Monday, 16 April 2007 02:07 pmCrikey, I've been busy. Market on Saturday, as I said, went well, and I made about £23 in the end (and then I bought some of Claire's badges, so it's a bit less, but hey...) The evening with Rikk and Heather was lovely, and then I went home to collapse. Art came over on Sunday - we had a nice lunch at Bar Med, did some shopping, and went back to mine where I promptly collapsed in a heap with a headache - too much sun, I think. Must acquire non-crazy sunhat. So I wasn't great company, but he seemed to be okay with this; we took some more photos of my jewellery, and in the evening I roused myself to cook pasta with sausage and stuff. A good day, in all. :)
Today I got up at 9, still slightly woozy, and spent the morning clearing up my enormous piles of bead crap. I have got much of it sorted, which is great, and I have swept my desk clear. I bought a fourth clear compartmented box yesterday, a small one, and it now has all the semi-precious stone chips in. There are no less than four compartments for haematite things, because people are apparently keraaaazy for haematite. All three pairs of earrings I sold involved haematite in some way.
I have my first proper commission for jewellery -
slappersire has ordered a quantity of STUFF including some remakes of things I sold at the market; yesterday's shopping involved buying some supplies for that, though I still have to brave Hobbycraft for more haematite sphere beads. A workmate of
purpleheather has also enquired about something - I hope my reply isn't too wordy. I've added a few more pictures to the website - when I have time I need to make it look a bit better and probably divide it into sections.
But my focus for the next fortnight is my university stuff - I have a deadline a week on Thursday for three essays and four typography projects, so I'm going to be busy. I know what I'm doing, though, and if I keep in mind that I'm studying this stuff because I enjoy it, I should be okay. And Dave is visiting me on the weekend of the 27th, so I am very happy indeed :)
