Playing with Fire

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of spending the day at Mango Beads.


My scrapping pal, Amanda, from The Studio joined me in a days play :D


There is nothing as relaxing as an hour or two working in front of a flame - I find it so therapeutic.


I called in to Mango Beads workshop yesterday, to have a quick catch up chat with the ever so talented Amanda Muddimer and Sarah Wadley - do go check them out to spy just how talented these girls are.


Before I left to head home, Amanda gave me the beads I had made two weeks ago, as they had been baking in the kiln and were to hot to handle when I left.......I love them lots and now feel all fired up to dedicate one night a week to playing with fire.



Thanks for dropping by
