Hello everyone, it's lovely to chat to you again after a busy week. I was invited out to lunch last weekend and was able to wear the Kandinsky necklace - I must say it felt really good and I got a number of compliments. I realise that it looks much larger and more intimidating until it is worn - and then, it just feels like a piece of fun around your neck. Just right for a dull November evening and a simple outfit.

I received a strand of faux turquoise teardrops in the post and wanted to use them straight away. I've tried to control the bead buying sprees I used to go on and consequently only pick up componenets that I fall in love with at first sight. Once I have them in my hot little hands however, I can't control the urge to use them straight away. The amethyst I used in the necklace are light in colour, but they are plump and juicy cylinders that have been gently faceted to reflect the light wonderfully. The combination of turquoise and amethyst is classic and beautiful.

Christmas is coming, and the goose is getting fat - that is if it hasn't been affected by Avian flu. I'm not celebrating this year, but for those of you who are, remeber that Caprilicious offers a free service - I will pack and send your gifts out for you if you message me. I'll even include a card from you and any message you care to send.

That's me for this week, folks. Have a wonderful week, and I'll catch you next week, same time, same place.
Until then
xx

Hello! I’m Neena Shilvock, and I’m utterly, cheerfully, incorrigibly besotted with jewellery.
What began over twelve years ago as a harmless creative escape has blossomed into a full-scale romance with beads, colour, texture, and all things fabulously statement-y. I design and handcraft quirky, characterful necklaces—the sort that refuse to whisper and much prefer to make an entrance. The passion hasn’t faded in the slightest. If anything, it’s grown legs. I even dream in beads.
Truly.
This blog is my little corner of the internet where I share new creations hot off the bead mat, the stories and inspirations behind them, the occasional styling ramble, and a generous sprinkling of wry humour. If you’re someone who delights in bold colour, craftsmanship, and a good chuckle, then you’re very much my tribe. Do say hello—it might just be the start of a rather lovely friendship.
