Gorgeous Things

Out on the town with my BlackBerry again, I dropped in on my good pal Jane Sehmi (pictured above). We’ve been friends for ages, since learning how to do drug-free childbirth down at the local NCT. Well, giggling and drinking coffee more like…

Jane went and splashed out one day on some gorgeous gorgeous beads and her high-powered IT executive husband took one look at the (allegedly extravagant) haul and shrewdly suggested she start a business making and selling handmade jewellery…

So she did! It’s called Sehmi Precious Jewellry and if you’re one of Jane’s mates you get the occasional invite to her lovely home, treated to tea or coffee and a viewing of the jewels.

I went over to inspect the goods and catch up with Jane, with whom I like to compare and contrast adventures of our too-fabulous-for-their-own-good teenage daughters.

The news is that they are both still far too fabulous and not quite the earnest, studious girls we hoped to raise, being far too glamorous to be seen in the company of their sad old parents, at least that’s my daughter. Jane’s may be more merciful than mine…

Meanwhile Jane displayed her jewellery in some truly imaginative and stylish ways – see photos below. I was going to buy presents for friends, but couldn’t resist. I’m keeping every single thing I bought for myself.

Lookee here…
