Easter's Over....But not with us!

Good Brrrrrr Cold Tuesday Morning,

Well the Easter long weekend is over for many of you and I feel for you having to go back to work :(
I am luckily off work until 15.03.13 but I still work from home by being a full-time mum, part-time cleaner, full-time chef and part-time Jewellery Designer/Maker/Marketer.....

I am eagerly awaiting my beads from the US of A but I also need to purchase findings and some more beads from the UK but my computer says 'no'!

When my new and Vintage beads arrive (along with other purchases hopefully) I am going to be working with Gold Plated findings and components for the first time!

When I started Jewellery Making in 2010 I only ever worked with Silver Plate or Tibetan Silver (when I think back to my first designs and makes I cringe with embarrassment). Only of this year I started making with Copper and Bronze as after a bad year of 2012 my Jewellery Making got put to the back of everything family, working 2 jobs (one of which I hated) and then when Christmas came and went I wanted to make 2013 different and my year - so I came across http://smittenbeads.co.uk/ and my Jewellery Designs just completely changed - my confidence grew, I met a great group of Jewellery Designers and Artisans through Smitten's Facebook Group and I have re-kindled my love and passion for my Jewellery Making Designs :)

Anyhoo after my wee ramble their (went off the rails a bit their hee hee) I will go back to what I was originally on about - Gold Findings!

Yes so I will be making my next range of Jewellery using a mix of New and Vintage Beads along with other Artisans beads and Gold Plated Findings for the first time ever!
Well it is officially Summer here in the UK now, not that you would know it as it is still freezing and occasionally snowing!

Right as I am on my Easter holibobs until 15.03.13 my 15% off coupon code RELAXWITHEGGS over at my Etsy Shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/QJewelleryDesigns is still valid this can also be used on my Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Q-Jewellery-Designs-By-Emma-Quinn/221196564691830 and for a limited time only and via my Facebook Page only I am also offering FREE UK POSTAGE!

I am off now to see what my boys are getting up-to upstairs, it usually involves tipping every single toy and cuddly out and me tidying it away - not this time lads I am on my way.....

It's Easter Saturday.....

I am off work for 2 whole weeks and it feels like bliss....I am awaiting the arrival of some gorgeous Vintage and New beads from Reduction Nation in the USA so I am hoping that they arrive whilst I am off.

I also ordered a very pretty and cute ceramic Cottage bead, a Bracelet ceramic connector bar and a couple of ceramic beads from the very talented http://www.etsy.com/shop/Bohulleybeads
