I spent most of the day yesterday relisting all the extra stuff I had leftover on Etsy, Folksy and on the website. Currently, there is no purchase system on my website, but if you want to purchase something that way, you can email my address, katie@twinklyspangle.com with the name of the items you wish to purchase, and I'll send you a paypal invoice.

Some fabulous new things I have listed recently:
I love these new designs! The bracelet is a one-off at the moment, I may make a cherry and tangerine version at some point, if I can hunt down some more round red beads with a teeny hole in the middle.

Another breakthrough this week, I finally, finally hunted down some vintage lucite swallow cabs to make these fabulous earrings:


I only have a small batch though, so snap up your pair here in dollars or here in sterling.
My little man started walking recently, and he is all over the place now! I can't leave him for a single second. He is so interested in stuff, and loves dogs and balloons. I love seeing his little personality developing. Right now, he is slumped over alsleep in his high chair, with a big bit of toast stuffed halfway in his mouth. I love that little ratbag <3.>

Internet Outage & New Designs

Uurgg! My bloody internet connection has been crap this week so although I have been taking photos and creating gorgeous new pieces, as well as working on a huge wholesale order, I haven't been able to upload anything to Flickr or Etsy :(

So, this is a bit of a meaty update.

Firstly, I made a whole batch of 'Meadow' bracelets.


Here are a bunch of the charms I have made for each of the bracelets. Each bracelet takes 15 flowery charms to create, so I had to do over a 100 of these to create the amount of bracelets that I was trying to!

And here is a snap of some of the completed bracelets! I ended up making 8 of them, because I ran out of the flower beads, which are from Hong Kong, so I'll need to order some more pretty soon (I hope!)

You can read more about how I made these bracelet on my Flickr photostream, plus see some more lovely colourful snaps of them! You can purchase one in my Etsy shop for a reduced price right now, as I really need to see how popular they are before the launch of my website on September 1st. Click here to purchase yours!

So after all that, I had a bunch of these left:

Which are the pieces I cut off the end of the headpins that wasn't needed. So I wracked my brains for something I could do with these bits. I added a couple of beads to each, and curled the end: And basically, I made this cute, nu-rave coloured set!
I was really happy with how this turned out, and although this colour combo will be a one-off, I might do it again in a different colourway!
So, I think that is probably about it. I'm off to the Harvester now, I just adore their lovely Salad Cart and Lemon and Herb chicken - yum, my belly is totally rumbling right now. I'd love to know what you think of my newest jewellery, it's always nice to receive comments on posts. I know people are reading because I can see on my stats, so make yourself heard!
EDIT:
Stupid Harvester have changed their menu! They no longer do the bloody chicken that I love so, I had to make do with some yucky pasta, it was rank and bland. Down with menu changes!
