Giveaway Winner!

Just drawn my giveaway from the other day and (almost) very excitingly, have made the discovery that I have a programme called Grab on my MacBook which does what it says on the tin, ie it is a screen grab programme! I've only had this computer for 4 years......unfortunately I STILL can't get it to load onto blogger. This is almost certainly my fault as opposed to blogger's or grab's but still....it's rather annoying. 

But anyway, and without further ado, here is the winner......

No. 6 Genea!

Send me your address and I'll get posting :-) Feels rather odd to be sending beads to a bead artist (if you are not familiar with Genea's work then you really should be, she makes the most wonderful, colourful creations!) but I shall do my best to put together a fun and colourful package for Genea. 

A new arrival

Well hello there! I just had to stop by and tell you about the new arrival at my house today. Somebody I've been pretty excited to meet for a week now....a new mannequin! And when I say new, I mean first ever. She's only wee (70cm tall) but she's pretty cute and perfect for me. And she was pretty cheap too :-) always a bonus! Check her out...

A few slightly crappy shots of her, two with a little Maisie bunny behind :-) and one with a new necklace hanging on her. Any name suggestions? She's got fancy French script on her so I'm thinking Nannette, Marie-Claire, Juliette....any suggestions? I do love to name inanimate objects.

On another note, Sunday completely passed me by...oops....it was meant to be my giveaway draw! So I just hopped onto random.org and it came up with 2...Lynsey. Congratulations Lynsey, drop me a line and I will send you a bag of beads post haste! Lynsey came up with the name Calypso for my bracelet which I really like and as well as that, has made me want to watch the Pirates of the Caribbean again :-) Thanks for playing along!
