Need to come out of hibernation mode

I don't seem to be able to get moving this year, made a lot of jewellery for a craft fair in November and slowed right down after that. I've done a very little since then and can't seem to getmy mojo going again. Somebody give me a kick or some inspiration. This is a piece in progress, I love this stone, it shone out of a pebble ridge at the back of Sidmouth beach, I had to have it, sorry Sidmouth but I don't think it was much of a loss to your sea defences. I think the wire wrapping is working, not entirely sure where that tail is going to end up, possibly down parallel with the one coming up from the bottom. with a matching 'blob'

Ramblings

Hello, just watched Moon on DVD very interesting film, proper science fiction and a good thriller too. Saw Avatar at the pictures on Saturday loved it! I'm being very lazy about jewellery making at the moment. I have some very nice pebbles from South Devon to work with, by the way I take maybe one or two small pebbles from any beach as they are necessary to the beach surviving, in fact some beaches have scary threatening fines for removing pebbles! I need to learn about the geology of these stones as I have no idea what I'm using.

This one is a small (1" approx) pebble from North Devon, not polished at all just as it came off the beach, drilled and with a silver mount. Photographed on it's home beach.
