A New Necklace From Bits and Bobs

I was looking through my jewellery box that my gorgeous little sister Emily sent me the other day seeing what was in there and I came across a few "broken" bits. I found a butterfly charm missing its jewell, a love heart charm that carly gave to me, a plain silver chain and the matching sleeper to the one I broke a couple of weeks ago. Oh what to do what to do. I put it all together with a purple pearl bead and here is the result.

what the colours actually look like




I like the way it turned out but I am not sure wether I should add anything or not... We'll have to see.

New Painting

I brought a few canvases last week from Go-Lo and I was bored the other day so I painted what was meant to be a self portrait but it didn't really end up looking like me at all. If you think it looks a bit like it should be in a children's book there is a reason for that, in Children's Texts at uni our last assignment is a picture book and I have been really stuck on that lately. Anyway here it is (sorry about the photo quality I am still using my phone.):

painted with acrylics, to get the glossy look on the window I used sealer to try

and get a 'glassy' look.
