Well, it took a few days to get the holiday washing done and the outstanding jobs out of the way, but we're back into the old routine now. I've had a few hours to devote to the chickens - I have to admit I spent far too long on the pearls as firstly we were experiencing a heatwave and inside the house was hot, sticky & uncomfortable and secondly, I just could not get them right. Sorted now I think and I am working on the irridescent plumage of the black chicken now, much more fun.
I've been experimenting with making little pendants full of the seaside - still in the prototype stage.
After a false start with a super-glue incident turning the inside of the bulb milky white, I;ve got the look I want. Now I have to wear the pendant for a few days to see if it will stand up to it and also to check nothing untoward happens. I've already had one of them where the water has gone a but yellow for some reason, perhaps the cork? Any suggestions welcome.
I'm hoping this works, as they are so pretty and a great reminder of our holiday.
