Further entries

I have at last had time to add to my blog. With the very sad news of my husband passing away, I am now slowly getting back to a normal routine.

Having had my family with me has been a great help, although there has been a lot of "bossing" I guess in my present state I I do need something like that.

I have not been near my studio and I am really missing my torch, I will be glad to get back there.

Encased florals

These beads are called encased florals because I have encased flowers
