Purple owl bag charm

Another bag charm, with soft felt purple owl, glass beads and silver-coloured clasp and chains.








Brooch "Life stages"

Inspired by my previous work - the life stages of fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, a view under a microscope. A GFP-tagged and, let's say, an mCherry-tagged nuclear proteins - pick your favourites! Some dirt in the field - let's be realistic. Charcoal-grey felt, green and red seed beads and embroidery.

Leather heart brooch - from the olden times

I made this brooch when was at school, using some leather pieces my grandmother had. I don't remember where the beads came from... I was very proud of it at the time, and still am (minus the stitches).
