My creative space - is a mess!

I got out some beads to make some earrings -

but my work desk is a mess!
Never mind - I just made a little space and carried on.
The task of tidying up was too great and I just wanted to make something!

 I have also been supplies shopping today - just a few things, some findings, beading wire and chain.
I love new supplies.

I love the different colours of craft wire -

This and these will become earrings -

I'm joining in with My Creative Space on Village Voices over at kidspot.
Pop on over and have a look!

I've been shopping! - blogtoberfest day 15

....so I went to the Sydney Bead and Gem show.
I had a shopping list....

but I bought a lot of Oooh shinys that were not on my list!

...as you do!

Mainly glass beads and some turquoise-look stones -

More sparkly glass - 

Love these bright graduated stones -

Orange coral, howlite, more bright "smartie" beads, green heat treated stones, amazonite, green stones, moonstone (hard to see) -

 Fire agate, black agate, howlite, blue heat treated stone, blue agate, fluorite, lapiz, orange coral -

Yummy rough-cut rose quartz, amethyst, green kyanite, and natural moonstone -

Plus some hill tribe silver and bits and bobs.
