It was my girl’s birthday yesterday and only yesterday I went out to my favorite beads store to get some stuffs to make her birthday present and also to grab a birthday cake. She presumed I have forgotten all about it and was out to celebrate with some friends when I reached home. That was fine so I have a few hours to get the gift done before she returned.
And ta..daa… I managed to make for her a bracelet and matching earrings in turquoise, her birthstone. I think the Swarovski crystals and the silver findings makes the jewelry looks trendy and interesting.
Not a bad effort in such a short time. And sometimes I wish I have more than 24 hours in hand so that I can have more time to pursue my passions especially sewing which is time consuming. But I know deep down even though I have 48 hours in a day it will never be enough, for I will just find more things for myself to do.
Now back to my patchwork which I am hoping to finish before Christmas. See you soon.

They are semi-precious stones and will burnt a hole in my pocket. When is your birthdate? I see if I can find some plastic beads in your birthstone.
