Ok Ive been tagged by Krista.....so by the looks of it I have to write 6 weird things about myself and tag a further 6 people. (hmmm i don't think i know that many people lol)

1, I have a major obsession over beads...hubby's even suggested committing me once.

2 I have a "V" shaped scar on my hand that i got due to cutting my hand on a mirror.....i like to think it stands for "virgin"....*cough*....lol

3 I check my handbag for: fags, lighter, keys, and my phone about a million times before home in the mornings.... because i forget that Ive all ready checked.

4 I have an uncanny ability to read body language and tell if someones telling lies.

5 I have a severe phobia of wasps. I once ran the length of my road (and its a long road) trying to get away from one. (oh and i left the kids behind too, shame on me)

6 I love salads.....id choose a salad over anything else. all the time.

Im off to find some poor unfortunate person to tag!.....

luke has no top front teeth. the poor little mite managed to fall from the top bunkbed today and smashed his face on the floor...he must of fallen head first and hit the ground very hard because there was so much blood.....and he was screaming so much *sniff* i took him into the bathroom to try and stem the blood flow and have a proper look at what he had done....and he was missing a tooth , as i was trying to hold the flannel on his mouth he moved slightly and his other tooth fell out too. i was trying so hard not to panic and not to let him see that his teeth fell out... and im so glad that my sister was there to help because i think i might just of freeked out!

wow ive been away a little to long.....sorry! the reson being.....i brought my self a sewing machine. hehe , so ive been playing around with that for the last few weeks :) ive made loads of stuff , tea towls , bedding , cushions and cushion covers....blah blah blah , but the pictured bag is by far my fav. its big enough to fit all of my jewellery teaching stuff in including all my books, boxes and boxes of beads, about 30 pairs of pliers and a few other things. oh and its got a lovley embrodered daisy (that i managed to do after buggering it up about 6 times!) on the front with room for a name to be added......and get this.....the whole bag is made from a Natural coloured curtain and a blue and yellow strippy pillow case....oh and some wadding in the middle to soften it all up lol , no more carring around a bulky box of stuff for me!

Bored. i am so bored. anyone else think that today's going slow? it already feels like 3 in the afternoon, but its only just gone 11 am. Ive been running around like a headless chicken trying to find a dentist for my son Luke , poor thing has got another wobbly tooth that's been wobbly for about 3 months and now its been moving to the side and effecting his other teeth , his gum is all swollen and hes not eating anything because of it. but i cant find a dentist that will take on another NHS patient , so everywere wants 40 quid to see him...and ive only got £15, it looks like im going to have to leave him in pain untill monday. you'd think that they would make an exception for a child huh. he's only 6 bless him , how am i ment to explain that i cant afford to pay to make him better?

Oops i forgot to say heres the linkie to our wedding photo's: http://www.flickr.com/photos/10552417@N07/page2/

well its been a month since we go married and so far married life hasnt reveled anything but normallity....whooo hooo thats what i like :) well after ten years together i dont think that anything mike did could supprise me!. its been really hetic here the kids are on the summer holidays from school and personally i think the six week school hoilday should be banned. whatever happened to the law the gov' were thinking of about making the kids go to school untill 6 at night? sounds great to me lol. you know when you become a parent and people say "its not going to be easy" well i think that you should get a health warning before they are born. something like they put on fag boxes...only you get told everytime you mention that you want a baby lol
so what have i been up to? well ive updated the website a little got bored of that so im sitting here rambling about how lifes not fair....sounds better than getting stressed over the website hehe :)
Mike is sitting on the sofa playing on Lukes Nintendo DS , and Luke's sitting there watching him as if to say "hey thats mine" "can i have a go yet?" and zac's running around like a headless chicken because its his birthday (yay!) he's 5 today and cant wait for the family to turn up and give him prezzys lol guess what time he got up this morning.....go on have a guess.....it was 5:22 and no he didnt wanna go back to bed lol but i managed to put him off for about 30 mins so i could have more sleep. well i better get going to do the rest of the housework before the family turn up.....allthough why im doing that i have no idea because they only reck the place anyway!

tomorow's the day :)

wow what a trying day today has been. my family has been at my house from 11'oclock this morning and whn i say my family i mean every single one of them , there was vicky darren riley ellie and lilly and then there was mum stacey kieran and also kirsty and dawson. oh and nan too :) and i had to cook sunday dinner for all of them..... then rush around and do repairs and take in dresses and suits etc while they all tryed the wedding gear on.
I. am. so. tired.
i was tired by the time it god to 1 o'clock. its so exausting spending time with my family , because (even though im ashamed to say this) im nothing like they are , for example they are all extrovert and very loud with loads of energy , and im the otherway around. i would rather have my own company sometimes and they would never dream of it. so when ever im quiet they think i have the hump , when i hav'nt, so all i get from them is "cheer up you miserable moo". and then when i pick up the cake thats been sqashed into the carpet they say "leave it i'll do it" then they never do. they just go home. and to top that lot of....me and mike nearly had a row over the amount of noise the family were making when mike was in bed asleep after finishing a night of work. im just lucky that mike understands that it wasnt my fault that they all turned up and said so are you cooking dinner then?! poor bloke i feel for him because i could never sleep through that noise. but you try telling my family that they cant all just turn up when mikes sleeping.

its nearly 9 days to go. eeek. I'm sitting here posting this because i cant seem to sleep. there's too much stuff rolling around in my head....kinda like a tornado threatening to swallow me up and spit me back out again a million miles away from were i want to be. i should be in bed because i know I'm not going to get up on time in the morning , to get up at 7:00 i have to go to bed at 11:00.....cant help it if i need my sleep a little to much :) and i know it sounds silly but i really really really don't want to have another of the nightmares that Ive been having lately. give you two guesses what they are about? lol

How many people do you think that i could cram into my 2 bedroom flat? go on have a guess, you'll be supprised at the answer......... in the photo there are 8 people but you cant see the other side of the room.....theres another 6 people there. plus luke and zac were in bed and there were two more people at the front door. and would you belive that they are all my close family?! oh and there was me too lol that takes the head count to 18 people....oh and they are all women apart from luke and zac :) and it just so happens that the gas man came to do an inspection on that day(there was a gas leak down the road), he walked in and said "omg" and walked right back out the door lmao....mind you that might of been due to the fact that someone feed my nan a little to much wine and she said "off off off"...and then upon seeing his face she said "oh thats not the stripper then?" not to mention the fact that my mum was sitting on the floor with a green shinny face pack on and her hair was in bunches (god it was a very fightening sight lol) Is'nt life brill :)......!

Luke had his school dance at the summer fair yesterday and he looked like he really enjoyed it :) if you can spot him he has a red T- shirt on in the pics.
he played at being a morris dancer...lol it was so funny because he had the biggest grin on his face the whole time he was dancing around :) ad he won an award for the best dancer... im gonna re-name him to billy , as in billy ellliot lol. poor boy is quite sad now because now that they have performed at the summer fair his dance classes are over , when he first said that he wanted to go to the dance classes i thought he would hate it esp when he figured out that there was only 3 boys out of 36 kids but he supprised me and he loved every moment of it :)

Ok i know the photos are a little dark , but all in all im happy because I finally found someone to do my hair and makeup for the wedding :) , is costing me £75.00 though. but at least its sorted out! fingers crossed that we dont have anymore mishaps between now and the 6th july. I cant belive how different that i look! oh and excuse the old t-shirt , i resisted the tempation to put on my dress and parade around the bedroom admiring it lol. It's at times like this that the nerves actually disappear for a while and i look forward to getting married :)

mike went out for his stag night tonight.....and came back with a Nokia N95 phone for me , work that one out lol , (my first though was that he got pissed and nicked it lol) but he brought it in the o2 shop at blue water shopping center......how he ended up there i can only guess it was something to do with Dawson his best man.....hmmm I'll interrogate him in the morning :)

ok ive got it sorted....at last. my sister vicky has found someone that can do the date i need and shes coming round for a trial run as well on wednesday :)

Remember when i said watch this space?....well it happened. everything went wrong again lol. the problem this time is that the lady who was doing my hair for the wedding has pulled out , so now im completly stuffed. its too late to find someone now because its so close to the actual date , im problerbly going to end up just walking into a hairdressers and paying them to do something with it because i cant afford to pay for a trial run first , most of them charge upwards of £60.00
right im off to phone everyone i know and to see if they know anyone who could do it on the cheep. But at least ive finished the tiaras now :) check back soon lol

Today I'm actually happy , whooo hooo , i don't know why but I'm feeling quite good.....watch this space cos somethings bound to happen between now and the next time i post lol. the work shops i did yesterday went well and i got paid 50 quid for two hours work...see why I'm happy?! and I'm being reimbursed for materials used , which is about 30 quid. Hopefully they will pay me before the wedding so that i can use that money towards getting the food for the reception. the only problem i had yesterday was the fact that i had to teach 21 socal workers how to make jewellery lol god with them all sitting round that huge table waiting for me to speak was kind of horrible LOL but hey ho i braved it out and now i hav'nt got to go back again :) oooh and i got a free lunch!

