Molly’s outdoor antics

It will be Molly’s 1st birthday in a couple of weeks, how time flies! She loves being out in the garden now, although she’s still a bit of a wimp and jumps at every single noise and still sometimes comes bolting through the cat flap if she gets scared. Just recently she especially likes jumping […]

Ceramic Clocks

I’m pleased to show you these new clocks as I haven’t made any for a while. I enjoy displaying them at craft fairs, they usually sit on the top shelf of my stall, leaning against their own individual display stands, attracting a lot of eyes. Decorative Rustic Clock I currently have clocks available in either […]

Stone baked Pizza & Gallery Display

Do you remember the cast iron burner (scroll down on that link) that my Dad got last summer? Look at it now! It was originally pure black but it has been out all through winter and weathered with a rustic effect. I think it looks better like this, it gives it more characteristic. Last week […]

Disaster Fair

What a disappointing weekend! The weather was absolutely gorgeous, and the country show I was at in Althorp, Northampton attracted plenty of people over the 2 days. But the customers didn’t seem to be spending much, they just wanted to look. All the other stall holders said the same, and I don’t think any of […]

Hang some love up in your home

I’m back from my show over the weekend, it was absolutely boiling! Stay tuned for details about my weekend tomorrow, and in the meantime… Everyone should have some love sprinkled around the place… Whether it be a wedding gift, a treat for someone special, or a decorative feature to hang up in your home, garden […]

Folksy Friday – Travel

I’m thinking about travel this week – From flying in an aeroplane on my recent holiday, to packing my car and driving to my craft fair this weekend, and my order for the ceramic pendants travelling in the post to their new home. I decided to host my first ever Folksy Friday and the theme […]

Order for Pendants

When I got back from my holiday I had lots of e-mails waiting for me. One of them was from someone asking if I could make a selection of ceramic pendants that they could use for their jewellery. The lady wanted a range of butterflies, hearts and tear drop shapes. She also specified which pendants […]

New Bowls

Here are a selection of some new bowls, I hope you like them! I’ll show you some more next week. Most of these bowls, plus many more, are available to purchase at my online shop. If you are really keen to buy a specific item, please be sure to do so before Friday, as my […]

Monday Mood Board

As well as enjoying a very relaxing Sunday, I spent some time out in my workshop yesterday. Although I wasn’t making anything, I was sorting a few things out, having a tidy up, and photographing some new work in the garden. I often have days like this where I get sudden urges to jot down […]

Bird of Paradise

The bird of paradise flower is one of my favourites. In Tunisia we spotted some buds outside our hotel that were due to flower. My Dad has had a bird of paradise plant in his conservatory (below) for about 10 years and it hasn’t flowered since he bought it. I would love one, but I […]

New Vases

Each of my handmade vases are unique one-off pieces, so no two are ever the same – just like every other piece of my work. I use similar decorating techniques on each vase, although the decoration is applied differently each time. Even if I tried to recreate the decoration on a particular vase, it would […]
