- About me
Hi all I am Laura from South Africa, Love working with my hands and doing a lot of creations not only in bead work but in Oil Painting, Ribbon embroidery, Wedding Cake Iceing, Making my own Clay Roses and so many more Do a lot of my own sewing and knitting and Crocheting. And through all of this I am also a Caterer so I am a very busy lady :O) but I really enjoy it because it really does keep me young :O) Also I really am a jack of all trades and a master of none lol lol My first love ws hairdressing, I was a Hairdresser for 25 years but had to have a back operation which put an end to my passion and dreams as a Hairdresser. But, to day I am not sorry because I enjoy all my art and my work I do now. I am a mom to four wonderful children. My eldest is 38y, then 36y, then 30y, then 29y. Two Boys and two girls. I am blessed with 2 grandchldren as well. I am Married, and this year it will be 40years. Wow, cannot believe it myself heeheehee. It seems like a life time. I am a animal lover and love my dogs and my Kitties. They are now my children and just love to spoil them rotten. That is all I think for now.....Bless you Regards Laura
- Experience and Creativity
Taken Classes and always doing more classes, because there is always something new to learn. I love learning new techniques and Ideas, and done quite a few projects. Have made Tiarahs for the brides and Bridle Jewelery, made jewelery that I have sold. Made quite a few Oil Paintings but sold none as I have done more for my own home. Done a made a lot of Wedding Cakes and have a few for this year still. Made some Ribbon Embrroidery but for my home as well have not markeded my work as yet :O). Oh' I have also taken classes in New Born Baby doll's. But this did not take off so well as this was rather an expensive venture. Loved it but my family thought it was too freaky these life like dolls, lol lol. Hence i gave up on the Dolls.
