I'm a happy person (well, most of the time ... I think!) and a total sucker for all things pretty and sparkley, which got me started on jewellery-making, which is my current hobby.

I've been dabbling in all sorts of crafts from the time I was little and was knitting for example, from the age of about six. In my teen years, I made my own clothes. On the jewellery-making front, in addition to stringing and wirework, I also indulge in a spot of lampworking and glass fusing now and then.

The whole process of creation is therapeutic & fun. And a wonderful change from my demanding career in IT. The best part of this hobby is connecting with and being inspired by crafters and others.
