About once a month Andre the Pygmy Hedgehog has a bath. Pygmy hedgehogs are prone to having dry and sore skin so I use his special body wash and a tooth brush and give him a gentle wash to help sooth him. He seems to like being in the water and is very good at standing still whilst I lather him up and make sure he is all clean. Here are some pictures of him in the bath and getting dried. The picture of him sticking his tongue out is just after he was rewarded with a meal worm treat. I think he looks very handsome after his pamper!

I told you the other day about our new little ‘herb garden’ on our balcony. I was delighted to go out yesterday and see our first tiny tomatoes growing on our tomato plant! I love tomatoes and can’t wait until the whole plant is covered in luscious ripe red fruit!

Just lately I have had the urge to revisit some of my earlier designs. When I first started jewellery design, I began by making these sterling silver charm bracelets, they quickly became my signature piece of jewellery! I just loved cramming lots of silver charms and beads onto the chain. I also adore using the diffferent sterling silver charms that are available. It’s been so long since I have made one of these luxurious charm bracelets that I was itching to get making one again. My favourite part has to be the stunning dragonfly toggle clasp which is sure to be a talking point!
This bracelet is adorned with beautiful sterling silver charms, including a mushroom, dragonfly, flower, humming bird and key. I’ve tried to add lots of depth to the jewellery design by attaching lots of sparkly beads, lamp work beads and freshwater pearls. My aim is that each time you look at it you spot something different!

Now that Mark and I have such a large balcony we thought it would be a good idea to grow some plants and herbs on there. We both love cooking and we love to use fresh ingredients. Lots of the recipes we use lots of lovely fragrant fresh herbs so we thought having lots growing on our balcony would be perfect! We had a lovely weekend when Mark’s father and Wife came to see us and they had grown us lots of herbs ready for us to sit on the balcony. It looks lovely on there now and the smell is amazing… I can’t wait to get cooking with them this weekend!
