Sweet sweat

In an excess of creativity this week, I joined a bead-making workshop on Saturday. Using that faux clay you can buy from art supply shops in all colours of the rainbow and which can, unlike the natural alternative, be baked to fired hardness in a home oven, we learned to make patterned beads. I'm posting a picture of my creations. Now all I need to do is work out how to string them into necklaces and I've got all my Christmas present problems solved!
