Welcome to Heatherworks. Can you believe it's nearly time to get all pink, fluffy and into Valentine mode...
To celebrate the festival of romance I've created a really cute Love Hearts charm, available as a pattern, kit with additional materials packs too.
If you like your beading a little more involved, my new Bella's Charm is an intricate yet dainty pendant. Encrusted with crystal Chaton stones and Swarovski Pearls, this lovely design has a secret compartment, hide your hopes, dreams wishes or prayers and wear them close to your heart. Bella's charm is available as a kit in three colourways, as a pattern only, or you can buy additional materials packs.
My Little Owl Charm kit has become a real best seller thanks to some enthusiastic facebook fans (thankyou girls!). Standing at just 5cm high this three dimensional cutie is worked in no less than five different beadwork stitches so is a real sampler too. As always my easy to follow step by step instructions will guide you through.
Choose form a complete kit, pick up extra materials packs or if you are bursting with beads choose the instructions only. Mine is firmly attached to my phone and causing all kinds of oohh awwhh's when I'm out and about.
