Hope you've had a fun weekend! Jo and I negotiated some foggy motorway to spend the day at the Nottingham Bead Fair yesterday, and had a brilliant time catching up and being enchanted by every flavour of bling. It was bigger and better than last year's, with lots of stalls and free workshops in felted beads, crochet flowers, beaded snowflakes and dichroic fused glass. We loved the Wigjig earring and Celtic scroll workshop - I can't remember an hour that flew by faster, with some lovely friendly people. Wirework is definitely addictive (or as Kirsty would have it, the crack cocaine of the craft world). The place was packed initially but luckily the crowd thinned out by the end of the day so we got to take a photo and see everything on offer, including some breathtaking ideas for beaded Christmas decorations and gifts.

All in all a fabulous experience!
Have a good week,
