Life

Hello everyone!

I firstly have some very sad news, my beautiful Nan unfortunately passed away at the weekend.  She was such a massive support (as were all my grandparents) in my life and we were very close.  One thing my nan always taught me was that I must keep working through any hard times, she was an inspiration to many with all the battles she has faced.

Me, my nan and my sister.

Since she would want me to carry on I have decided over the coming weeks I am going to try and focus on making some sympathy cards as this is a theme I wouldn't usually think of making to.

In the meantime I have a few products which I was working on late last year before our lovely Christmas and New Year.
My framed products. 
This frame shows some Seaham Glass which I found on Seaham beach.  Seaham used to have glass works along the seafront and at the end of every shift the broken and unwanted glass was thrown into the sea, over the years this has been polished by the waves and sand and eventually washes up on shore.  I decided to take it home and have framed it.  Very simple but effective, don't you agree?

This frame matches one of my cushions which you can find here on my website.  It is fabric off cuts which look amazing once they are framed.

I love this frame, I can do many different colours in the hearts, even multi-coloured if you preferred.  I cut each small heart and stick it into my heart shape, I then add 3 small rhinestones in a coordinating colour.

I do have a small selection of frames available to buy on my website.  Each design in the frames are handmade and therefore will slightly vary.  If you would like any other colour ways of the hearts just contact me on my website or on my Facebook page.  I have also added some new products to my Etsy shop today.

Hope you've enjoyed my new products.
Bye for now!

It's been far too long!

Hello everyone!

It's been far too long since I posted on here. I have been so busy that I feel like I haven't even had time to breathe!! I have spent so many hours making products for my craft fair which happened last weekend, although it wasn't as successful as I had hoped it had been I do now have the bug for doing craft fairs and am already looking for another to do.

Here are a couple of photos from my fair and I hope you like the look of it.




On the left side is a collection of the product I did which includes memory boxes, cushions, frames, cards, tealight holders and my pocket mirrors.  On the right is the collection my aunt and uncle did which were driftwood and seaglass images, also some embroidered pieces.

I will be uploading closer images of my cushions and frames in the coming weeks!  Thank you for reading.  Also don't forget to take a quick peak at my Etsy page which has some products on and I will be adding more soon.

Bye for now!

Sneaky post!

Hello everyone!

I know I don't normally post on a Saturday but I am wanting to share some images of a competition I entered and I kind of need your help to win it!

I entered a competition on Ohh Deer which was to design 3 cushions which could potentially be sold on their website should I win.  Now here is where you lovely lot come into it... to win the competition I need to sell as many cushions as possible to show my design is right for their website.  I'll post a link to each of my cushions alongside the designs which I am going to show you now.  If you don't want to purchase my cushions could you please just pass the message on? Thank you in advance!!
Here is the more exciting bit, my designs!
