Christmas shopping...

Yesterday, I went to Hebden Bridge to pick up some Christmas gifts (which I'll share with you after the day - don't want to spoil any surprises!)  I called into my favourite shops, to see Hannah Nunn at Radiance (so many beautiful lights...,) I also bumped into Cathy Edwards (who makes gorgeous leather bags) at the Heart Gallery.  For the first time, I also called into Snug Gallery where there were so many lovely things...

Anyway, I've got one more commission to finish before Christmas, so, back to making wire windows!

Woodland creatures...

I have been running two afterschool clubs in local primary schools this half term - here are some of the wonderful woodland creatures year 4 pupils created at Crossley Fields.

Hedgehog!



Another hedgehog!

frog!

Tilt your head to see a very good duck!



Commission of the house in France...

Commission with the tree...

Here's one of two commissions I have finished in recent weeks (I'm keeping the post office busy!)

Looking up at the tree trunk...

Shadows!

Made by hand...

Samantha and I have been busy bees, and to prove it, here are photos of our stands at Made By Hand, which took place at Tredegar House in Newport, South Wales the first weekend in December.  It always takes us a long time to set up...  And I was almost the last to leave!

The Scarlet Spears...



Getting there...

We had a lovely weekend, and I'd like to thank my neighbour Sally Pawson, with her sunny disposition and jewellery, for keeping me entertained!  Samantha was very lucky to be next to Heather Shaw, a Huddersfield based jeweller (and our third transit van angel!)

Nostalgia meets design...

 

This was my stand at Nostalgia Meets Design on Saturday... It was a lovely fair, and I managed not to buy anything, so I was very proud of myself!
