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 […]
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 […]
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 […]

My different shaped buttons are available in a few different colours and are ideal for sewing onto clothing, scarves, bags, hats, coats, cushions etc as decoration.

You might remember me mentioning a custom order I received from one of my followers on Twitter just over a month ago. The order was for a plant pot in my natural style, and I was given dimensions to work with. I had to make sure I made the pot a percentage bigger than the […]
Have you seen the latest thoughts over at Swanky Maison? I am the recent featured seller, and was asked some spotlight questions which are now live on the site. Head over and have a read here to find out how I go about coming up with new designs, my work environment, my perfect home, my […]
‘Frosted Lake Wavy Dish’ Now that the sun seems to be shining more recently, I’ve been photographing some of my work outside. The natural light is so much better than relying on the bursts that shine through the window, lights in the house, and the flash on the camera. I’ve found that the natural light […]
I’ve been busy making lots of new work this week. It has been nice spending time out in the workshop. I’ve discovered that I’m motivated by music! I seem to get more done when listening to a CD or the radio, and spend less time faffing. The music seems to keep me working constantly. I’ve […]
