It is that time of year when the schools have their annual sports day! This is Savannah's first sports day and I was lucky enough to be off this morning to be able to go and see her race. Bless them they all looked so bemused at the number of parents standing around shouting encouragement and taking pictures. Imagine my embarrassment at seeing Savannah come out with her T shirt on back to front bless her. All sorted though and put on the right way round by her teacher!
Andrew (Savannah's cousin) is in the same class as her so I have a few shots of him as well. They both looked like they had loads of fun.

Up on the roof
Got a thing for photography lately! I have been admiring my brother in laws' photographs (one of which you have seen on here!) and found out that my point and press camera has a couple of gadgets on it. Added to my photoshop elements I can play a bit with my pictures! This picture here is taken from my 2nd floor bedroom window and whilst not the best picture for composition I am so chuffed I managed to get the colours from the sunset.
Hope you are all well

Closing down
It is with great regret that I am announcing the closure of Aurorabeadz. This is with immediate effect and for the indefinite future. I am not sure about this blog at the moment so I am not going to delete it but postings may be few and far between.
Thank you for sharing my glassy journey this far. I sincerely hope it has not ended I am not selling my equipment but I am taking a step out for a while and am not sure how long that will be!!!
TTFN, thank you for reading, for buying and for being with me

Focal bead
Sometimes things just seem to go right! I made a few beads last night first time on my torch for a good week I think. I made 3 focal beads which I am mostly happy with. I think I need to work on my ends, they are ok but tend to slant a bit. Not a mega problem at all just me being a perfectionist! Anyhoo this bead and a few others will be up for sale later on in my Etsy shop

Elegance
Only a quickie today a few things going on in my life right now that are demanding my attention but I am still here an just wanted to touch base with you all!
This focal bead is made with a base of black glass and with Triton shards laid over it! My photography skills are still a bit lacking so this picture does not do it justice, you should see the different colours in the silver glass simply gorgeous if I do say so.
