Hello lovelies and happy Wednesday!
Hope you're all having a lovely week!
My week so far has been all about making more of my new cotton ticking bags and some of these pot holders.
I sold out of them a good while ago, but am finally getting round to re-stocking!
They're 8" square and are fully insulated to protect you and your surfaces from heat.
I'll be selling them for £8 each and will have them with me at next month's Taylormade by Yvette 's Yorkley Craft and Produce Fair, and Newent Markets Saturday Market.
I'm also planning on making some new fabric pots and cute bunting made from old maps, so watch this space!
Hope you have a lovely afternoon/evening!

farOpen Open Studios Art Trail
July 4th-12th 2026
We are so thrilled to announce the 2026 farOpen Open Studios Art Trail brochure is now LIVE on our website with fully interactive map to help you plan your journey around the Forest of Dean and along the Rivers Wye and Severn.

This year’s colourful cover photo is of Pam Moolman’s Glass:

Pam Moolman has studied and worked in the art of fused glass for the past 20 years. She and Ian Richardson, a metal sculptor, collaborate in glass and metal, creating large sculptures that respond to and interact with the changing light and the natural environment. She draws inspiration from the ever-changing beauty and seasonal rhythms of the Forest of Dean.

Visit her website here for more and see her work in person at Shared Studio 40.

To help locate artists and plan your visits, view the interactive map here

Artists will be opening their studios to welcome you in, offering you a behind-the-scenes tour of their studio and look at their work. You’ll see pieces in progress, finished artworks for sale and have the chance to chat with the artists about their inspiration and techniques.

Whether you’re curious about how art is made, fancy a relaxed day out exploring or are looking for something special to add to your collection, 55 studios will be opening their doors and inviting you into their creative spaces.

This year, by popular demand, all studios will be open daily from 10am to 3pm.

It’s worth checking individual listings though, as some artists will be open for longer hours.

You can download a digital brochure on the Faropen Website
or pick up a physical copy from various locations soon.

Hello lovelies and happy Thursday!
Apologies for my absence, but I've been giving a lot of my time and attention to our little Archie and our garden 😊.
I have managed to paint some flowers on my fairy doors though...think they look prettier for it!
I'm selling them for £10 each, and
I'll have them with me at the next Yorkley Sunday Craft and Produce Market on 10th May, or message me if you're interested!
Hope you have a lovely day!

Hello lovelies and happy Saturday!
We've had a lovely family day here today celebrating my lovely mum-in-law's birthday ( ), with mum, John, and a flying visit from and (thanks so much for the huge garden planter and garden ornament as seen in its new home on our garden table).
We're now chilling in the garden...hubby is in the sun and I'm with Archie in the shade of our gazebo 🥰.

Another family day planned for tomorrow...we'll be visiting Mallards Pike with our daughter ...can't wait!

I'll be back to my crafting next week, with some new creations to share with you 🥰.
Until then, I hope you're having a lovely weekend too.
