashion experts agree that great jewellery can make an outfit and today, we'll be putting that statement to the test. If you want your jewellery to be noticed in......

I really respect people who work in warehouses picking orders. It's a tough job making sure you get everything right. People expect to get what they ordered, so the pressure is on the pickers to get it right. Very occasionally, and by that I mean RARELY do my orders ever turn up with incorrect items in them. But what do you do when the beads ordered for a class arrive from overseas 4 days before your class and they are not what you ordered? Why, you redesign the project of course! So for tonight's workshop, instead of doing this: or this: you'll be doing this: AND this: or this:  AND this: And all for the same price.  What a bonus: you get to create 2 necklaces instead of 1. Hope you like the new designs!  Happy crafting..... If you can't get enough of My Tutorials and you want even more inspiration,  click here to find my books and printable pdfs...
