i love the make lounge a whole clock

super-exciting as my work bestie s.d & i have booked onto a papercutting course at the make lounge. i've done a class before at the make lounge where we made cute soya candles in vintage teacups. it was such a lovely evening & much fun to hangout with other craft geeks.

i've been obsessed with paper cutting ever-since i discovered rob ryan about two years ago. he has an awesome shop & studio on columbia road. my rob ryan laser cut limited edition print is up there on my list of favourite belongings.

i've got from now until the 19th July to think of a design to take to the workshop...i think it should be whole clock themed for sure.

i love lexicon a whole clock

at my last market stall a very nice man bought the SMILE frame that I had made using vintage Lexicon playing cards...

he asked me if i would make a frame with the word MOON for his wife as this was her nickname & I said, yes I would be very happy to make it for you...and here is the finished product...a bargain I think for £8.

this is my favourite frame & jb likes it so much too that he said please don't sell it:

lexicon craft seems to be popping up all over the flattie...

if anyone would like a personalised lexicon frame then do let me know, i think they make lovely wedding presents.

i love craft a whole clock

i heart craft. i really, really do. a lot and a lot, lot more. i have been crafting handmade greetings cards for about 3 years now, picking it up more here & a little less there depending on how busy work becomes. here are some pics of my latest range...

unfortunately it came to my attention on father's day that the cute little people i use to make these particular cards don't travel all that well. 'was the man supposed to only have one leg & no arms?' ken davies asked. oooops. no. when i posted it all limbs were in tact & so i have made this little sign for the future:

i will be selling my crafty wares on saturday 9th July at the hackney homemade & vintage market in...hackney. here's a link: http://www.hackneyhomemade.com/?page_id=514

shiny & new

eeek! i've started a little blog. it's a bit new & over-whelming but hopefully i'll get to grips with it soonie.
