Cheers!

Just a quick note from me and the 'Distinguished Gentleman' below.
(I had the delight of being commissioned to create him in the past week.
A husky, wearing a bow tie and drinking a glass of sherry.
What a nice thing to do and then the bonus of getting paid for it!)

Well, I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and New Year and I shall see you on the other side, if not before.

Have a good one.

Commission for a brooche = One I want to keep for myself

So one of my loveliest friends Sarah has been in touch and asked for a custom made brooche.
It's for her mum for Xmas (let's hope she doesn't look at my blog!).
Well I made it today and it came out good.
Just wish I could keep it for myself, still I could always make another.
Never as much fun, when it's for yourself though.

Well, this is what it looks like.

 

Treasury list makes front page on Etsy!

So as well as working on commissions I've been keeping one eye on Etsy.
I was added to a treasury list by the lovely Briana Rose, you can see here fabulous rings and other jewellry here.
Whilst looking at my Etsy site, I noticed I'd attracted a lot of people who had added me as one of their 'favourites'. It's always nice when people appreciate what you do, so I was chuffed with that.
Then whilst chatting on  Facebook to a person I have befriended who has a love for the Singer Irish and Cornely sewing machines (Jerry Lee, check out his embroidered cowboy shirts, they're great), he informed me that Briana's list had made front page on Etsy!
Briliant. So two more sales for me today, one to Latvia, one to the US.
Thank you to my buyers and to Briana.

The treasury is called Sweet somethings, take a look!

New Cards on Etsy

Grump No 1, Grump No 2 and Pug in Pucci have now made it into card and postcard form.
Soon there will be a Pug Pack, thanks to an idea by my lovely friend Miss Loder!
Cheers you.
Got to get cracking on two commissions tomorrow so might call it a day now and get up early!
Good night all, sweet dreams.

Great, cheap advertising on a lovely site, run by a lovely lady!
Thanks Kate for the opportunity to be on your site for the next 6 weeks.
I'm very happy.

Super Dooper!

So the Art Supermarket was at the weekend.
Was great to be a part of it and to spend time with Miss Loder and get to know Lucy a bit better too!
The place looked ace, so thanks to everyone that played a part in making it so fabulous!
Lots of fine goodies were on offer, some of which I now have in my possession.
Cheers to everyone that bought a card, postcard or brooche, I hope you enjoy!

Anyway here's a few snaps from the event.
