scribbly dog

This was done by never taking the pen off the paper ....took about one minute!

Old Collage Rediscovered and Framed

After a visit to Brighton a few years ago, found an old bit of MDF and used bits cut out from magazines and wrapping paper. This was a real 'one off'. Feel inspired now to do some more collage....its been a while.

It has been far too long since I blogged.....2 years!
Been rediscovering creating little things with paper and scribbly pen drawings and making little worlds. Thought this could be a new style of putting out posts for my Mini Beat Music sessions and its actually so enjoyable. Anything goes.

Craft Fair fast approaching............

Once again there is a deadline so in just over two weeks time, I am having a stall, of things I haven't made yet, at the St Dominic's Craft Fair on 13th June. Getting started was the hardest thing but now this little dog has been made, the ideas are spinning. What a mess I make as I go into battle, the place looks like it's been burgled, but there is nothing like the feeling of creating a little character like this one. Parting might be difficult :(

The trouble with a craft fair......

Is bringing back home all the things you hoped to sell :(

But on the plus side the cards went down well :)

well this seems to be the new obsession

Went to a friend's house in the country, helped her to clear out her workroom, found some macrame stuff and a book and then started trying to do these crochet owl wall hangings. Quite a challenge but I was determined........wondering how these could be developed ......another reason for insomnia !

Had a really great Saturday with a shared stall at the Belsize Green Fair, and then later performing some music from our CD 'The Rainforest and You'. Take a look at some of our handmade creations, cards and crocheted blankets. Made me realise that it would be lovely to have a stall somewhere maybe once a month. Have started making more and more and more things for future fairs

....we've only just begun!
