Just to give you a taster of the kind of things you`ll soon be able to buy……handmade brooches lovingly made with guinea foul feathers- i love these feathers they have an art deco feel to them- sometimes i`ll use leather, ribbon and sometimes semi precious stones….to create the centre of the brooch…the stone here is a smoky quartz- one of my favourite stones. Wear them on a scarf round your neck or as a head piece on a head band and they`ll add a handmade elegance to any outfit!

Below is one of my peacock combs…i twist and bend the peacock feather to create this….so each one is completely unique….they comb firmly in your hair, to be worn down the pub for some understated glamour ( i don`t like to save special things just for best) or for that special night out.

I am feeling so christmassy thanks to going to cut a christmas tree down yesterday! AND christmas at the mill….thanks for coming if you popped along….I`ve been taking photographs and getting my online shop ready so nearly there………will let you know when it`s up and running.

My ‘I love louise ‘ paper charm is finished! If you`e coming to christmas at the mill on thursday you can pick up your paper charm! If you can`t come on thursday send me an e-mail or tweet me with your address and i`ll post one to you…..

Getting ready for the launch of my online shop i gathered some creative friends together and we had a ‘photoshoot day’…. tea was drunk and cake eaten… it was such a lovely day thanks for all your help……here is a little look…

I have been working on a postcard design with design by day….the design is going to be a paper ring….inspired by my love of paper crafts and the paper dolls and houses i used to make as a child…..this idea has developed thanks to discussions with boy and Lou into you being able to wear it as a broach, pendant, ring or hair clip! It`s amazing what you can do with paper!
