Something Golden This Way Comes…
Each week, we pick the best bits from across the Guild — the moments that made us laugh, cheer, cry into our glitter, or fall in love with a fluffy studio companion.
From standout makers to legendary chaos, Guild Gold is where the sparkle settles and the highlights shine.

💌 Guild Gold: Silver Week went like this 💌
This week’s colour prompt was silver — and the Guild delivered chaos, sparkle, and unexpected rabbits.
🐉 Ceri (Dragons of Shropshire) stormed ahead with a heartfelt thank-you on her Member of the Day post (+2), then exploded onto the silver prompt with not one but TWO magical creatures: a Lightspout Dancer dragon (+3) and an Emotional Support Bunny (+3). Current total: 8 pts and counting.
⭐️ Fran (Felt Petal Shop) kicked things off by sharing our Glitter Hall of Fame post with a big sparkle stamp of approval (+5). Bloom HQ showing the way, as always.
🐇 Kath (Katy’s Kwilts & Teddy Bears) first doubted her silver stash, then unleashed couture chaos with a mad white rabbit in a silver leather coat (+3 photo, +1 comment). She later accepted her Sparkle Champion crown with sass (+1). Current total: 5 pts.
💍 Ro (Blackberry Wedding Designs) slipped in silently but beautifully with a silver anniversary keepsake image (+3). Classic Ro — elegant but strong.
🌈 Sharon (Gert Lush Designs) owned her Glitter Hall honourable mention crown (+1), then doubled down with a sweet “thank you” on her Member of the Day post (+2). Current total: 3 pts and a shiny “Chaos Giggler / Satan Machine Wrangler” badge.
☕ Carol (Roberts Homewares) accused Slade of flirting 😏🫦 and launched a coffee-fuelled side plot in her comment (+1). Current total: 1 pt and rising if the rebellion takes hold.
📊 Chaos Poll (Tues): 10 votes — and Snack Bringer reigned supreme with 40%. The Guild has spoken: biscuits > everything else.
💌 Guild Buzz — Wednesday Whirlwind
The midweek energy was strong today — confessions, bad advice, and beads that contain the galaxy itself.
🧵 Supply Confessions
Joanna admitted to spending fortunes on serviettes for decoupage (and hoarding crystal beads like a true Magpie Queen).
Fran nearly derailed us all with her drawers full of felt balls 🙈 — officially now a Guild unit of measurement.
Elizabeth stood firm that you can never have too much yarn 😂 and reminded us she’s definitely in the right Guild.
Kelly burst onto the scene with bead photos so dazzling they looked like bottled galaxies 🌌🤩.
📝 Ask Slade — Bad Advice Edition
Linda shared the absolute gem of bad advice she once heard: “All windows are square” 🤣 (architects everywhere wept).
Ceri came in with the horror: “Get it made in China, it’ll free up your time.” She immediately shut it down with a dragon roar 🐉✨
Kath dropped the classic clanger: “Being self-employed is easy” — entire Guild cackled. Luckily, she knew better thanks to her OH’s years of experience.
Elizabeth piled in with gasps, giggles, and insider wisdom. The back-and-forth between them earned both extra sparkle points and the unofficial title of Bad Advice Banter Queens. 👑😂
Linda revealed someone once tried to tell her “all windows are square” 🤦♀️ — stained glass saints everywhere rolled their eyes.
Ceri fought off the worst offender: “Get it made in China, it’ll free up your time.” She clapped back Guild-style: “How ‘bout no?!” 🐉🔥
Fran, meanwhile, claimed she’s never had bad advice — which we all know is because nobody’s brave enough to try Bloom HQ. 🌸✨
See who won the week here in the Glitter Hall of Fame!
