Gillian McMurray: Artist & Craftsperson

It's been a sad time for me over the last few months. Last October I lost my grandmother. She was 94 and played a huge part in my whole life. It's not everyone who has had the luxury of such a wonderful woman in their lives for so long and I am very grateful for that. At the start of January I also lost my grandfather of 103 years. He was also a constant in my life and their loss has left quite a void. So it has been, and continues to be, a trying time. Thankfully I have a close family and we are all pulling together to find the light at the end of the tunnel. So much so that I have actually created some new beads for my Etsy store. The first lot sold out within a few days so it was a mad dash to come up with some new designs. Here are just a few of the images:
