Just when I thought I had the right idea about numbers of craft fairs to book ( two a month maybe!) I find myself booked out for four consecutive weekends in July. I didn’t mean to do that but I am looking forward to four new venues at which to show my wares. One ideaContinue reading “July’s joys”

  I am delighted to say that I will be attending Banbury Art Fest on Sunday in Spiceball Park with my colourful glass. The event is part of the Banbury & District Show. The weather is going to be lovely so come along and say Hello. I’m looking forward to meeting up with friends andContinue reading “Banbury Art Fest”

Thank you so much to everyone who came to see my lovely glass, those who bought some to take home and especially my band of helpers who assisted me in keeping me company and making lots of cups of tea. So, what’s next? On 9th June I am taking part in Art Fest, which isContinue reading “Life after Art Weeks”

Tomorrow is the last day for seeing all of my colourful glass in one place. Because I have a lot of pieces I can only take some of it to craft fairs. It’s a difficult choice I have to make when I choose things to take with me. I love it all but some justContinue reading “Roll up, roll up. Last day of Art Weeks”

Well, I open for Art Weeks again tomorrow. I am open from 11am to 6pm until Monday. I have lots of lovely cake and some rather gorgeous glass (though I say it myself). I was playing with some frit (glass equivalent of grit) and scattered a little powdered glass in some clear frit and developedContinue reading “Open tomorrow”

I had some lovely visitors last weekend, one of whom bought my curvy edged dish so I have made another one. This time it’s based on grey with red and yellow highlights. It is about 35cm across, large enough to make quite a statement on your coffee table, or to put fruit in. I amContinue reading “Second weekend for Art Weeks”

Well, the weather clouds brought us rain so it was slow to start but once the clouds lifted a little we had a nice bunch of folk round to see what I get up to in my spare time (what spare time I hear you say)!  Ably assisted by one of my friends as co-hostContinue reading “Art weeks first day”

Art Weeks is nearly here and we’re all ready. Cakes are made, glass is ready, I’ve even repainted my studio bench! I have had time to play with an interesting glass concept this week which has resulted in a glorious rainbow dish. Yes, it was meant to have holes in it but it has turnedContinue reading “Art Weeks tomorrow”

It’s been a busy day setting out all of my glorious glass in the gazebo and conservatory. It all looks very colourful and looks stunning in the sunshine. Here’s s sneak preview of some of it It looks like the weather is not going to be wet on Saturday so I’m hoping that folks willContinue reading “Art Weeks minus 2”

It’s getting closer, but unfortunately so are the rain clouds. It may be showery on Saturday – not best weather for visiting people so it might be quiet. However, we have plenty of spaces in which to shelter and lovely cake to eat. I’ve been busy baking lemon drizzle and ginger cakes, flapjack and shortbreadContinue reading “Art Weeks minus 3 days”
