NEW WEBSITE

My my oh my, starting a new website sounds great, but boy does it take a lot of time to create.
I've just started to create it and there are still so many photo's I have to take etc..... I do have some old pics but looking back at them now, they just don't seem up to scratch.

So a link is what you need isn't it to check it out well I have 2 type in either one it doesn't matter as you will still end up in the same place.

So save it to your favourites list. www.beads-jewelled.co.uk             

or if you prefer   www.beads-jewelled.com

Please let me know what you think, I would love to hear from you.

I also hope to add a gallery of Customer's work from my designs, so if you have brought one of my tutorials then email me your pics beadjewelled@hotmail.com with the subject line "Customer Gallery".

Check back regularly with the website as well - you never know what may have changed!
I'm hosting it through a different company to what I had before and I must say it's so much easier and I can control most things within the pages. This is of course fantastic, but I find myself becoming very critical - which is good. I want the pages to look great.

Well it's 3am as I'm typing this - yes I have been working on the site - though the part I'm working won't be visible to the public for quite a few days yet -and of course I couldn't sleep!!!!

So enjoy your day, evening or whichever part of the 24hr cycle your in..

Happy Beading :)

Websites and Life....

Hi all, I know right it's been such a long time since I wrote anything! Ooopsie.

Well since my last blog I became a Nannie again - number 4 born in November! So I am a Granny of 4 now, man do I feel old.

Anywho....... My website is about to close due to having to renew it and well the funds just aren't there to pay for it at the moment, so in good Kiwi spirit I am looking at freebies or really cheap. Of course the freebies have the hosts name in the title, but that's ok for now.

So I now have accounts with Wix and Moonfruit. Once I have gotten my pages the way I like them the links will of course be posted on my Facebook page.

Check it out! I do have a folder with things for sale on this site and then of course there is my etsy shop as well.

https://www.etsy.com/shop/BeadsJewelled

So all that should be ok for now.

I'm also getting to grips with a Windows 8 - oh what fun this! I also have to transfer quite a few photo's over to the new computer as well, so all this is taking time.

I am working on a couple of things but I'm not allowed to say just yet - all very hush hush you see. BUT
I will be teaching a workshop in March. Medway Beaders will be hosting me in March - more details later. I will be teaching how to make my Chalice - excited I am :)


Well I got to dash now, breakfast is calling and I have to go out in some horrible rain for the day.
Happy Beading..
