13th December - Firstly I want to apologise for being so slack in updating this page. Things have been very hectic around here lately and Christmas will be here before we know it. I have had many people enquiring about workshops and rest assured our new workshop schedule will be out by early January (if not earlier). There will be Precious Metal Clay for beginners and intermediates, Chainmaille for all levels and some more beading and polymer clay workshops. If you have anything you would like to see offered, please let me know. I also have some new jewellery listed and have just received a batch of Czech glass which should make it in store sometime this week - keep an eye out there are some cute little bell and trumpet flowers!!
21st November - Most of the new stock has now been added to the store. More arriving in the next week. Workshops are booking fast - if you're interested, get in now before spots fill.

 There are some fantastic new Krafty Lady moulds - great for Christmas presents - make buttons, tree decorations etc etc. Also some new blanks including hair blanks, rings, ear studs.....the list goes on. Have a browse......you never know what you may find!15th November - Well, the Bead Expo is well and truly over - thank you to those of you who came and visited me. It was lovely to put so many faces to names. For those of you that attended my workshops I hope you had a much fun as I did. I had two great groups of students who reminded me of why I enjoy teaching so much.
A huge thank you to my wonderful 'helpers' too, Karen, Bron and Lesley, I couldn't have done it without you so...thanks!!
As far as the unpacking and updating of the website goes, I'm getting there slowly but surely. Everything is almost unpacked - just need to tidy up the studio cupboards a bit but hey, out of sight out of mind
 . I have done a whole lot of orders and re-stocks which are due to arrive sometime in the next week, so keep an eye out as there will be a lot of new stock arriving. I'll endeavour to get it up on the website asap. If there is something you are looking for and can't seem to find it please send me an email - I may have it on order or it just hasn't made it onto the site yet.
Workshops are in full swing, we had another one today with the talented Melita Gillett. If you are interested in attending workshops, please book early as they are getting rather popular!
  6th November - We are currently exhibiting at the Melbourne Bead Expo. I am trying to update stock levels as frequently as possible but your patience is appreciated. If you make an order which contains items that are out of stock - we will contact you to advise you of this and see if you still wish to go ahead with the order. Any out of stock items will be replenished within the next few weeks (1-4 weeks depending on lines). Thankyou!
31st October - Krafty Lady Art Moulds have arrived! These moulds are fantastic. There is such a great range of designs (if you have something in mind that we don't have, please just ask and we will get it in for you) and the best thing is that they contain their own mould release.....so easy to use! Plus, as an added bonus, they are Australia made and owned.
