As part of our sketchbook project (see first post here), we are aiming to meet up once a week to focus on some drawing in different locations. Our first meet up was at a local allotment on Wednesday last week. It was such a refreshing change to be out and about surrounded by inspirational shapes, […]
Following on from my trip to New Designers, I mentioned that myself and Megan Ashwell Designs were going to be challenging ourselves with a new project (if you missed that post, you can view it here). Our plan for the project is to chose a theme to work with, and produce at least one drawing […]
Last Sunday I was in Caldecott Park in Rugby for ‘Art in the Park’, a celebration of local artists surrounded by beautiful trees. This was my first ever experience of having a stall outside being completely uncovered, so we were really lucky to have the sun shining all day. It was great to get some […]
Last Friday I took a day out with Megan from Megan Ashwell Designs and visited the New Designers 2014 exhibition at The Business Design Centre in London. Myself and Megan both met at a local fair a couple of years ago, and it turned out we had very similar interests and passions. I now own […]
One of my latest commissions fresh from the kiln involved a beach scene from where the customer grew up and spent a lot of their childhood. I always enjoy working on special pieces that have a nice story behind them. This was the original image supplied by the customer below, of Porthmeor Beach. in St […]
This story melts my heart… I am so impressed with these students who have used my wind chimes as inspiration for their school project, and it has been a fantastic journey watching their progress… I was initially contacted by Jen Nelson, the school teacher at a school in Moorhead, Minisota, USA. After hearing about the […]
If you buy The Sunday Express, you may have spotted my Ceramic Rose Clock featured on one of the first few pages in S Magazine that comes free with the paper last Sunday 1st June. If you missed it, have a peek below! The response from the feature has been incredible… So many orders are […]
On Saturday I competed in my first ever One Day Event on Dizzy. Having never took part in any serious eventing before, I was extremely nervous but very proud of myself for giving it all a good go, and Dizzy too! Despite being a little over excited, she behaved herself well and we both tried […]
I am delighted with this four page double spread feature about me and my work in Italian Magazine ‘Casaromantica Shabby Chic’, on sale May 2014. My ‘Moonlit Meadow’ wall hanging was also published in Mollie Crea this month ~ the Spanish version of Mollie Makes magazine. Amazing stuff!
Best Made Local Maker’s Market I had a great day in Buckingham on Saturday. Meeting new customers, viewing other makers work and networking are always enjoyable at these kind of events. My vases seemed to be the most popular of my pieces on the day. It’s funny how one item such as coasters are the […]
Wow – Since moving house a couple of weeks ago, the change of my work space going from a small wooden shed to a garage is a pretty big transformation. I now have cupboard storage space, a nice clean open floor to move around, and actual brick walls surrounding me! I am now naming my […]
Further to the popularity of the ceramic houses I made last year, I am excited to share some new ones with you – Fresh from the kiln! I have had ‘house stuff’ on the brain for the last few months since buying our first house. When I unloaded the kiln last week I realised just […]
