Looking for gifts or a treat for yourself?

The nights are drawing in, the beautiful sights and smells of autumn are with us and it’s time to plan for winter.

It’s been a while since I sent my last post. I’ve been busy on furniture commissions, making boxes and building my visibility at events and art & craft markets.

I’d like to let you know which events I’ll be at in the build up to Christmas. Each one will have a wonderful range of artists and makers exhibiting their work and it’s all available to buy! Click on each link below to find out more.

I’ll be selling my wooden boxes which come with stacking trays and distinctive latches. They make great gifts and can be used for all manner of things. I’m constantly excited by people telling me what they’re using my boxes for – storing collections of fossils, coins, watches for example – as well as the uses I’d imagined they’d be put to – jewellery, art/craft materials, sewing things, seeds, keepsakes, etc. I’ve expanded my range to include a larger box which fits A4 documents and a tall box for candles, long paintbrushes, etc. I can make bespoke boxes/trays to cater for particular purposes and special collections. I’ll also be available to discuss bespoke furniture commissions. Come and have a chat – it would be lovely to see you!
