Leicester-Lady
Welcome to my small corner of the eBay World
Hello, my name is Sandy, I live in a quiet corner of Leicestershire with my husband Gerry and our collection of moggies (cats) and chickens.
How this all began for me.
I have been ill (with M.E.) for several years, and eventually got to the stage when I had to give up work about twelve years ago. At first I was too ill to do anything, but eventually I realised that I desperately needed an outlet for my creative energies.
I took up spinning, wonderful, very therapeutic too, but not going to earn me a living, sadly.
A long, long time ago I used to make jewellery for a craft shop in Nottingham
- something I thoroughly enjoyed, and could easily be done from home.
I can't get out to craft markets and fairs, so working from home and selling via eBay is pefect for me and a lot of other people like me.
As well as designing my own jewellery, (take a look at my web site on http://www.picturetrail.com/leicester-lady for examples)
I also have a collection of vintage beads and jewellery
that I occasionally offer for sale by auction (when I can bear to part with them!).
I am now predominantly a bead & jewellery making supplies seller, which began almost by accident.
I started selling off the beads I had in stock that were surplus to my own requirements,
but this became so popular that I am now regularly importing beads and related items,
(like my ever-growing range of satin cord), especially for resale.

Here I would like to take the opportunity to say a heartfelt
THANK YOU
to my growing following of greatly appreciated regular, repeat customers
some of you have been 'with me' for years,
you obviously have an eye for quality and value!
