All Sorts!
In our latest necklace designs, we're combining leather, glass and ceramics - a collage of mixed media beads. The possibilities are endless and through research into materials used to make beads, we've learnt that we are only scratching the surface. Our main focus will always be our own handmade ceramic beads and we'll use other beads only to compliment our own unique beads. In the meantime, we are enjoying the journey of exploring and discovering - watch this space!

It is here!
The day has finally arrived - also in our small town! Vuvuzelas are heard, people of all ages are dressed in yellow, businesses closed early, our flag is seen everywhere... I took these pictures at the Breytenbach Cultural Centre where my studio is. No need to go to the Grand Parade in Cape Town to catch the "gees" (spirit) - it's here in Wellington! Go Bafana Go!!

4 days to go!
It's hard to believe that the long expected World Cup Soccer tournament is about to start - its here! We were selected to sell our products in the Cape Craft and Design Institute's Collective Shop at the Cape Town FanFest on the Grand Parade. We made a variety of products which we hope will be snapped up by soccer tourists wishing to take something home which is handmade in South Africa.
Thank you to the Cape Town City Council and the Cape Craft and Design Institute for showcasing 200+ Western Cape crafters products during the tournament. It is here!