Another of Luke's teeth fell out yesterday , so i decided to make him a letter saying thank you from the tooth fairy...me thinks i should go into business with invitations and letters, because if anyone in my family are having a party etc they all come round and say....Cerrie you know you love me.... and i think oh no here we go again. it was only today that i had to make my little brother some invites for his paintball party on July 1st. and last week i had to make my cousin Sam's invites for her 18th birthday party , and before that it was my sister Stacey's birthday invites and then before that i made all the wedding invitations....the list goes on!

Mmmmm , I'm sitting here pondering what to write about. and I'm not coming up with anything.
apart from the update for the wedding jewellery:
made the 9ct gold earrings and matching necklace , plus a pair of 9ct gold crystal studs in the same red colour crystal. and made two sets of sterling silver necklaces and earrings in the same style as the gold set. Oh and Ive also made a Jet & Siam swarovski crystal 3 row cuff bracelet for my sister Vicky at her request.... still gotta make her necklace and earrings though , and still got to make my set yet but i have the supplies to do that tomorrow. what else? oh and Ive finished making the ribbon corsages for Vicky's kids and their hair barrettes. i don't think that there is anything else to update on but i will probably post pictures of completed jewellery in the morning when its all (apart from the tiaras) finished. Oh and i showed my mum the shoes that i brought....i don't think that she was too impressed because as soon as i showed them to her she looked at me and said "wear them on the day then if the other ones are really bothering you that much" and she didn't sound like she meant what she was saying. oh yes and.....drum roll please.....Mike's mum sent back her R.S.V.P card. Yeah i know shocking huh!
Ops for someone who couldn't think of anything to say....It turned into a long post! hehehe

eeeeek its one month today , god im scared lol its not marring Mike thats the problem, it's walking up the isle in front of 30 people that scares me. shudder. and no amount of "it'll be ok on the day" is going to calm my fears of totally making a pratt of myself lol. Mike's bestman Dawson offered to fall over for me just as i come in the doors so that everyone looks at him and then i can quickly run down the isle to excape all those ooooohh's and awwww's ...im actually quite tempted to say yes to him. mind you at least no ones going to burst out laughing at my name like they did at my sisters wedding last year , it came to the bit were the registrar said "Darren Andrew John Churcher do you take ......Vicky Day.... (said really quickly) to be your wedded wife" and that was it everyone was on the floor with laughter because he said her name so quickly and it sounded soooo common lol. at least Mike's name is only Michael Hedger with nothing inbetween so mine wont sound so bad pmsl , ok this may make me sound bad but if anyone even thinks of crying i'll kick them in the shin as i walk past......or run past if dawson has his way :) i dont think that on top of everything else id be able to cope with someone crying because that will set me off and i'll end up looking like a panda because my make-up ran.
Oh the joy's of Pre-wedding Stress

I worked up the guts to get mike to phone his mum the other day , and guess what her excuse was for not replying to the wedding invitation?.....it was that she'd put it away in a safe place and that she had "totally forgotten were it was" i suppose its understandable though because i do it all the time!
I feel like crap today :( got a major headache......would'nt it be nice if just for one day i was totally and without a dout completley happy? hehehe
Oh heres something that made me chuckle yesterday , Luke was telling jokes to Zac and he said "what do you call a row of cabbages?" to that Zac said "a row of cabbages?" then luke burst out laughing and said "no zac your ment to say i dont know, because then i can tell you its called a duel cabbage way" to which Zac replied "whats a duel cabbage way?" I think that was problerbly wasted on zac lol bless him. I tried my hardest to stop laughing and explain the concept of a joke but you know what, i dont think it worked!

omg im such a wally.... i went out to get the 3 boys shirts today , got there and thought fantastic they have all the sizes that i need...then got to the till and the lady says to me if you buy 3 or more blouses you get 5% off. spot the mistake yet?....i dont think that the boys would be happy with girls blouses lol but it wasnt all my fault cos the first one was a shirt and i did no more than look through the rest on the rack and picked out sizes lol

Got the balloons :) they were £3.35 for 10. But technically they were a tenner because its going to cost me over a fiver to get them filled with helium.

thinking ahead here....im still having problems with my shoes .....so ive gone and brought a new pair :) im hoping that i can convince my mum that these ones are better (taking into concideration that its going to be really hot on the day) and hoping that i wont of hurt her feelings by getting another pair. these ones only have a 2 inch heel , the other ones have a 3 inch heel so these wont hurt as much lol not to mention be a lot cooler.

