- About Me:
- My Favourite things ... browsing in an Accessorize shop, apple crumble, B never too busy to be beautiful shop in Carnaby St. London, beading, beads, belgian chips, belly dancing, Ben&Jerry's chunky monkey ice cream, the colour blue, books, Broom Hilda, butterflies, Canada, cats, cute things, dogs, chocolate, chocolate mousse, Dilbert, Garfield, glitter, Ireland, jewellery, Lush bath bombs, mosaics, Pilgrim, Pride & Prejudice, poems, semi-precious stones, sparkles, Spongebob Squarepants, Swarovski, Tim Horton's coffee, Twinings Irish breakfast tea, UK
*** I'm an office administrator for a company that manufactures hydrogen generators by day and an aspiring bead jewellery maker by night. Seeing my day job isn't all that glamourous, I was looking for a way to add some glitter to my life, so when my friend gave me a handmade bead necklace and introduced me to beaded jewellery, I felt a bit like Alice in Wonderland... what's more sparkly than Swarovski crystal? All those colours, all those shapes... the possibilities are endless... so I started making jewellery myself as a hobby. Eventually, I had gathered such a large collection of handmade jewellery that my jewellery box was ready to explode, so I decided to sell some things... Ingenious idea as I can use the money to buy new beads and make new things! Have a look at my pictures and let me know what you think! ***
My favourite materials to work with are Swarovski Crystal beads for their sparkle of course, semi-precious stones and I love cute charms as well.

About STICHTING HESTER
Hester van Nierop was nearly 28 and had just graduated as an architect when, in September 1998, she was found raped and murdered in her hotel room in the Mexican border town of Ciudad Juárez. The fate suffered by Hester was not an exceptional one for the women in this town. Juárez was and still is infamous for the excessive violence against women, that takes place unpunished in most cases and against which the Mexican government is reacting inadequately. Imp… Continue
