Stockings, birds and pom poms

It's been an uphill struggle lately but things seem to be coming along. Recently been sharing a stall with the lovely Emily at another craft fair. This time at the Royal Masonic school for girls in Ricksmanworth. The building is stunning with beautiful lanterns and intricate stained glass windows. Unfortunately I completely forgot to take some pictures!
However I did take some of our stall and my goods.

Woolly pom pom baubles


It was a fun day with lots of Christmas carols, mulled wine wafting into the room and Santa greeting all the children. We saw some lovely items at other stalls and had lots of interest in our items. But recession has hit hard and not many purchases were made. We don't do it for the morning but it makes it hard when you're not breaking even.

I'll be selling some of cards and ornaments on Etsy soon but in the meantime you can message me if you're interested in any items.



A snapshot of Emily's part of the stall.

Her beautiful jewellary

Emily makes some lovely pieces. There are some that have small ceramic pieces she made and painted. As well as silver which is hand-hammered into intricate shapes. All finished off with leather made on these fair isles. My favourite are her cushions that she design the print and also digitally printed. All sewn by her with british leather tags. The photos don't do justice to the quality of her work!

Anyways here's a picture of the chaos I left behind.