OK enough , It's all going wrong lol ive made so many mistakes today it's unbeliveable. i really dont know were my head is at :( first thing i did this morning was put a teabag in my coffee...spot the mistake? pmsl and the rest of the day has'nt been much better either. then my sis phones up and tells me all these wonderfull (reads: not wonderfull) ideas that she has had for her jewellery at the wedding....that ive got to make. and my other little sister has gone and had all her hair chopped off but still wants a tiara....how the hell do i brouch that subject? "sorry little sis you cant have a tiara cos it wont stay in your hair but im going to have to let your other sister have one because if i dont she will kick up a stink and proberbly wont come and it'll be all my fault. and im sorry that you will throw a paddy too because she's got one and you havnt" arrrg. so so far ive still gotta make:3 tiaras , 3 knecklaces with matching pendants 3 pairs of matching earrings, and 9ct gold set of 2 pairs of earrings and a necklace to match the others (that is gonna cost me a bomb because the 9ct ear wires alone are £7.90)....oh and jewellery for me. and to top that off it's only 1 month and 6 days to our wedding....that leaves me with 1 payday between now and the wedding and thats usless because the wedding is on the 6th july and we get paid on the 27th of june. so no time for orders to come through and all that jewellery to be made in a space of 10 days. great. Sigh. Someone talk me down cos im about to go stark raving bonkers lol

oh for *beep* sake. i cant sleep again. someone please hit me over the head with something cos this is driving me nuts lol

I'm off to my mum's house for sunday dinner :) theres nothing quite like your mums cooking! that reminds me its her birthday on the 7th june so id better get looking for a birthday prezzie. Oooh actually while im here i forgot to show you the photos of our trip to the natural history museum , my mum tried hiding from the camera in that pic , she should of just said cheese cos now she looks like an old dinosaur...LOL

*yawn* I cant sleep. its proberbly a combo of the heat we are having at the mo and the stress of days to come. its 12:30 in the morning and ive gotta be up at 7 , but it was fruitless trying to get to sleep because ive been laying in bed for wayyy over an hour and im getting nowhere.

Tomorow is a big day for me. well sorta. its the first time i have ever been on a sunbed and im being draged along with my sister kirsty because she says "you want to look nice on the big day dont you?" the only problem im having with this is the fact that i'll have to stand there in my undies. Shudder. but other than that nothing has really happened in that last few days...thank god i needed a break. got the shopping to do in the morning as well , i hate the monthly shopping , anyone want to offer to do it for me? anyone? ok maybe not but it was worth a try.
Oh i got another job offer today :) the place were i taught the last course at ,have asked me to teach 2 workshops on the 11th of June , should be fun , oh and im going to be running another six week course in september. they did ask me to do it now but the problem with that is that the course dates run straight through our wedding and honeymoon and i dont think that it would be fair to the 10 people who sign up for the course to cut it short by two weeks , so i had to say i couldnt do it. but great stuff they rearranged for september.

I had my hair trial this afternoon and this is the hair that I've decided on (see pic) i love everything about it! i don't know if you can see but in one of the closeup pic's you can see a small crystal...i attached on with wire to a bobby pin and i think i like it lol so i may have 4mm swarovski crystals dotted through out the curls. thank you to Michelle (Amy's mum) for helping me out...your an absolute angel:)

look at what Luke and Zac made lol Bless their little cotton socks. thats the first time in about 3 months (maybe more) that they have actually sat down and done something together with out arguing or full on fighting. and to think they were doing that for the reception hall. Awww it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :) and no before someone feels obliged to say 'that's slave labor' it wasn't my idea...they thought of that all on their own awwww.
Have you noticed the counter at the top of my blog? every time i look at it it feels as if someones just dropped a brick in my stomach. lol
oh and....ahem.....don't look at the crap under the chair. its funny how stuff piles up in places you cant see huh.
Steph , Krista , Jayne & Jess... if any of you are reading this could you please explain to me how to find you on my space pleaaase (Sorry , i cant help being thick!) x

