Hi there everyone and welcome to my blog! My name is Lauren, I'm 19 years old and I live in Glasgow. I'm a blue eyed, blonde haired vegetarian Lady Gaga and Owen Wilson fan. I love more than that, but it would take up more than one page. Well, alright here goes; Memebase, comedy movies, squirrels, ducks, Disney, glitter, Jem and the Holograms, Thunderbirds, Avengers, shopping, arts and crafts, Katy Perry, The Sims 3, Family Guy. I don't think I can breathe after that sentence. I mostly learned how to make jewellery myself, although some of it was taught at a local bead shop, which is my favourite place for a bit of retail therapy. So far I have just been making little practice pieces, gifts, etc, but I hope that someday I will be able to sell some of my work (not the one-of-a-kind stuff, that's for myself, family and friends only). The only things standing in my way is:
1) Not enough creative criticism
2) I have no idea how to tax what you sell online
3) I have very little knowledge of how to sell online
As you can see, help on those would be welcomed! Feel free to look around the blog, leave comments on pieces you like or think could be improved, follow the blog if you like what you see and vote on the poll!

Loadsa love,
Lady Hansel nee Zoolander (had to change it. Owen Wilson beats Ben Stiller this time!)

More bracelets

All the bracelets featured are gifts I made for people.  I reckon the second one down could be a unisex bracelet, as it was designed for a guy.

So Happy I Could Die!

My laptop is finally fixed, thanks to the guys at Laptops Direct!  They replaced the hard drive, and even managed to restore all my files and installed programs to the new one!  It's going to be so much easier to update my blog now, so bear with me for the first few weeks.  I'm still waiting on several items to come in from Hong Kong, which I believe have been lost/stolen in the mail, but they said if they don't come in by today, I was to email them for a replacement, so I have!  Will be back soon with more jewellery, until then,

Au revior!

Marbleous!

I've had some glass marble effect beads for a while, and could not find a project they would work with, until today.  I just used elastic cord with the beads, and tibetan silver charms (top = seashell, bottom = parrot).

Surf's up!

Well, the sun is out where I am (for once!), so I made this, my oceanic necklace inspired by the surfers of California.  I'm in such a summery mood now, want an ice cream, or at least to make ice cream themed jewellery...
