I've been busy busy busy!!

Well I must say I have been super busy over the past week, not only am I potty training my eldest Ruby which has been going exceptionally well, I have also been working on my wedding invites, I am hand making them all so its taking a while - but they'll be worth it as my little sample one looks fab! But I have also been very busy with orders - which I am so thrilled about!!!

I had a very unusual Tankard that I was asked to do for a Thank You glass for a returning bride. She was unsure what design they were after until they hit on the Best Mans nickname - Gerbil - and this design was born!


The Bride and Groom loved it and thought it was hillarious - so lets hope that Kev the Best Man thinks so too. I'll have to wait till October to find out tho as the Wedding is not until then.

I have also had a number of Frame orders too, however I have to hold fire to show you as they are surprise gifts and I wouldnt want for the intended new frame owner to stumble across the pictures. So keep your eyes peeled!

Mothers Day is tomorrow and I have had lots of bits to do for all those lucky mothers out there, however an urgent order came in Wednesday morning which meant I had to complete and send out that evening. But it was worth it. A bottle of Red Wine and matching wine glass! I love it and I hope the Mother receiving it does too!!



Hopefully it wont be too long until I can add those other frames.

Super Quick Photo catch up!


A birthday tumbler for a returning customer in the style of the Jack Daniels logo


I did a giveaway when I reched 200 likes on my facebook page and the lucky winner chose this design to give away to her mum for Mothers Day. Awwwww sweet!



And my favourite thing I have ever painted so far: This beautiful floral mix frame! So vintage and pretty - and I love the colour mixes within the flowers around the top right hand corner!




Got more frames to do tonight along with a very unusual tankard!!

My New Products!!

I have been thinking about doing some more ceramic/porcelain pieces since the plates and clocks. As Spring is on its way as well as Easter I thought that a Tea Set would be just perfect!!
Perfect to be adjusted to suit any time of year,
Perfect to be personalised
Perfect gift for Easter for those that dont eat chocolate or are looking for something different
And perfect to just sit and look pretty on your kitchen side board!!

What do you think?? I love it!!

Lazy Thursday afternoon

We are having a lazy Thursday today, we've stayed in and watched films, hardly moved off the sofa - its been lovely and full of cuddles and snuggles!!
However the girls are watching Toy Story now and seem quite happy so I thought I would sneakily creep on the old laptop to update you all on my latest pieces!!

So...... floral frames are going down a treat!! This is my latest - a duo of Orchids! I am actually quite in love with them and would quite like to keep them! :oP

I have also had a lot of new enquiries and orders this week! (which is faboo) I had a few nights off the painting as I have another hush hush job coming up which has needed quite a bit of my attention, so I was thrilled last night when I managed to get THREE orders completed ..... Yes! THREE orders! Thats 5 glasses in total.
Two out of the three orders are having to be kept secret until they have been given as gifts, however the third customer is quite happy for me to show these....... A set of 3 Thank You glasses for her Bridesmaids.


 Completed in her wedding colours, Ivory and Purple with the White rose as detail makes these glasses extra special and extra girly.


The Bride and Groom also provided me with a personal message 'Thank You for being our Bridesmaid' then detailing their names and date below.



Got some serious designing to do for this big secret job! I would love to say what it is but I am sworn to secrecy until Easter! Then there will be plenty about it!! x x x
