Firing my imagination

My latest piece, Fiery Heart, is so called because of the bright, tropical-coloured beads I've used in its creation.

Fiery Heart - a beaded suncatcher

Inspiration for the colours used in its design came from a magazine advert for paint. I thought that the combination of brights in the room set just looked so gorgeous together that I needed to use them in my work.

Its so colourful that I almost want to keep it for myself. I won't though - you can buy it now on Folksy - just click the image below:

I spy with my little eye, something beginning with ... S

Is it Sneddonia? Is it Superman? Is it soup?

Nope:

Now do you know what it is? No, Boris doesn't begin with S. Try again, maybe Rosie can help you:

Now you've got it! Here's another one, the lovely Charlotte:

And another one, the glamorous Astrid, who has woven beads into her web:

Talking of webs, how about some cobweb necklaces? Click the image below for some:

Or maybe a cobweb sculpture or two?

These are great actually, because you can also hang your earrings and things from them:
