Jazz me up.

I'm in the process of making a nice byzantine weave necklace in dolly size. Weee! I got my stainless steel rings from Beadsisters yesterday, so I was able to start doing stuff! But that meant that I put aside my choker experiments. Which was a good thing as I don't have any pink thread to do the next choker... I hardly ever have the need for pink thread, so I have none. Blargh. Need to go into town on Tuesday I think, as I should be off then, and the little sewing shop should be open. 

Pan says hi, with the first experimental choker (that you can't really see fully):
And this is the one that has been put away for the time being:
And what I am working on at the moment: 


You can see the short strands of byzantine, which will be the chain, but between the strands there will be the larger rings with the red glass beads inside the ring. I hope it looks as good as I think it will! xD

I didn't want to just make this a non piccy post, that's why the random in-progress pictures- I didn't manage to take presentable pictures of Pan with the finished choker, so that has to be for some other time.

RANT TIME.
Gooood looord how incompetent do you have to be to leave the front door open to the house that you are showing around, if your main duties in your job involve opening doors, showing people around houses and CLOSING DOORS?!?!?! AAAARGH! So, yeah, uh. We had a viewing for the house we are living in a couple of days ago, and this woman from our agency came to show this random family the house, right? Well, she came, she showed, and she DID NOT CLOSE THE FRONT DOOR! WTF!??!!? If me and my house mate wouldn't have been home, we could have been robbed blind! Seriously! How incompetent do you really need to be to not close ONE frikkin door!? But at least the next day when I called them to shout at their incompetence, they FINALLY, after about three months, called the landlord and got him to come in the next day, to have a look at the washing machine. WOW. All it took was them to fuck up and then we get the landlord to come over? Great. I hate agencies. Complete shite. I wish we could afford our own home. All we need is to win the lottery for that to happen... Sigh.

Damn. I'm annoyed again. I think I'll put some NCIS on and continue with my necklace. Aloha!
