Karen Fields

I have found these lovely paintings by Karen Fields on Etsy. I would love to show them in the shop.

I adore the colours and themes, birds being one of my favourites.

The shop in November

We have got some lovely lights from Blaze-On and have filled our top shelves with them as well as displaying many of them around the shop. Blaze -On is a really fab company. Blaze-On supports 10 families in Thailand and is based on fair trade to all. The lights will last for 10 years.

I have found these teapots that I really like. I have got a bit of a thing about a teapot and the whole tea making process and the choc digestives that you have to have with the tea, mmmm. These teapots are for sale in the shop for £22 so please ring us on 10726 833099 if you'd like one.
This is how the shop is looking now my lovvies, crammed full. Please come and visit and have a cup of tea with us.

New Work for November

Today I have put out some new work and I'm including the incredible knitting of the hungry caterpillar. The whole story has been intricately followed and knitted in the most beautiful, delicate way. The handfelted finished butterfly is beaded and stitched and can be rolled up to fit in its fluffy brown cocoon. An amazing present for a child. If you'd like one made, please call me on 01726 833099.

Meanwhile, have been painting plates with little houses and gardens

An Update for 2010

I haven't been writing by blog for quite a few years as I was concentrating on my website (now disfunct) but now I am here and back for good!!

I am decorating lots of hearts that I sell in the shop. Some of these are very loving and say nice things about mums, dads, and sisters and brothers. But a good bunch of them mention things like hairy backs, hairy bottoms, dangerous feet and squabbling brothers and sisters.

I have also painted some x rated ones that only those who have strong hearts but I keep them hidden 'out back'

I can do all sorts of commissions and will include some photos of the plates, bowls, cups, hearts and stars that I use. You can have a pre-existing picture or I can make you up a new one.

My little love tokens start at £1.95 and the highest I charge for my work is £15 for a plate
