Woman on a mission!
I have been commissioned to make a bracelet - gold and tortoiseshell (synthetic, of course) - so I am on a mission to find the 'findings'! Gold is no problem, but have searched the internet for Tortoiseshell beads/pieces to no avail. Difficulty being - it has to match an old necklace.
Am out with friends today and am hoping we may go to Selby to do a raid on the many charity/junk shops there in search of old jewellery to harvest.
Will bribe the driver with promise of lunch at Selby Garden Centre - they serve the most delicious Corned Beef Pie!!
