Inspired: Scilly

I'm currently busy preparing for the Just Makers Craft Fair at RHS Harlow Carr which starts this Friday 2nd May and runs until 1st June. It will be the first year I've exhibited my work at this month long fair and I'm really excited to be a part of it. Pop in to The Old Bath House at the gardens if you're visiting as it promises to be a great event. In the meantime, here are some playful, colourful pieces that I've been making... Some of my latest makes inspired by the arrival of Spring... See more in my shop at  www.etsy.com/shop/inspiredscilly !

Spring has sprung! The Scilly scented narcissi have bloomed, the tulips are on their way and I've even seen a few butterflies!    Just this week I've also noticed a lot of birds around; a barn owl, a pair of buzzards and of course several garden birds who have been investigating our bird box in the garden... Let's hope someone takes up this lovely new 'des res'! This inspired me to make a nest treasury on Etsy celebrating all things birdy! Click here to view it! On the subject of nests, I've also been dabbling in a little crochet - here's a preview of my crochet pearl nest earrings. Hope you like them!
