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!)

Black Glitter

This is the bracelet and earring set I made for my friend Asgad's birthday, which I think totally suits her personality; glamorous in her own way!

Thank You

The bracelet I made as a thank you to my mentor, Paula, for being so good to me during my time working with her.

Happy Mother's Day

A wee pic of the bracelet and earring set I made for my mum for Mother's Day.  Pink may not be her favourite colour, but it's not like I could make her yet another yellow one!

We're Plastic But We Still Have Fun!

A few of my plastic and elastic bracelets I made recently.  I can't choose a favourite, but can you?

Blueberry Kisses


Disco Heaven


Rainbow Sunset


China Girl

I've had all the components for this and been dying to make something with them, but didn't know what, until today when I got the owl and combined the lot to make this oriental themed bookmark!

Forever Flutters

The earrings I made for my cousin Chantelle.

Zulu Warrior

This is the kumihimo bracelet I made my cousin Dom for his birthday.  He liked it, so what do you think?
