What a week it’s been! Stage 4 restrictions here

What a week it’s been! Stage 4 restrictions here in Victoria are being rolled out and like every other Melbournian - especially those in business - I’m feeling all the feels
.
Juggling personal crisis, chronic illness and everyday life with what COVID has brought, isn’t easy but I am taking each day at a time and I’m for the people who have been checking in and sending messages of support. I really am so thankful
.
I haven’t been on socials as often as I’d like as I’ve been super busy trying to digitalise @thewhimsicalbead - getting stock online and trying to offer some kind of workshop experience for those at home. Crazy busy!
.
Whilst I haven’t been creating much jewellery and artwork lately, I’ve had a super productive last few months and so the website is stocked with lots of beautiful pieces ready to be shipped.
I can also send directly to the recipient if you are wanting to send a gift during these difficult times. Just let me know during checkout or shoot me a message and we can organise something special for your loved one
.
To those in Melbourne. I feel you. I’m with you. We will get through this. Do the right thing. Stay safe. Reach out if you are struggling. Please try to support small business where you can. If we don’t, they might just not be there on the other side
.
Thank you for your support. Sending lots of love xx

I’ve not spent much time in my studio the last few months but I’m working overtime in @thewhimsicalbead studio. Covid-19 combined with my own personal/ health issues has brought challenges that I didn’t anticipate I’d be dealing with in 2020
.
On the plus side, these things have forced me to reevaluate a lot both personally and business- wise. One thing i do know is that I’m so thankful for The Whimsical Bead. It has led me to many wonderful people and given me a purpose in life where I would likely not be able to work otherwise. For now, it needs my undivided attention but I’m hoping to be back in the creative studio in the not too distant future

Working in @thewhimsicalbead studio today and reminiscing about the days where I used to spend hours upon hours in my creative studio with my polymer clay
.
It’s been a long time between sessions and I miss it. I can’t clay as much as I used to because of my health issues but at the moment it’s also due to time. Pivoting @thewhimsicalbead in COVID times needs to be top priority
.
This is one of most favourite pieces to date - ‘Odyssey’. All hollow polymer clay beads plus a handmade polymer toggle clasp.
.
Are you spending more or less time creating due to COVID?

Sometimes when I’m feeling a bit down, all I need to do is rummage through a few of my ‘stashes’. This one is my favourite 💖
