Hottie Covers

My new product: hot water bottle covers.

Perfect for Mothers Day and scrummy on cold days. I have already claimed one to get me through this winter since the cost of electricity is about to go up.

I have made 7 and will be felting into the small hours of tomorrow in preparation for the market. I would like to have 10 ready.

Happy Friday!

Beautiful New Plant Pots

Here are my lovely new pots for herbs. They are going to be sold at the craft market at the Studio Potters tomorrow. 10am - 4pm, 1 Burt Street Cottesloe.

Hope to see you there!

Latest bits and pieces for markets

In preparation for the Mother's Day market in Cottesloe on May 2nd I have been experimenting with slightly more Mother's Day friendly items. The Little succulent pots generated lots of interest at Made On The Left but I am thinking little herb pots might be nice for next one.

I am also on the hunt for hot water bottles. I think felted covers will be the perfect Mother's Day gifts as the evenings start to get a little chillier. Difficult to find at the moment which leads me to believe they are either deeply out of fashion or in high demand (although I hope the latter to be the reason, I suspect the former is closer to the truth!). Since electicity bills are about to get a bit expensive a hottie might be just the thing for this winter.

Will have a few samples ready to post by the end of the weekend. Off to Bunnings to try to find some black Japanese lacquer to re-do an old table and chair set.

Happy autumnal stormy day!

4 whole months!

I have just been very inspired by a few gorgeous blogs and some very crafty ladies at the Bunbury Made on the Left market last weekend. I am suitably ashamed at the state of my neglected blog so I am on a mission to get it up and running.

My latest lovelies

A felted lovely that has been order by a friend of mine for her new nephew.

My latest felted lovelies. This little guy is an order from the Burt Street Bazaar. He is waiting to be packaged and sent.

Summer Skirts

Over the weekend I visited the Fremantle Bazaar and SODA which was having a bit of an open studio and a Crimbo sale. It was wonderfully inspiring to see so many creative people and being in the sensational Fleur Schell's studio just took my breath away! She is so brilliant.

I felt so inspired I ran up these two rather rough skirts and today I did a little bit of screen printing at the end of the day. So here are my two new summer skirts. These photos don't quite do them proud, however, I think I will enjoy wearing them.

Busy Bazaar

Apologies for not writing sooner. What a week! This week is the last week of term and I have been struggling with reports. I have even been dreaming of them.

But the end is in sight which is a huge relief.

Thanks to all of you who visited the Burt Street Bazaar. It was great fun and a big success. Suzie and Otto sold out! Plus a couple of orders, so I have been busy felting in my spare minutes to keep on top of it.

I am trying to make a few spares so I can put them in the Burt Street Gallery. As I make them I will post pics.

Thanks for keeping up with my fledgling blog.

Love Sarah
