I would like to wish you a Happy New Year and a healthy one too. My husband and I have both been ill – only with a nasty cold – over the holiday period, boo hiss! At least we weren’t both at our worst at the same time. However, we’ll be soon back to normal andContinue reading “Happy New Year”

I’ve finished my last craft fair of the season but still got a few Christmas decorations left if you fancy any. They are £4.95 plus postage. The forecast for the UK for tomorrow is snow! It’s such a rarity I think we’re all looking forward to it. My husband and I will be spending theContinue reading “Christmas”

Next Saturday is my last Craft Fair for 2017 so the final chance to buy something for Christmas. I am also closing my commission book after the weekend as I cannot guarantee getting a piece completed and delivered before Christmas. So….roll up, roll up to Towcester Town Hall, 9.30am – 4pm and see what goodies IContinue reading “Last Craft Fair of the season”

                 I have two craft fairs next weekend. On Saturday I have two tables at Thame Town Hall. I will be selling my glass pieces alongside my colleagues who are having a table to raise money for our NHS department. They will be selling all manner of hand made or handContinue reading “Craft Fairs next weekend”

At this time of year the simple poppy becomes a highly significant image in the UK. In case you don’t know why I will explain, if you do know please jump to the next paragraph. During World War I, the ground where trench warfare took place was constantly disturbed. In June, the simple wild poppyContinue reading “Poppies”

When folk come for a workshop I like to guide them on using the materials (glass, mosaics etc) and suggest things that they can make but I think is is also important for them to use their own ideas and creativity. This was particularly shown when a couple came for a fused glass workshop recently.Continue reading “Fusing Glass Creativity”

    ‘Tis the season to get snuggly things made ready for the winter. This year I am offering to make these sling covers for just £18 incl UK p&p. “What is it?” you may ask. If you carry your baby in a sling, during the winter your coat won’t fit around you both soContinue reading “Baby sling cover, 2017 colours”

I am having a craft stall at Banbury’s Canal Day on Sunday (the weather forecast looks grim but we can hope for a break in the rain!). As it is a market stall, effectively outside, I thought that a wind chime would be a perfect thing to make to drive the stall holders mad but lookContinue reading “Autumn Colours”

I’ve finally decided to publish my latest Brochure. It’s always difficult to know when to publish it as I am creating new products and ideas all the time. However, I think it’s time to show the world what I have in stock. The newest creation is a soap dish large enough for a standard bar of soap. TheContinue reading “New Brochures”

I’m sure I’ve mentioned before that there’s no such thing as a mistake in art work – it’s just a creative opportunity and, although a piece of glass may not come out of the kiln as the artist might expect it still is a beautiful piece that someone will like. So, with that as aContinue reading “Another Creative Opportunity!”
