Spring is just around the corner....

I hope you all had a really good New Year and are now ready for Spring to arrive.
With all the snow we have had over the last few days, we long for those warm spring days to arrive.
Although my garden looked like something from a Fairy Tale, with the snow hanging from the trees, so white and crisp. I am ready for it to now disappear.

I took a walk around the garden this morning and there popping there heads up, were the lovely snowdrops. Who would have thought that such delicate flowers, would survive the weather.
I have been busy over the past few weeks with a commission piece of jewellery, which I will show you when the person in question has received it :)
I have made another pair of Stud earrings, in a lovely opaque Aqua colour. I am also working on another silver pendant.


I hope we have now seen the last of the snow and can look forward to the spring.
I am gradually stocking up my Etsy http://www.etsy.com/shop/ceram60  so do pop by and have a look. Not before time I am also updating my website http://avalonbeads.webs.com
Stay warm and safe, I will write again soon.
