Over the last few months I've been very busy creating craft projects for my magazine work, as well as working hard restoring my new home in the country.

I've just taken some time out to update my web site and create some new ideas for you, including a simple paint stencil project which would be great for a bathroom. Just click on the images at the right to see some of my makeover projects...

You can also meet me in person, together with my twin sister Jane, at the Hobby Crafts Show (UK) at the Birmingham NEC, 13th - 16th Nov, 2003, on the Crafts Beautiful stand, D30.

Here, I will be demonstrating Silver Alchemy's Precious Metal Clay (PMC), which is wonderful new way to create beautiful jewelry and decorative items made out of pure silver!

Have a look at Crafts Beautiful Magazine, where you can see some PMC jewelry which I made for the September edition.

Hope you enjoy the web site!
