Hello my Beaded Beauts ๐ฟ๐
I am doing and
February challenge 2026
and yes I am a day late!

Hi my name is Cheryl, I have been running beads I need since 2021. I love, love, love my craft but probably like the rest of us time is an issue. I find beadwork very therapeutic and calming from shopping for beads to creating a vision I have in my head to a piece of jewellery. This last couple of years I have been selling at craft fairs & in shops.

I live in County Down, Northern Ireland, I'm by the sea in a town called Donaghadee. Some of you may have seen my wee town on a TV programme called Hope Street.
2026 Plans ๐
I need to up my game with promotion, and updating my website. I get the Beads I Need lost in a wee boat at sea guilts on the regular!
This last couple of years have pulled me in different directions, life has not been all sunshine & roses, plus accepting, coping and managing cancer hitting two family members. So plans I make may change, this is understandable and unpredictable! It can be tough physically and mentally but Iโm powering through as best I can, thatโs all that matters to me.

I love yoga, walking, sea swimming, when able.
Love being outdoors ๐ณ๐๐๐
I have a chronic pain & the rest, Iโll not digress on this topic, as they take up enough of my physical & mental well being and some days totally zap my mood.
