Every Thing is Peachy.....

I thought it was time to give you some eye candy =)  Here's a pair of what I like to call vine styled earrings using freshwater pearls and Swarovski crystals.  They are very cute and I've made them in several colours.  So what else have I been up to well I'm currently taking part in Etsy school (might of mentioned that already) and I've bought some new materials, as well as doing some research as I have some lovely ideas =)  But as always I am a mother and family things come first....  To anyone that might be reading this and might be wanting to do something creative but has a lot of demands on their time, I'd say if you can even do a little bit, just for yourself, even if no one else is going to see it or read it, do it! =)

Freshly treasured this morning =)

I created this treasury for Crafty Folk Team's Shop of the Week Polly Purple Horse and I choose Angela's beautiful butterfly card.  I went with the fresh Spring rejuvenation theme and went looking for these beautiful finds.

Happy New Year....

 I know it's February, but it's just the start of the Chinese year of the Horse and for some reason it feels more like the start of the New Year for me too.  It could be longer days and a little more sunshine between the rain clouds, what ever it is I'm starting to get into the swing of things again and the creative ideas are starting to flow.  Hopefully as always there will be some sunshine to take pics!

This is an example of the lovely things Sarah makes, to visit her shop click here!

I'm taking part in a Etsy school program this month to help my shop become even better.   I've been teamed up with a partner, Sarah of In The Bowerbirds Nest and along with other members of British Emporia Team we'll be helping each other out along this journey =)

Happy December!

It's that time again, the festive season is here!  In London I can report that we've had some cold and foggy days, the mornings can be painfully freezing!  The shops are all a buzz with shoppers and the carol singers are out in full force, often collecting for good causes.  

This year I've noticed an increase in handmade, vintage and buy local events which is wonderful!  I had a stall at the the lovely Little Paris in Crouch End and at Ashmount Primary School's wonderful Advent Market.  

Here is a collection of beautiful finds from Etsy for your viewing pleasure =)
