Oops - have neglected my blog - sorry!

Yep - hangs head in shame..... I have been meaning to blog for a while and 'stuff' got in the way. I won't bore you with the details but here is what I have been up to......
This pendant I made when I went on a PMC course a few weeks ago. It was far more difficult to work with PMC than I had envisaged. Well that and the fact that we were given 5 minutes to come up with a design after a brief into to PMC. I was a bit flustered to say the least but not the only one. There was one stunning example of work and I was so envious of her skill but then I found out she had printed out loads of pics from internet and had copied a design. Nevertheless she had rendered it beautifully and had a gorgeous piece of work to take home. I am very keen to take up PMC but time is not currently allowing. This piece looks much better in real life and I am concerned that if I do PMC for my websie I wont be able to take good enough pics to showcase the pieces well but that's for future worry.

As previously mentioned we recently moved home, the last 2 months have been living in a building site and delighting in daily sawdust scatterings. Finally all that is over and the decorating is almost finished too. I wil be able to start making a house a home. I have painted this picture for my entrance hall. It is done in acrylic and I just need to varnish it with acrylic varnish to make it nice and shiny and durable.

Nice to see you back in blogland! Love the pmc pendant, I love hearts and I think it looks gorgeous,it's something I'd like to try, one day when i have time! I like your painting too - do the symbols have any meaning, it looks very mysterious
