Stall

I've just done a trial set up of my stall for tomorrows craft fair to make sure everything fits OK. The sign with my logo on was kindly donated by http://www.mister7.co.uk:80/

New Designs

Falling Leaves

Flower

Japanese Acer and Ruby

Wild Chervil

These are a few new designs I've been working on that I will be taking with me to the handmade fair in Maidstone this Saturday

Moo!

I was looking through Flickr the other day and came across these people called moo.com, they print lovely business cards and other promo material. They are eco friendly too, the cards are printed on paper sourced from sustainable forests and they come in a neat little holder made from recycled pulp. You can download your own images and have a different image for ever card if you like. I ordered a pack of business cards and some little tags for my jewellery boxes, they arrived today and I think they look really good, they were really quick too, I only ordered them 4 days ago.

Ring

This is my first ring, I'm very excited about it, it's turned out really well. I knew I wanted to do a flower but was just going to do it on a plain band, then I added some pmc paste to the top and liked the texture it created so carried it on round the whole band. I think it looks quite organic. The top photo is of the ring in progress, I had already fired the flower then put it together, this was drying ready to go back in the kiln

Bizarre Bazaar

This is a batch of jewellery all polished and ready to be made up

I will be doing the Maidstone Bizarre Bazaar this year, which is a handmade craft fair, this year it will be held in association with The County Town Farmers’ Market, and will be outside County Hall opposite Maidstone East station, on Saturday 27th June 9.00 - 1.00. So I've been busy preparing jewellery and promotional material. This is the first fair I've done so I need to think about how I will display everything, how much jewelley I will need and how many business cards etc, so much to think about!

This is a batch just out of the kiln ready for polishing.
