All Good, Good, Good!


Things are really good, good, good here.
I have just finished this big batch of 80 felted bangles, which are heading out to a boutique in New York. Well worth the aching muscles if I do say so myself : )
And a drumroll........I got accepted for the Winter Art & Craft Fair at Aberyswyth Arts Centre which I am really happy about. I LOVE Aber arts centre its a great place to hang out, has so much going on and well a fab cafe with an amazing view over the town and the sea! It will be good to be selling some stuff locally this thingymas.
Oh and another good thing......it's only a week till I go back to Ibiza for some much needed fun & sun, although I shall be taking a big bag of rainbow fluff with me, the felting must go on! So if you need anything from the old Etsy shop before I go away - you have been warned : )

'Sally'

For those of you who have been wondering why it has been so very quiet around here.....


...............meet Sally, the new addition to the family!

She was named by my little girl, after the car from Disney's Cars - bless what a very girly name for our new blue car! So I have spent hours scouring the internet and we have been on a big tour of the UK looking at cars and I have not got much work done at all - lots of catching up to do now. Feeling inspired by her gorgeous 'Jazz Blue' paintwork and she does look happy with my Valentino Van : )

A million Rainbows later........

Been working, working, working!!! I have not quite made a million rainbows but lots and lots of lovely new goodies, all of which are now available in my Etsy shop.
I have redesigned the I - Pod classic cozie, which is now lined in hot pink felt and comes with a special little polymer clay rainbow button - all handmade by moi : )

A cute little A6 sketchbook with an inspiring rainbow cover.


The new rainbow plushie which is just so super cute & squishy you won’t want to let him go. He is sure to bring lots of rainbow happiness : )

And these funky little rainbow decorations which can be hung wherever you fancy - even have that thingymas in mind - but oh........ it's a bit soon to talk about that!

Rainbows & Buttons


Been busy making lots of these lovely Rainbow Button Cuffs!

I have also taken SO SO many photos of them, they are so fun and colourful...really great for photographing : ) I would love to make a huge piece of art with thousands of these colourful squares and buttons.
The beautiful Nandy Lola is modelling some here.

Embracing the Seasons!


I made this green & leafy treasury today on Etsy, it's part of my end of summer panic!
We have been picking blackberries for a few weeks now and I can see signs of autumn already. I am trying so hard to embrace the seasons and I really do love them all I just like spring and summer a LOT more than autumn and winter.

Busy Days


I just popped into town this morning to go to the lovely fabric shop for a few supplies and look what I saw!!!! the most fantastic RAINBOW tent in the world!!!!!!!!!! I had a 'happy attack' and felt rather strange for an hour or so : ) It's part of a funky little festival that is going on this weekend in Mach - which if I wasn't so busy I would have loved to go to. Maybe tomorrow?

This was a huge piece of rainbow felting I have been working on today, so big I had to move onto the floor - I need a 2 metre table I think! I have also been making some more bits of plain coloured felt for some other projects - and wow.... I have had a serious felty workout today!

Look at the FAB puzzle Rio came back with - how retro.... I love it, plus it was from an attic sale so a bargain for £2 and it was handmade locally too - what a find.

Funky Felted Flowers!


Here they all are, the 10 brooches I have been working SO hard on over the last few days. I love them so much and am so happy with the combination of handmade felt and craft felt. These are bold statement pieces at 16 by 11cm in size. I hope they will bring happy thoughts of summer to lots of people this winter!
'Happy Sunflower Brooch' has made it over to Etsy already!
