New Garden Section

April 19, 2012 Charlotte No comments

All we seem to be getting weather-wise lately is rain, rain and more rain. But at least the garden will be kept happy. I’ve left it a little late this year but I can’t wait to start tending to my flower pots and plants.

Brand NEW to my website this week ~ a Garden Section where you will find all ceramic pieces relating to the garden in one place.

From wall planters to pots, wind chimes to plant markers… If you are looking for a unique gift for a garden lover, or even large sculptural vessel statement pieces, you are in the right place!

Happy browsing

Fresh from the kiln

June 06, 2011 Charlotte 1 Comment

Following on from some of my dandelion designs on bowls, here are a few on vases, I’m really pleased with them. Each are indivually handmade and although the forms of the vases above are the same, each one is decorated differently, no two are ever the same.

This set of six magnets below would brighten up a fridge or any other magnetic surface, and with the lovely engraved words, they are bound to put a smile on everyones faces!

Here are a set of 8 coasters featuring my pine tree design, that were ordered a couple of weeks ago by a customer in Scotland. I only had a set of 2 in stock, so I enjoyed making some more. I love the natural look to them, they would look gorgoeous outside on a garden table too.

I’ll be churning out lots of new pieces this week, so pop back for some updates from the workshop and some sneak peaks of work in progress!

I’ve also been featured by Laura of Cards and Candles For All Occasions this week, so if you fancy reading more about me check out her blog here

Commissioned Vase

November 04, 2010 Charlotte 1 Comment

This vase was made as a Christmas gift for the customers Mum. She gave me the wording she wanted to be engraved and trailed around the vase, and I think it has turned out quite nice. The overall finish is definitely organic and natural. I love the subtle effects of the surface decoration, it reminds me of a snowy mountain.

I have e-mailed photos of the vase to the customer and am really pleased that she is happy with it, it’s always a worry making commissioned items, especially when they are personalised.

If any of my blog readers are interested in a commissioned piece of work, personalised or not, feel free to contact me for details. Whatever your requirements, I would be happy to help! Now is the best time to get in touch to avoid disappointment on delivery if the item needs to be with you in time for Christmas.

New Vases

May 14, 2010 Charlotte 2 Comments

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 not be exactly the same. That’s what I love about the organic nature of the way that I decorate my work, each piece is different and keeps my ideas fresh.

This new textured surface on these pure white vases below is my latest favourite. The appearance of the vases is quite soft and subtle, but they are still tactile to the touch.

I’ve been melting some glass into the bases of some vases. It is like a little bit of hidden glimmering treasure when you look inside.

I’m feeling proud to show off these new landscape designs below. The pattern, texture and colour turned out perfectly and I think it really compliments the form of the vases, flowing all the way around the exterior.
