Have been busy beading again ... quite a nice change to paper crafting. This is another commission I received from a bride whose wedding colours are going to be apricot and apple green. She has already collected it and by the looks of it she is quite pleased with it, which is a great relief for yours truly. Its the same bride for whom I did the 40x wedding invitations in the same colour combo, a few weeks back. She has also collected the invitations ... so for me its another one done and dusted.
AN AWARD A big thank you to Helen who has awarded me with this award. You can find Helen's blog here. I am required to share 10 honest facts about myself & tag my followers, so please feel free to join in. Just leave me a comment & let me know!
So here's the 10 random facts about yours truly:
- A bit of a perfectionist in certain areas of my life ... no skewness for me.
- I wear a size 7,5 to 8 shoe ... well grounded I would say.
- A neat freak ... an uncluttered home feeds an uncluttered mind.
- Have done 5 major 5 to 7-day backpacking hikes in South Africa i.e. Swellendam, Otter, Fish River Canyon, Outeniqua & Tsitsikamma.
- Have been married to the same gorgeous man for 25 years on 30 November 2009.
- Have climbed the highest peak in the Northern Drakensberg, South Africa i.e. Cleft peak in 11 hours.
- Took up yoga classes for the first time in 2009.
- Seeing a dietitian for the first time in 2009.
- Seriously organised
- Quite shy.
I am tagging the following blog friends to reveal a bit of themselves:
- Libby from Inspired Life
- Lynette from A Work in Progress
- Kath from Kath's Blog
- Glee from Gleefully Done
- Samantha from Sam's Scraps

ReplyDeleteWow Desire the jewellery is amazing...you are very talented...I would love to bead but dare not even learn or my little bit of scrappy time will have to be shared with another hobby LOL! Thanks for rising to my challenge so quickly! I am certainly not like you with the hiking...but in a lot of other ways...I also hate mess & love order...and am as perfectionist as I can be...although with 4 kids I have had to learn to temper that trait...glad you have bigger feet than me..I am a 7! I am also quite shy would you believe?! When I am out & about with people I can't bear the loudmouths...
