Hello! in 2024, by Caprilicious

Hello everyone, how is 2024 treating you? As far as I am concerned, every day so far has been like a Monday - thank goodness I have something to look forward to later on in the year. The UK is soon to be hit by the second named storm of the year and Brrr! it is really cold out there. We are due to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary shortly and all I want to do is sit at home and stay warm.
I didn't pick up a bead for ages and ages after I got back from India in late December - I decided to go with the flow and let the need to create be the driving force. It wasn't until I was clearing out my drawer that I found these and put them together. I hope you like the first necklace of 2024.

Seafoam Sonata 2

Making this piece was a good antidote to the dreariness that is outside our windows - thoughts of floaty white dresses, strolling along a beachfront, cocktails on a balmy evening, cruise liners - my imagination was taking off on a daydream, which in my opinion is the best way to spend the rest of the winter. 

I have one more piece that has been created in my mind's eye and I've been collecting the 'ingredients' together. As we are back out in India shortly, it will be a simple but effective piece that I hope to finish before we leave. ​  

Have a wonderful week folks, and be sure to wrap up warm. Hospitals are busting at the seams and this is not a good time to fall ill. Enjoy yourselves, and I'll catch you soon.
Until then
