Feeling Festive

I’m feeling very festive this week – the mince pies are out, and Christmas shopping is well underway. Especially for my customers, it would appear!  I love wrapping and packing orders, always imagining them being opened by the recipient. We have decided to go for a real Christmas tree in our new house this year, I’m […]

In The Studio

Is it too early to mention the ‘C’ word? I’ve been preparing a few new Christmas designs ready for festive fairs later in the year, and am particularly pleased with one particular prototype of a ceramic Christmas house. A customer who has purchased a few of my ceramic houses asked if I will be making […]

‘Tis the season to be jolly…

…..Fa la la la la, la la la la. Brown paper parcels have been flying out left, right and center this week! There’s just something about brown paper parcels wrapped up with string… definitely one of my favourite things 🙂 So many people are going to be opening my ceramic plant markers on Christmas day, […]

Countdown to Christmas…

It has felt a little too early to start mentioning the ‘C’ word these past few weeks, but now that there seems to be adverts for Christmas everywhere, and shops are starting to sell Christmassy things including mince pies, I thought I’d jump on the bandwagon and launch the Christmas section of my shop. You’ll […]

As 2012 comes to an end…

I was a little delayed in publishing this post!….. Just before Christmas I spent a wonderful few days in Germany and got full swing into the festive spirit with the delicious smells from the Christmas markets, yummy German speciality food and even saw some snow. Back home it felt such a relief to send out […]

Merry Christmas!

Phew… my last orders were sent out on Tuesday. I’m now enjoying wrapping presents, making (and eating) more mince pies and sausage rolls, and getting covered in glitter writing Christmas cards! Molly loves opening her advent calender every day, although she is a bit rough with it. I think she will wonder where it’s gone […]

Seasons Greetings!

After all of the festive excitement at the Contemporary Craft Shopping Experience on Sunday, I’m now feeling very Christmassy! I’m looking forward to making some home made sausage rolls and mince pies soon. It will feel even more like Christmas this weekend as I’m off to Germany and can’t wait to visit the Christmas market […]

Happy New Year!

Hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year! I am quite pleased to say that I haven’t done much at all this past week, it has been a lovely relaxing break. When I say I haven’t done much, that is aside from eating lots of yummy food, drinking lots of wine, watching lots […]

My tree is up!!

Its feeling very Christmassy around the house now that the tree and all of the decorations are up. The theme this year is pink and gold. I like going home every day to walk into a nice cosy decorated house. My favourites are the hanging stars, and of course the ceramic Merry Christmas plaque that […]

Christmas is coming!

I thought it was snowing the other day after a quick glimpse out of the window, but it was leaves falling from the trees! I can’t wait til Christmas, its my favourite time of year. I’ve made these tree decorations and glazed them with a shiny red glaze, and a volcanic crater glaze which looks […]
