I’m so excited! I’ve been gathering supplies and working on a number of projects over the last week:

- my first batch of resin jewellery is almost done, I just have to attach the findings to finish off the pendants. I’ve made another two small batches too, embedding some of my digital art in one set, and they’ve come out really well!

- finished off a lovely scarf that I’m hoping to have up on Etsy soon

- been spending a lot of time at the beach, collecting shells, sea glass, and stones. I’ve wire-wrapped some of the sea glass, and embedded some lovely shells in resin, and I’ve got some other projects planned with these materials too. I’m aiming to open another shop at Etsy that focuses solely on my sea-based designs soon.

Currently, I’m also working six days a week, so I’m finding it hard to make a lot of progress. But just doing a little here and there has been great – it keeps me happy and keeps me sane!

You know, I only just cleaned up my desk last week….

I do happen to be a bit of a chronic disorganiser, (heck, one of my friends has even nick-named me messy – rhymes with jessie…) and my crafts are no exeption to the rule. I simply cannot start one thing, work on it exclusively, and then finish it! I start one thing, get bored or have another brain wave, start something else, and then don’t put the other thing away…

Most evenings are spent sitting at my desk, my boyfriend Nick beside me playing games on his computer, and me alternating between a bit of knitting, crochet, jewellery making, nipping off to have a look at how my latest resin is going, reading blogs and forums, writing, posting, tweeting… whew!

Does anyone else suffer this delightful malady I like to call multi-crafting? Okay, now I’m off to read some more forums…
