Sue has been making beads for several years now – and would happily do so all day everyday if time permitted. For many years she was a psychiatric nurse,  she now does this, making and teaching -a rather less stressful life!

The aspect that she enjoys  best of all is making little glass animal sculptures, which come in their own box – hence the apt title Friend In A Box. Sue loved the ones that you used to be able to buy in seaside resorts made on the end of the glass rods and learnt how to make them herself – from mice and elephants to sheep, bees and turtles – they appeal to adults and children alike

Sue’s skill at making original multi coloured glass beads has led to her creating brooches and earrings. Her beads can also be purchase singly and as a set for those interested in making their own jewellery.
