Hello strangers! How's things?

I've neglected Suicide Girls lately, well, modelling in general really. I've been putting all of my efforts into my jewellery and design work. It's going really slow due to the lack of funds but I'm putting every penny I get into it. I can't remember the last time I bought something for myself! Luckily my boyfriend can see my hunger and drive to make this work so he supports me by putting a roof over my head and feeding me Mac and Cheese. I'm too stubborn to let him help me with buying tools and stock, I want to be able to say I've truly done this on my own.

I'm enjoying discovering new places and inspirations, since starting the jewellery I've started going to more museums and exhibitions. If you know any cool and interesting, free or cheap places to visit in London please do tell!

So here's a little snippet of what I've been getting up to in picture form miao!!

OK, so I've been living in London for about 3 months and as of yet, I've been working solidly. Stupid question but are those museums free to visit? I've been dying to get myself to the British Museum since I got here but haven't had the time (or money) to go yet. I think I heard that museum's and galleries are free but I'm sure that can't be the case....

The jewels you make are incredibly beautiful... And the prices are really good too! I've liked your FB page and I'm strongly considering the idea of gifting my fiancée one of your jewels. I specially liked the blue pendant. smile

And that's a lot of museums you've been going to... I'm taking notes - I'll have to visit at least some of these in the future, when I'm able to visit London. biggrin

Good luck with your shop!
