Happy Pumpkin Soup Time

Charlie and I had a pumpkin growing competition but he won.

    

Jane's Smart Art Halloween window where I have some very "dark" blackboards on display.

Its that time of year to snuggle up to the log burner and make your face glow.


Meanwhile I'm busy flapping my fairy wings and getting all my pretties together for the NSPCC Christmas Present Fair on the 20th November. 
I hope to solve all your pressie dilemmas with my extremely personal work.
This year lots of vintage glassware and clay labels on my stall.
Please come and support this very good cause...xxx
Till next time! 

Norfolk Mini Break

My family and I went for a mini break to the seaside in Norfolk.

We stayed in Burnham Deepdale Backpackers Hostel, which I have to say was very swish, with our own bathroom.
It was really good fun cooking and socialising with everyone in the large barn/ lounge area.

Norfolk was as delightful as ever, with gorgeous coves, big sandy beaches, moderate waves and happy faces.
Charlie enjoyed kiting and body boarding.

My special friend Rachael who was staying in Wells said we must go to The Hoste Hotel in Burnham Market. Wow loved it....x

Charlie and I spent a very happy few minutes in The Big Blue Sky, Wells. A fascinating shop with everything made in Norfolk.


We visited Walsingham and took the Wells and Walsingham Light Railway, a 30 minute journey to the seaside and harbour town of Wells, from the picturesque town of Walsingham, famed for centuries as a centre of pilgrimage.

It was a scenic journey with five bridges through lovely countryside with breathtaking creatures including an inquisitive hare, quails, pheasants and mother hen with her chicks...x

I have come back all inspired by the colours of the shore, marine shades of watery blue and green so I shall be using more for my statement pieces of up-cycled vintage one off finds.

Till next time.
With love x

Creative Recycling

With a little thought, intuition, design and some old items, it's amazing what can be rustled up.

This little sign I made last night to compliment my work on display at  Smart Art Studio.

Really looking forward to our girlie weekend next week.

Enjoy the sunshine everybody.

Love and kisses

Retail Concession Now Open in Art Studio

I am pleased to announce that some of my lovely items are on display at Jane Richardson's "Smart Art" studio in Church Road, West Mersea, Colchester.

If you are in the area why not pop in, have a polly poke nose and then a delicious ice cream in the nearby "Cake Hole".