Ouch Ouch Ouch Ouch....that's the sound I'm making with every step that i take in these shoes lol...god they are gonna kill me. they have a 3 inch heel so on the plus side I'm taller! but on the downside its going to take me a year to get used to them , so I've been waring them around the house trying to stretch them (so they dont give me blisters on the day) and also to get used to the heel size (i normally ware flat shoes!) wish me luck.

for the last coupe of weeks mike has been really getting on my nerves lol , not so much in a bad way but more of an annoying way , because every time someone speaks to him , he ends up saying "what?" because he didn't hear them. and it came to blows yesterday and i pushed him to get an appointment at the docs (for my sanity's sake) but now i feel a bit of a cow for having a moan at him because it turns out that he has a perforated eardrum....opps. but at least he's now got the problem sorted out! and then i felt even more horrible because i gave him his dinner and said 'ere then realized what id said and laughed hysterically i couldn't help it!....hands up if you think i should apologize!

Guess what?.....the photographer couldn't come today. I'm getting really worried about this bloke. last time we had to meet him our appointment was at 5pm and we sat there waiting for him to show up until 7:30. and then today its a no show. hmmmm maybe its just nerves creeping up on me again , but doesn't anyone else find this a little worrying? what if he does it on the day?!

Ive just realized that i never posted about the limo..... yep a limo , my lads are going to be soooo chuffed to bits that they will get to go in a car like this :) i cant wait to see their little faces light up!
and get this.....it only cost us £150 to hire. see it proves that its not what you know its most definitely who you know.....well who my mum knows anyway lol , thank you Angie my mums best friend in the world!

God is it nearly Wednesday already? this week is flying past , I've got loads to do in the morning including making the next batch of favors and meeting the photographer at 4:30 in Dartford , not to mention fitting in the school trips and doing the pack lunch shopping oh and Luke has his dance class after school so that means I'm going to have to pick Zac up at 2:50 then hang around until 3:45 so that i can pick Luke up and then shoot off to Dartford on the train , i don't think I'm going to make it in time for 4:30. if only cloning was a reality!

ooh its so quiet here at the mo , Luke's in bed , Zac's staying at my sisters house for the night and Mike is fiddling around with the games on his XBOX , so its nice to have some quiet time for a change :)

while I'm here I'm making a public apology for the email i sent Steph chewing her ears off because i was panicking about the wedding (nerve attack...in a big way) Love ya Steph , sorry!

Ive Got my shoes......My lovely mum saved me around £60 by finding this fantastic pair of shoes by rainbow club at a brilliant price of £1 yep 1 quid at the second hand shop , someone up there must love me because I've been looking at these shoes for ages thinking id love to have them but they are just so expensive. well now I've got a pair whoooo hoooo! Thanks mum your a star :) x

just a general update......
Mikes mum still hasn't replied to the wedding invitation. nor has she phoned. I'm getting quite worried actually because its been a month (maybe more) since we took the invitation to her home in gillingham and when i handed her the invite she just put it down on the table and didn't even glance at it. i know that she hasn't liked me in the past but you would of thought that she would of put aside her differences if only for mike. after all its only one day and he is her only child. They hardly ever speak as it is. and really there is no excuse.

As many of you know , that as well as organizing my own wedding i am also making the jewelery for a friends wedding (Mel) this is her tiara & I'm very proud of this one as its quite unique. Click on the images for a larger view! these photos came out better than expected too :)

ok forget the last cake topper , because i dropped it and broke it Opps. I think this one is better anywho :) its fresh from the oven and took aprox 12 hours to make.....proberbly longer if you add in all the time i spent throwing bits away or starting again cos i screwed up hehe

Thought id post some piccies of the dress for those of you who keep bugging me too , no comments on how short the dress looks please lol i cant help being little! im only 5 foot 2 and trust me if i could grow a few more inches i would!

Whoo hoo thats another thing sorted , ive paid the flowers at a total of £66.00 for a red rose & bear grass bouquet , 2 Ivory foam rose corsage's (my bridesmaids have allergies!) , 6 Red rose button holes and 24 white carnation button holes with leather leafs.

