wedding origami

So some weeks back I made a customized crane pin. It was to decorate the grooms boutonnière at an origami themed wedding. The idea sounds amazing! So the lady requested the colour and the size. You can see in picture number two a scale comparison to a regular crane ;) All my items are hand made, so these kinds of customization are always possible! Just drop me a message for details!

Coming soon! :)

April Market

As you might know form my facebook page spamming, I have had a stall at my favourite market on Saturday. That would be the Out Of The Blue Drill Hall market ;) It just seems to be one that I always do. And I like it :) The location is great and they are normally pretty busy, full of lovely things.

So as per usual I took some snaps of my stall. They probably don't look overall that different, but you can spot some new things (that will make their way to etsy sometime soon.

For one, there is a few bits and bobs of assembled rainy jewellery....

And a preview of the one I have been REALLY excited about - the origami line! There are brooches, earring and necklaces... Again, they will make their way to etsy soon but if you are dying for one drop me a line :)


Otherwise, I can't believe it's already April... Been really REALLY busy lately! And it's only 8 months till my favourite time of the year... Christmas :) Haha, yes, I am a little bit crazy there probably... I am also really looking forward to summer. I have some holidays booked-ish, but I will not say anymore until it's a bit closer :)

Autumn collection

Of brooches and things :) The brown bear will undergo some adaptations though, as it came out pretty dark...

Things Yet to Come

Some sooner, some later :)

Drawing lots of trees :)

So I have decided to do this for REAL. Nearly two weeks ago I started doing this "a ... a day for a year" thing, and my own "..." is tree. You can find them (nearly) daily HERE.

Here are some samples...

 At the moment I feel they are just following a certain pattern, but I am curious to see how they will change over time... Because I am sure that they will! After all this has only been a couple of weeks, and there WILL be loads for sure! :)

Some of the ones I like better have also been turned into brooches...

I'm Growing a Forest

It's early days, but bear with me!
This is my finger to give you a scale. My fingers are quite small.

some whales...

...are just cuter than others!

A snippet preview of what is coming to my etsy store THIS SPRING! ;) Shame about the blue whale fella as his tail fell off :(

Finch Family

 

I haven't been posting much lately as I was busy with working on new things. In the meantime I took some new pictures of the birdies I already have. Here are: Bullfinch, Chaffinch and Goldfinch! They are all available on Etsy.

Busy in December!

December was probably my busiest month next to May (which was the Degree Show prep month). I've been away twice: far away (Stockholm) and not that far away (Lancashire). I did two craft fairs (one remotely... Thank you, Claire!), tons of bird brooches, which are now also available for purchase at the Drill Hall Arts Café. So yeah, this is the first time I have time to actually sit down and do some blogging!

These are the birdies. Soon to be available on Etsy!

And these are the fellas in the cabinet at the Drill Hall Arts Café.
