Virginia Water Art Society Exhibition

Well this is me at the Summer Exhibition we had some wonderful weather and the exhibition was very successful lost of paintings were sold and lots of jewellery

Creativity gone Mad

Well my creative juices are running over I've taken up jewellery making. My daughters bought me a jewellery making kit, beads tools etc. so I started to dabble and hay presto I'm hooked. I started to explore the Internet for beads etc. and came across a couple of sites in China selling metal beads I liked the look of them so ordered a few, I was pleased with them when they arrived and made one or two nice bracelets and earrings etc. Then I discovered metal bashing wow now that was good, so I asked my dad if he still had his metal work tools and promptly commandeered them. twisting the wire and then thumping the hell out of it is quite therapeutic. Joking aside some of the designs I got from my daughters craft work book are really quite pretty. So for the last month or so I have been beavering away and took myself of to hobby craft fantastic place ! fantastic place to spend a fortune and I did! Well I hope I can recoup some of my expenses next weekend at the Virginia Water Open Air exhibition otherwise this hobby will turn out to be just as expensive as my painting hobby!!
