Ugh, my least favourite part of the day post event....

Unloading the car!!!

12 x Bale arm crates.
1x dragon stand.
1x wicker basket.
1x heavy duty gazebo.
3x heavy duty event tables.
4x folding shelving units.
4x 25Kg leg weights.
1x folding chair.
1x sack barrow.
Various chaff, rubbish and stuff.

Once that's all in, the wood stove is getting lit, I am changing into shorts, checking on my slow cooker stew, sorting the printers, feeding the boys then pouring a glass of good Red w**e before chilling out.

Re-stocking my crates can wait till tomorrow!!!! My knees and hips are officially done.

How to turn a very modern lamp into a 1970's/2020's mashup!!!

Just add a vintage lampshade to an Octopus lamp and voila, your own fantasy light come to life.

I think this is actually quite cool.......and very quirky.

This Dummy 13 Lamp was ordered by a customer. They look fab on anything from an office environment to a kids desk or even on a shelf at home. One thing for sure is that they will be a talking point.

These can be printed in any colour combo from your favourite colours to football / Rugby club shirt colours.

They make ideal gifts and with Christmas coming up order early to ensure you get yours in time.

If you fancy a wonderful day out plus the chance to pick up Christmas presents from some great makers including me 😀, head over to Calke Abbey and pop into the Riding School.

I will be there every day from the 14th to the 23rd December.

Tufty the road safety squirrel but not as you remember him.

Hot out of the printer and heading for testing are these rather cute Articulated Red Squirrels.

One they pass the UKCA testing process, they will go on sale and will hopefully be available at Artisan Fayre next week and potentially the Rutland Pet Festival this Sunday where I will be in the fabulous Oakham Castle Grounds from 11am till 4pm.

Great news!!

A good selection of my book related items are now on display on the shelves of The Bookery bookshop in Swadlincote.

From bookends to book nooks, shelf sitters and statues, bookmarks, page holders and spine huggers are all there.

My Giant Sleeping Dragon shelf sitter has also taken up residence.

As lots of my items fit in with the Dark romance and spicy literature boom so they fit in perfectly with lots of books on sale.

Many thanks to Charlie and Andy for inviting me on board.