OMG. Someone catch me cos im about to feignt. ive just spent 40 quid on underware. on bloody underware. ive never spent more than an tenner for a bra , knickers, socks ,and outfit the kids walldrobes , let alone 40 quid for a bra , knickers and a suspender belt. im in total shock. hey thats a thought..... maybe i'll give mike such a shock he'll have to sleep through the night alowing me to plonk myself infront of the telly. will it work? nope probly not. but then again he best be pleased lol. but did you know that more than 56% of couples say that on the wedding night they were to tired to do anything but sleep?. plus i had the added embarresment of ellie my 3 year old nice thinking i was playing hide and seek when i was being mesured for a bra. i could hear her bounding along the dressing room corridoor saying 'were are you auntie cerrie im gonna find you!' everyone shouted no! but it was to late cos their was dear little ellie pulling the curtain back full pelt and me standing there with.... ahem..... not much on. yep laugh away lol. its funny now im dressed but at the time well there were no words.

boy am i tierd. ive been making yummy miniture chocolates for the wedding favor bags :) i made 110 chocolates in all , they say....

Cerrie & Michael

06-07-07

Thanks for sharing our special day!

theres still another batch thats got to be made but I'm glad that everything is finally coming together now , because all i want to do is relax and enjoy , but i cant do that all the while that im panicking about things that have gotta be done lol

Your never gonna guess were ive been today! i sat in the audience on the trisha Goddard Show at maidstone tv studios pmsl , but only cos i got roped into it by my family.....was quite good fun actually , an experience to remember to put it one way! the only problem was the cameras........take them away and hey ho you got my perfect day out. but i dont suppose that they would do that though huh. dont know when its going to be aired on telly yet but i'll let you know :)
oooh seeings as its nearly midnight.......
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO STACEY
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO STACEY
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
i was gonna post a piccie of you as a baby but that would cause me more hassle than its worth so i'll just say i love ya instead!
so even though i had a great day out i do feel a little bit evil because when i got home my boys and mike were sitting there as if i deliberatly starved them or something. the first words out of Zac's mouth was not 'hello mum we missed you' as you might expect, but instead he said...whats for dinner.

Ive been Practicing lol , i did actually start out making a figure of mike for our cake , then i got bored so i made my little sister stacey something for her 16th birthday on friday.....if your wondering why shes got no clothes on....its because staceys not that sweet....hehehe and anyway practice makes perfect and ive got a long way to go!

hows this for well trained?! lol , i wont mention that it took me quite a few promises but hey ho he made the coffee....hehehehe

Woooot the dresses fit! these are my baby sisters , Kirsty (left) and Stacey (right) can you tell that stacey was none to happy with being made to have her photo taken?!

Still got a long way to go untill i have enough stock for the jewellery party , but im working on it!

This is what my Sisters Kirsty and Stacey (My bridesmaids) are going to be wearing , I havent got them yet so fingers crossed that when they arrive they will fit!

See i do work hard *pokes tounge out to the person that said i dont do bugger all* you know who you are :P

Feel Privaliged that i actually posted this picture!

Ive decided to do another jewllery party because god knows we need the pennys now that the unmentionable is looming very close. the pictured necklace is Stirling silver and is made up of small 5mm Glass Hearts in various Styles. hopefully this will sell well because its actually a custom jobby that was requested at the last jewellery party and everyone seemed to want one , so fingers crossed. Krista have you done any jewellery party's yet? you should ya know its well worth it and if you cant work up the corage then why not rope a friend into helping you with the talking part? cos thats what i did the first time! and now im happy to do it on my own.

Ok Ok i know im rattling on about the camera.....lol...... but wow look at the quality of the piccie , it was taken in low light and still managed to come out better than any image i have ever taken before! , the beads pictured are for a heavy weight Bracelet , Made from Stirling Silver Coated Mineral Beads and Rhodonite Large Rectangles and Rhodonite Wavy Oval Bead as the focal Point. Im thinking Of wire wrapping the Oval But im not quite Sure on weather i will or not yet. the Rhodonite beads are very large so they would prob be more suited as pendants (thats how large they are) but i had the bracelet in mind when i ordered the components , so im gonna stick with that idea for now.

As For whats been Happening in my life the past couple of weeks......well......ive desided im not going to talk about anything to do with the wedding......at all..... cos i must be turing into a bridezilla. so hummm what to talk about?.......oh oh i got somthing to tell you , my son Zac came home with a pupil of the week award last week , it was awarded for him trying so hard to learn his letter sounds , i was soooo proud lol because for a while he was way behind in the class because of concentration issues he had , but now it seems that he is doing great :) .....what else......(Can you tell im having trouble trying to think of something else? hehe)

Ooh while im here *WAVES* at stacey my sis , (she's been reading my blog at school when shes supposed to be working lol) so Stacey for a quiet life mum says i have to say ......GET BACK TO WORK! (shhhh dont tell mum but i dont mean it)
