Lesley Gleeson of Coburg Crafts uses silver wire, chain maille and stringing techniques in her work. Lesley is a fellow blogger and you can see more of her yummy work with my delicious Greek beads here. To get you in the Greek mood, as it happens, there is also a fabulous photo of the view from her holiday villa in Corfu. Oh for some sunshine!

The Mexicana mix of ceramic washers that I sell on Beadsite is perfect for a cheer up present for yourself or others. I like how Lesley has put them on red thong. I only have navy myself and it's getting me thinking!
