Your Help Please!


Now ladies I need your help please.
I desperately need some lovely big red shiny beads just like the ones above.
What do you think girls? Where can I buy some big cherry beads about 13mm in diameter? The ones in the picture were a lucky find in a charity shop.
I look forward to your comments, I know you won't let me down.
There'll be no more cupcakes with out them!
.
Till next time
love fi x

PS Thanks for all the Maisy love.

Oh my goodness, where have I been ... all your wonderful posts and I'm just getting back here. For some reason blogger doesn't seem to update my list of blogs I follow when new posts are available. Your photos are beautiful and the double rainbow is amazing. I've only seen a double rainbow once and you have these all the time ... WOW. I don't know what stores you have, we would probably be able to get those beads at a Michaels or Joanns. You may have to look on line for these. Good luck, should I find anything I'll be back to let you know.

Hey Fi, what lovley photos, you do have the best scenery where you live.
As for the lovely big cherry beads, well, I don't know if I'll be able to hlep you out. But I do have some cherry trees with fruit and fingers crossed they will be as big and red and juicy as those lovely beads.
Am sure someone in your neck of the woods will track some down for you, but I will keep an eye out just het same.
Enjoy your week and your wonderful sky scenery.

Beautiful pictures, lucky for me when my James needed taking to school it was a 5 min walk.Lesley.

What a beautiful series of photos, I love your view from your back door.
Sorry I can't help you with the beads. I would try online.

Stunning scenery but I guess 16 miles each way twice a day would be a bit much for me - I used to be able to walk it with my daughter. Sorry can't help with the beads - hope you manage to find them. Are they for cherries on your lovely creations?

I must say having had a really lovely 4 days up in your neck of the woods last month I just loved it. We stayed in a cottage near Skipton with a couple of our Dutch friends [you can imagine what they thought of the scenery].
Sorry I can't help with the big red beads but will keep a look out for you.

Gorgeous views :)

I'd think ebay would be the answer - perhaps with clever searching - jewellery items that could be broken up??

Hello there, I'm a jeweller and often order from vitabeads, who have a wonderful range of semi-precious at reasonable prices. In fact I'm about to place an order for some rock crystal briollettes (lovely for Christmas - like sparkly raindrops). Have a look at the link below - there are some lovely jade beads for just $7.50 and some tagua nut beads too (rather more expensive). Would you like me to order them for you along with mine? I'd be delighted to help you with this and send them on to you:

Gorgeous views. I have a strange mist/fog that hovers in the meadow behind my house too, very atmospheric!

Lululiz said...

Beautiful photographs, I love the double rainbow one.
Can't help with the red beads though, sorry, I checked a few of my favourite bead sites but couldn't find anything similar.

Teje said...

Thank you for this lovely post with so wonderful photos!
Sorry can't help - I'm having big problem with finding any kind of materials - what about internet...
Wishes from Crete! Teje

Oh, I love when you post photos of your area. It's so lovely there!

The beads look like small tomatoes to me. A more orange-ish red that is a bit translucent. I've never seen any like them. Or at least how the picture makes them look.

Beautiful photos - esp. the rainbows!! Can't help with beads but will keep a look out at our car boot.

Unknown said...

Love the sky pictures, we get lots of rainbows up here, but I still love to stare at them as they're so beautiful! Hope you've found the beads you want, I would normally try ebay, failing that I would look at bijoux beads. Hope you find them somewhere! :) x

oh my God, what a heavenly part of the world. that landscape just does something to my soul.. I was in the lake district and did a good portion of the coast to coast walk a number of years ago. I thought then that this is where I come from. I felt at home. I have never felt that way anywhere else. Lucky you!!

I know all of the places you took us to here. And on our annual stay in Wensleydale have often been cut off from Hawes by floods - what memories you bring back!
